In Our Garden Blocks for September

This is definitely going to be my favorite quilt of all time.

The

In Our Garden Block of the Month blog hop

Hosted by Amy over at 

Sew Incredibly Crazy

has the cutest blocks and I've kept up with the blocks all year (so far).

This month, Pat over at Life in Scrapatch shared 2 of her designs and also added

 a bonus block!!!

These are blocks 15 and 16.

The pieced one is called, " Granny Garden Block" and the applique block is "Pumpkin Time."

Pat designed the bonus block to showcase the cute farm girl from Riley Blake Designs "Farm Girl" collection.  

 I was lucky enough to receive Riley Blake fabrics for this quilt.

I think the farm girl looks jazzy with  fabrics in Botanique by fabric designer Lila Tueller.

Of course I used my favorite fabric iron on adhesive by Thermoweb, HeatnBond® Lite, for the fusible appliques.

Dimensional Football Block - The secret is fusible fleece!

With the National Football League season beginning this week

I was inspired to use

my favorite Therm-o-web products to design this little football quilt block.

Today I am over at the Therm-o-web blog  sharing how to put this 

dimensional football applique quilt block together.

The dimension comes from a technique using

 Heat-n-Bond High Loft Fusible Fleece Interfacing.

I couldn't wait to make a few more blocks to put together a wall hanging for this super sweet quilt display my hubby (Duck Creek Design) made for me.

Find all the details over at Therm-o-Web today so you can start your little football quilt 

in time for the season!

SCORE!!!

CREATE A QUICK FALL PILLOW WITH THERM O WEB SPRAY ADHESIVES AND DECO FOIL™

I'm so thrilled to be over at the Therm-o-web blog today

showing how to create this pillow.

Fall is near and it is time to start thinking about fall décor.  Deco Foil™ in beautiful fall colors teams perfectly with the natural color of burlap to capture the warmth of fall decorating.

It's a quick and easy project for a crisp fall afternoon.

No one will know that you made it yourself.

All the details can be found by clicking HERE.

Have a great day!

Quilt Along Blocks

I started the year with several hops

and

have only really kept up with two.

I have fallen a touch behind in 

Alida (TweloQ) Designs "Play with Me" quilt along.

Here is the block for July:

" Hex game"

with a focus on English Paper Piecing.

This is my favorite block yet in this quilt along, but July was just too busy.

I'll catch up in August (at least that is what I keep telling myself).

After all, I have until Christmas.  :)

My next blocks are the August blocks for 

In Our Garden BOM blog hop

Hosted by Amy over at Sew Incredibly Crazy

These super cute blocks were designed by 

Kris over at Kris Loves Fabric.

Kris has the free tutorial and pattern over on her blog HERE.

I didn't take a shot of all the blocks so far this month, 

but I can't wait to put them all together.   

There is too much cuteness.

 I was lucky enough to receive Riley Blake fabrics for this quilt.

The fabrics are Botanique by fabric designer Lila Tueller.

Interfacing - The Perfect Foundation for Buttons

While every talks about fabric addiction I'm afraid I have another one.

BUTTONS!

I love to embellish my projects with buttons and today I am over at the 

Therm-o-Web blog

to show how to use Heat-n-Bond interfacing as a foundation for button art

and

Heat-n-Bond Fleece to make this tote to show off that art.

My daughter grabbed this tote right up!  

Deco Foil added the perfect touch to the apple.

If you are into buttons, need a lunch tote, or a teacher gift bag 

check this project out HERE.

It's a super fun way to spend an afternoon.
