Whew! I can not believe it has been 8 months since my last post. Time flies incredibly fast these days. So much has happened - good and bad in the last 8 months.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I still have my etsy shop stocked with many precuts and A LOT of destash. I have so much more to list. I am slowly sorting through my fabric. I know there is some I will never use and I need to reduce...just to fit in my space. </div>

To make matters more complicated, I have picked up cross stitching again. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I learned in 7th grade - so just last year, LOL just kidding. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's been about 30 years ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found that I saved my first project and some that I had never finished.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fast forward to today....yes I have the cross stitch bug right now. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am cross stitching like it's my job ;) (#pcstitching)</div>

Each day you start a new cross stitch ornament. It can be Christmas, Holiday, Halloween or whatever ornament you'd like. The goal is to start and finish as many as you can or want and have a head start on Holiday making. I have started 12 in 15 days. I took a couple of days off. </div>

I have finished stitching 4 of those. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have not made them into ornaments yet. I am enjoying the stitching and getting side tracked with new patterns after I see what everyone else stitches and what their color choices were.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That is what is great about Sherri's patterns, change the fabric, change the whole look. Plus you can modify some of the projects to fit your home décor and still end up with a fabulous table runner.</span></div>

It's month 9 of the Bella Skill Builder block sew along with the Fat Quarter Shop!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The last month of making blocks and we'll be on to sewing the quilt top together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will tell you, I was pleasantly surprised how well these blocks went together.</div>

The Lazy Angle blocks look intimidating for sure.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Lazy Angle ruler by Creative Grids makes cutting the pieces a snap.</div>

And the pieces matched up perfectly for me.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, it's closing time. <br />
I will be closing my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SpunSugarQuilts">etsy store</a> by the end of this year. <br />
First, I'd like to thank all my loyal Etsy customers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I couldn't have my business without you!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This subject has been weighing on my mind for a long while now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have literally been hem hawing around about how much time <br />
and effort I want to put into my quilting business. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love fabric. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaCtrRwDQOX6jNrb4LQhrIv6nN3GV0j48Jst9WBqNa_uHeI8itcwV6UpEF-Eq969JSGuohhD0iyU6NabGKxhgqibRYtshswcNoost5Z48gB4BYneGEPrNsr57I5Xb7QVHdHD8K/s1600/8400PP.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="726" data-original-width="800" height="290" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaCtrRwDQOX6jNrb4LQhrIv6nN3GV0j48Jst9WBqNa_uHeI8itcwV6UpEF-Eq969JSGuohhD0iyU6NabGKxhgqibRYtshswcNoost5Z48gB4BYneGEPrNsr57I5Xb7QVHdHD8K/s320/8400PP.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love sharing that joy with others. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love making - A LOT. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXHVIKuo98GViDtZqHER2-tJHT8Mby9Df1XLcQkwxb1ks6P9aL31tbdwhqtosR7hvMiJqaUJ_cNxaBLkgiC0VS7TfDc22NzHd1aej9A_SKnKjSzBV669SrFBmrUYf5lkY2byJI/s1600/IMG_1182.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXHVIKuo98GViDtZqHER2-tJHT8Mby9Df1XLcQkwxb1ks6P9aL31tbdwhqtosR7hvMiJqaUJ_cNxaBLkgiC0VS7TfDc22NzHd1aej9A_SKnKjSzBV669SrFBmrUYf5lkY2byJI/s320/IMG_1182.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Buying, receiving, cutting, packing and shipping takes a huge amount of time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So much time that I am just not sewing my projects the speed I want to.<br />
I have 24 quilts that need bindng.<br />
76 flimsy tops that need quilting and binding. <br />
Seriously.<br />
Designing new quilts was completely halted due to lack of time.<br />
I love to cross stitch as well and I just can't seem to find the time lately.<br />
I must admit that I have been working my 'day' job more but that is intermittent. <br />
I'm heading into the weeks of less day job responsibilities. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've decided to take advantage of that down time to totally focus on getting my stock in my shop reduced to as little as possible.<br />
I really want my 'space' back.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still going to be blogging...hopefully more! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be on Instagram of course...showing all the makes that I make. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you can understand. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you can help me move this fabric out of my studio!<br />
<br />
I have some brand new Atsuko Matsuyama Yuwa fabric coming this week...<br />
maybe today. <br />
It was order months ago and I am letting it arrive. <br />
There will be more fabric arriving this month and I won't stop it. <br />
I made a commitment to those companies to buy and I will. <br />
Some future orders I will have to cancel :(<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi_yU2G-_sobx8WzO-gZ73-uNRZtN9N_uSokzi-qtTee-ytNAg-2DVAvc8VwWIdVbErYUmL8WcXT-_xL19vyzwyrHQnLRaIlWYVe9JuPLK3WTD_Qr23FdZ__-mtJa4OloeFkw7/s1600/AT826346.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="956" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi_yU2G-_sobx8WzO-gZ73-uNRZtN9N_uSokzi-qtTee-ytNAg-2DVAvc8VwWIdVbErYUmL8WcXT-_xL19vyzwyrHQnLRaIlWYVe9JuPLK3WTD_Qr23FdZ__-mtJa4OloeFkw7/s320/AT826346.jpg" width="239" /></a></div>
<br />
To be fair to other shops also just getting new Yuwa, it will not be discounted at this time.<br />
<br />
However,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/SpunSugarQuilts">Beginning today 9/21/17 - 9/27/17 most items up to 30% off</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
9/29/17-10/10/17 most items up to 40% off</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
10/13/17-10/28/17 most if not all :) items up to 50% off </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
10/29/17-11/15/17 most if not all items up to 60% off</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At that point in November I will see what inventory remains. With holidays coming and time commitments elsewhere, I will have to determine the discount and when I can list the items - if at all.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ALL fabric cuts will be half yard or yard and can be cut continuous IF yardage is available.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fat quarters currently cut will be discounted but I won't be cutting additional individual fat quarters.<br />
I want to repeat... <br />
I will not be cutting additional fat quarters or <br />
taking custom requests at the discounted price. <br />
I just do not have time for that. <br />
<br />
I may start to just cut random low volume or rainbow bundles as the bolts reduce. <br />
I will try to refund shipping overcharges as much as possible.<br />
<br />
As I said, I am still quilting, making, blogging and Instagraming...<br />
and I hope this will help me be able to do even more of that in the future.<br />
Thank you for understanding.</div>

Quick post today as this is the start of the holiday weekend for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm hosting an online LulaRoe Pop - Up with my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/913822245424024/">Sister Marie Cook</a> on facebook tomorrow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm pretty excited to shop her lularoe because she just got a new box!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyhow, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sewing has been occurring and if you follow my Instagram,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
you've seen what I was working on this week after I finished these Starburst blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have been sewing right along this last month and finished the Starburst blocks on time :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you really look, you will see that they are not all the same. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I trimmed 2 of them one direction and the switched and I didn't even realize it :(</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's my quilt and I doubt most will notice, but dang it I tried to follow directions:)))</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Fat Quarter Shop has a video to show the best way to make your blocks!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They feature another Creative Grids ruler which I felt was invaluable to cutting the starburst pieces.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Be sure to check it out!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And all the blocks together are looking good!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One more month...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Might start to assemble the rows while I'm working on the last blocks :)</div>

Normally my blog is chock full of quilting stuff. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love my quilting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love me some fabric of course. I love all the colors. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When my sister Marie decided to become a Lularoe consultant I had no idea what it was. I had heard about the leggings and that was it. She started her business with the basic clothing kit. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You never know what will be sent - only the sizes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Well since I had never really experienced Lularoe I couldn't buy anything from her. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I didn't know my sizes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was pretty intrigued with all the options that she had and Disney collection was being released!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We decided to have a visit in Iowa and that gave me the opportunity to see her items and actually TRY them on lol.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you tried Lularoe? <br />
Yeah well the leggings were the first item I tried.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The fabric is incredibly soft. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm a fabric lover like I said - so I was hooked.<br />
I starting making outfits with her items and ended up with 3!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I took them to Iceland with me and found they were the best clothing for traveling there.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus I bought leggings for Elly<br />
my 10 year old.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She's a lularoer too now. She adores the leggings.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Interestingly, I sort of feel like Lularoe is like when you get into quilting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You stop at a quilt shop, green behind the ears since you've never made a quilt. The amount of fabric overwhelms you but you see a basic kit and decide to give it a try. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Within a month you have bought 5 kits, precuts, yardage and visited all the local shops within 100 miles :) and it doesn't stop there... you head online for a better selection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well Lularoe is much like a quilt shop. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You get personal service, are able to try on different styles and sizes and if you don't find what you are looking for, head to facebook and search for it. There are over 1000 Lularoe facebook pages. Lots of multi consultant groups and sale sites. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They even have their "unicorns" aka super hard to find prints or styles.<br />
Here are a few of my personal "unicorns"<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdJcxMAB61bDp_KydPAdtVdwhJn3b2wQIeXSkoaiccFnwkFZvqwPH-3FX6AqI58vPyl3R5pC2RSUdBVeLqrv8BeCQQ0SdHUnwz8qTxa_yrPNX3-92_X103HV_gf0ymLYG3rZ_7/s1600/IMG_1073.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1067" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdJcxMAB61bDp_KydPAdtVdwhJn3b2wQIeXSkoaiccFnwkFZvqwPH-3FX6AqI58vPyl3R5pC2RSUdBVeLqrv8BeCQQ0SdHUnwz8qTxa_yrPNX3-92_X103HV_gf0ymLYG3rZ_7/s400/IMG_1073.JPG" width="266" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Again it reminds of the elusive fabrics by Tula Pink like Neptune or Heather Ross Munki Munki. They sell on ebay for $$$$$. <br />
Same for the Lularoe unicorns, but just like quilting fabric lines, there are always new prints and you can quickly move on from that one print and find a substitute right?....right? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
maybe?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In support of my sister's new business with Lularoe, I decided to host a pop up. <br />
But she's in Iowa so I decided to do an online pop up to coordinate with the in home pop up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You are all invited. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The link to my pop up sale, which shows all her in stock styles and sizes, will be available Saturday September 2, 2017 starting at 9 am and will close Sunday September 3, 2017 9am. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
24 hours to shop and check it out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are interested in looking around, joining us for a live sale Saturday morning with a bunch of new items or just curious, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you can join <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/913822245424024/">Marie's Lularoe facebook group</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or use this address https://www.facebook.com/groups/913822245424024 to join her group!<br />

I'm quite a bit late this month with my Bella Skill builder blocks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a legit excuse...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was in Iceland! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
More on that in another post...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since our return, I have been slowly catching up and finally found time to write my blog post.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This month is all about half square and quarter square triangles.</div>

Think of the possibilities? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you don't want to make the whole quilt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Frame one, mini quilt, potholder and on and on...</div>

Again, a wonderful way for Lori to show you how the templates can be used for other projects, not just the Bee Happy Quilt.</div>

Unfortunately, my Super star pillow is just a quilt top...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I'm pretty sure I will have it finished for the next 4th of July.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a totally cool retreat where I made some new friends, hung with old friends and reconnected with one too. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Way more than I could've asked for.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I knew I wanted to try at least one block because</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have never made this particular pattern before.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr-DnYGkf84jUKJ-GSWf_zVPJO6YyLI0pwwlGvVroAABAKzwnk25tJNTq8sHzqxXl7JZENnF0N0mGusASOKjlhjjLVNzEVU-jSLAb4uCtFhv_95BCt6KeO5LyHHuslDXq0lnKF/s1600/IMG_0323.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr-DnYGkf84jUKJ-GSWf_zVPJO6YyLI0pwwlGvVroAABAKzwnk25tJNTq8sHzqxXl7JZENnF0N0mGusASOKjlhjjLVNzEVU-jSLAb4uCtFhv_95BCt6KeO5LyHHuslDXq0lnKF/s320/IMG_0323.JPG" style="cursor: move;" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The pattern suggests using the <a href="https://www.fatquartershop.com/triangles-on-a-roll-triangle-paper?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=07July17">Triangles on a Roll</a> for the flying geese.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Which are sale at the Fat Quarter Shop this week with the code Triangle15</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you know, I have just recently tried the Flying Geese ruler which was a great success and now this technique.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hmm both work so well that it's hard to say which is better. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Both are accurate, each have positives and negatives.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I decided to raid my 2.5" strip stash to make this quilt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I could have easily used a Jelly roll but I wanted to use my colorful stash.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I paired those happy colors with a bunch of low volume light background prints that I have been collecting. I think there are at least 48 prints in the quilt.<br />

Sorry for the dark picture this time. The true colors show up in the group photo.</div>

I used the recommended triangles on a roll to make these blocks. </div>

If you follow me on Instagram then you know that lately I have been digging into ALL of my UFO's.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have lists and lists. It's embarrassing enough that I won't tell you the grand total.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've cataloged all kits, unfinished projects,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
quilt tops that need quilting (Flimsy's), </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Quilts that need binding and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
items I am donating.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was determined NOT to start another project until I got a handle on the UFO's.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well that lasted about a week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did bind 2 quilts on my list BEFORE I started this new little mini...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I really should stay focused on my UFO's for a little while longer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

While I was sorting scraps (part of this whole organizing thing) I noticed a fabric that I had with all 50 states on it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Inspiration struck. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to make another <a href="http://temeculaquiltco.blogspot.com/2016/03/welcome-spring.html">Temecula quilt Welcome Spring</a> mini in red, white and blue.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is the third welcome spring mini that I have made. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did one in spring colors and one in Halloween/fall inspired colors last year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are small, quick,use only scraps and are totally addicting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I EVEN hand quilted it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love to decorate for the season.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I always have and so with Memorial Day and soon after Fourth of July...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
well why not look for some more holiday décor?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
love this wooden flag with all 50 states that I picked up just the other day.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here's my patriotic mini again. I chose states with specific meaning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Where we have lived and all close relatives.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This little project was just what I needed to stay on track on my organizing and UFO's.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm heading in to do some more sorting this weekend.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What are your memorial day plans? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope it involves a little making.</div>

Flying Geese....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
super simple with the Quilt in a Day Flying Geese ruler.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Truth:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have literally had the Flying Geese Ruler for over 10 years....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
never used it once until I made these blocks...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
seriously.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now after making these, I can not figure out why I waited so long.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love that ruler because the geese turned out perfect.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Fat Quarter Shop has created a video tutorial on how to use the Flying Geese ruler here:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have been participating in quite a few quilt alongs lately.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The honest truth is that I find if I am quilting along,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm FAR more likely to finish the quilt top. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now I haven't been very good about getting the tops quilted.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I was in Ohio I had a fantastic machine quilter that was only a 20 minute drive from my house. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I haven't found a quilter here yet. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am sure there are many... I</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just haven't made time to meet any or take any quilts to them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I NEED to soon as I am drowning in quilt tops.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This <a href="http://www.fatquartershop.com/spellbound-pdf-quilt-pattern">Spellbound </a>quilt pattern is from It's Sew Emma.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2 jelly rolls and a few yards of fabric and voila...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a quilt top.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I chose Sugar Pie by Lella Boutique and Compositions by Basic Grey.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The pattern is straight forward and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
using the <a href="http://www.fatquartershop.com/creative-grids-90-degree-double-strip-ruler">Creative Grids 90 degree double strip ruler</a> really makes it EASY. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I sewed this in between other projects. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess you could say it was my leaders and enders quilt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's a big quilt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started to lay it out on my foyer floor.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can see how well that went....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My helpers were not going to have all that fabric laying around.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was too much fun for them to drive into the blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I finally brought my design wall upstairs and assembled it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By the time I was ready to take pictures the sun went down :(</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can still see the secondary pattern created by careful fabric and block placement.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now I must confess....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I thought I had purchased the coordinating yardage for this quilt...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
somehow I didn't buy it with my last Fat Quarter Shop order.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First I called 5 quilt shops within driving distance. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of them had a few bolts of Composition but it was 35 minute drive.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to search my stash and I chose a melon colored fabric from the Sweet fabric line from about 2007-8? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also found that Ella Blue Basic Grey fine lines coordinated pretty well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided that if I am holding on to all this stash that I might as well start using it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
How about you? Have you been using your stash?</div>

I have had my planner since October.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have started all 6 quilts - lol seriously.</div>

This week's quilt is the Fat Quarter Flirt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I traveled to Utah last October for a quilt retreat with Lori, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
she showed us her version of the Fat Quarter Flirt in "busy backgrounds".</div>

you know that prints that are too colorful for a project or too light for another....</div>

I have the It's Sew Emma Orange Peel templates in the exact sizes I needed for these blocks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Interfaced petals are basically done by tracing the shape on the smooth side of the interfacing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Trim to about 1/4" from the outline.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Place the interfacing rough side down on the right side of the fabric. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sew around the outline, make a small slit in the back of the petal interfacing and turn right side out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Finger press the edges.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I pinned my petals to the background and then ironed them in place.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I sewed my appliques to the background squares by machine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I learned after making 64 of the petals that using a smaller stitch length worked best.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I tried to coordinate my applique thread with the petal fabric.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When stitching the blocks together, the interfacing petals were quite a bit more bulky than I expected them to be. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A tip is to begin stitching at the beginning of the block furthest away from the where the petal tips meet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When you stitch close to the points, slow down to make sure that you maintain the 1/4" seam allowance.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I might also suggest starting with the 4" petals first, smaller petals are definitely more challenging.</div>
