Log Cabin Entries – Time to Vote – Project QUILTING
Every week that challenges are due I feel like I hold my breath and open up flickr fifty times a day to see if someone posted their projects. My biggest fear is that no one will enter – luckily that hasn’t even come close to happening! Each week I am blown away by the amazing projects that people come up with – this week was no exception. For those of you just tuning in you can read more about Project Quilting Here: http://kimscraftyapple.blogspot.com/2010/04/project-quilting.html and about the fourth challenge of Season 1...
read moreMy Project QUILTING RECYCLE Challenge – How It Happened…
I figured with the next project QUILTING challenge due at NOON tomorrow I had better put up my little ‘story’ about my last challenge piece… There is a very long story to go with this piece. When I saw the challenge, a few ideas ran through my mind (crazy quilt, jean quilt, etc.) but then I thought – converge a painting! I have a painting in my living room I wanted to do first but it turns out it’s painted on some sort of board…can’t sew that. Since I was very limited on time I finally decided to give in and cut...

And now that the public winner and the random drawing winner have been chosen it’s time to announce the Judges top 3! Coming in third place with an average score of 8.20 is Karen’s Crafty World! Here’s what the judges had to say: Judge 1: So bright and summery! I love the way you used the floral print, well balanced and placed. I also love repurposed creations! Judge 2: This is a lovely quilt. Changing the quilting threads as you go down was a great choice. The silk flowers add a little extra dimension, and I think you chose the...

Here’s what one of the judges wished to share about this weeks entries: “I was really moved by how many of these entries used clothing/fabric that the quilter associated with a family member/beloved pet, and that these aren’t just a “project” but are now heirlooms that these quilters (or their recipients) will really cherish for years to come. I love that Project Quilting and this specific challenge that Diane came up with has taken on a life of it’s own and was the catalyst to the creation of these...

I literally just walked at least a mile in crazy Virgina heat to get this post up (otherwise you’d have to wait until Tuesday). Man is it hot! AND you have to pay to use the internet at Starbucks! BUT, it was worth it when I opened up the flickr account and saw all the amazing entries! ***Also, with that said, if you notice any errors/mistakes please let me know and I’ll fix it as soon as I have internet access again – sorry in advance! – I’m doing this as fast as I can so I can join my kids in the pool!*** For those of you just...

I was so pleased to check out the Project QUILTING Facebook Page and see a link to a blogpost talking about a project finished for the first challenge of season 1 – three challenges later! I just love that Jennifer didn’t just give up and stop her project just because she couldn’t make the deadline. I’m glad that the challenge inspired her to make such a fabulous piece and I hope she continues to work through the challenges – even if they’re at her pace instead of the challenges. (and I hope she continues to share them with us...

Alexander Henry – Starling and Mod Dot Half Yard Set I am happy to announce that once again, I have a guest judge for this week! I would like to introduce to you – Kris, from fabricalacarte and bonbonsandmore. Here’s her quilting story she’d like to share with you: I’ve always been interested in creating. Up until about 20 years ago, I had not tried my hand at quilting. I have sewn clothing for me and my family my whole life, but when I discovered quilting, bye-bye garment making! Inspiration I have had a brick and mortar...
