What’s on the wall Wednesday

When I switch on my Longarm machine “Daisy” in the morning I like to leave it to warm up for about 15 to 20 minutes. So I like to make a block or two of a project.
I only work on these blocks while I am waiting for Daisy.
They are made up of reproduction type fabrics I have left over from other projects over the years.
Helenjuuldesigns.com has fantastic little inexpensive bundles of Fat 8th I also like to use on these kind of projects if my stash is short on colours.
Some are more perfect than others but I don’t worry too much if there are some imperfections.
I think a sampler quilt is the best way to go when only doing a block or two a day.
This is the quilt I am making , Lori Smith is one of my favourite quilt designers.

Lene’s Temperature Quilt

Lenes fabelagtige Temperature Quilt, så smuk, og er du ikke bare vild med de danske flag, der markerer vigtige datoer i hendes liv.
Julia quiltede denne quilt på Poppy the Moxie Longarm hos DaisyQuiltsForYou/QuiltedCloth.
Hun har brugt mange forskellige trådfarver og quiltet det i organiske, lige linjer.

The un-quilted quilt top.
Farvepaletten og designet er Helene Juli fra Helenejuuldesigns.com, er de ikke vidunderlige?

SUPER FAST REPRODUCTION MINI QUILT

Super-fast reproduction mini quilt is a fun and fast mini quilt that can be made using yardage, scraps or 5″ squares. There is only one type of block to make then when laying out the blocks you turn them to get your desired results.

Superhurtig miniquilt med reproduktion er en sjov og hurtig miniquilt, som kan laves af metervarer, rester eller 5″-kvadrater. Der er kun én type blok at lave, og når du lægger blokkene ud, vender du dem for at få det ønskede resultat.

I used a fat 8th bundle from Helenejuuldesigns.com plus some yardage.

For one block, cut 1 – 3″ x 4.5″ rectangle, 1 – 2″ x 3″ rectangle in a small print reproduction fabric, mine are red and cut 1 – 2″ x 2″ square in blue.

Sew the blue 2″ square to the red 2″ x 3″ rectangle

Then sew the red 3″ x 4.5″ rectangle to this unit to make the block.

Wow, that was easy, now make a total of 36 blocks.

Sew the blocks together into 6 rows of 6, orienting the blocks as shown.

This versatile block can be also used to make a lovely full-size quilt or using fun bright colors for a child’s or baby quilt.

I have attached files in Danish and English and also templates for the hand-piecing quilters out there!

Denne alsidige blok kan også bruges til at lave et dejligt quilt i fuld størrelse eller med sjove lyse farver til et børne- eller babytæppe.

Jeg har vedhæftet filer på dansk og engelsk og også skabeloner til de håndhæklede quiltere derude!

I hope you enjoy making this month’s mini quilt. If you have any requests for a mini quilt design you would like me to make email me with your ideas.

Jeg håber, du vil nyde at lave denne måneds miniquilt. Hvis du har nogle ønsker til et miniquiltedesign, du gerne vil have mig til at lave, så send mig en e-mail med dine ideer.

Next month I’m thinking about a autumn or spooky Halloween style.

Have a lovely weekend.

I næste måned tænker jeg på en efterårs- eller uhyggelig halloween-stil.

Hav en dejlig weekend.

Jul i juli

En sjov lille tablerunner, meget nem at lave og en god måde at bruge nogle af de julestoffer, vi alle har i vores stash.

Begynd med at sy rammene fast på midterblokkene

Jeg har vedhæftet en PDF af det fulde mønster nedenfor på dansk og engelsk.

A fun little tablerunner, very easy to make and a great way to use up some of those christmas fabrics we all have in our stash.

Start by attaching the sashing to the centre blocks .

I have attache a PDF of the full pattern below in Danish and english.

Derefter den øverste og nederste indre kant.

Then attach the top and bottom inner border.

Derefter de ydre sidekanter

Then attach the side outer border

Til sidst den øverste og nederste ydre kant.

Finally the top and bottom outer borders.

En fin detalje ville være at tilføje nogle applikerede traditionelle heste som denne.

A nice touch would be to add some applique traditional horses like this one.

Her er nogle idéer til quiltning, du kan lave med din Walking Foot eller Freemotion Rler Foot og en lineal.
God fornøjelse og nyd en fantastisk jul i juli!
