Pin Cushion Doll Continued

I have been so busy with fun activities lately that I have missed my blogging!


Ski season has arrived! I joined a ladies downhill ski club and am going weekly to Marquette Mountain. I have downhill skiied only a few times before and broke my arm six years ago skiing in Montana. I was VERY nervous about trying downhill skiing again!


Here is our beginner ski class as the top of the chair lift. We made it up AND down safely! I am the one on the right with the new red helmet!




Back to quilting and sewing....a few weeks ago, I blogged about attending a pin cushion doll class. It was very fun! Paulette is an excellent teacher. Here is my "girl".



Sally attended the class with me. Here is a gang of girls...from the left they are Paulette's class sample, Sally's doll, and then mine. We think Sally's looks like Barbara Streisand.



Well today, I am off to visit Jerri's Quilt Patch in Norway, Mi. They are having a fantastic Superbowl sale that can't be resisted!

Happy quilting,

Amber

New Quilt Sash Calculator

I added a new calculator to MyWebQuilter.com to quickly calculate quilt sash fabric requirements.  Just enter the number of columns, rows, block size and sash width.  Additional options include calculations in inches or CM and including a border the same size as the sash.  Click on Calculate to get your sash fabric requirements, quilt dimensions and instructions.  All the MyWebQuilter calculators are easy to use on your mobile phone!

Quilt Border Calculator

There are times when you are making a quilt when you need to add borders to increase the size of the quilt.  You may be trying to get the quilt to a specific size.  You may be limited by how much fabric you have. The MyWebQuilter.com Quilt Border Calculator  is free and can help you decide what size borders to add to your quilt. Enter the size of your current quilt and some border sizes you are considering.  Click calculate to get quilt dimensions and fabric requirements.  Change the border sizes and recalculate as often as you want. 

Lawyer's Puzzle Quilt Block Pattern

I am on a roll adding more traditional quilt blocks to www.MyWebQuilter.com . I just added the Lawyer's Puzzle - also known as the Barrister's Block. A 24 block quilt using this block looks like this: You can find the free quilt block pattern here . I love this example of the Lawyer's Puzzle painted on a barn. BTW - Here in the USA there is significance to showing this pattern in green. It is the only green you will have left after paying your lawyer! Happy quilting! Amber
