“Let’s Get Scrappy is about how to decide, not about what to make.”

Let’s Get Scrappy is an on-demand online course that helps quilters overcome decision fatigue and finally make sense of their overflowing scrap bins. With four hours of step-by-step video instruction, you’ll learn simple systems for organizing, piecing, and pressing your scraps—so you can stop overthinking and start sewing beautiful, coordinated quilts with confidence and joy.

Spin It Around

This week, I had fun playing with the Westalee Spinning Ruler #21……

This one is different because if that TINY little dot at the bottom….

See what I mean…..

I love how easy this design is to make, and I especially love that you can keep adding to your hearts’ content!!

Now I need to make a quilt with blocks that will highlight this fun design!!

Simple ruler….WONDERFUL design!!

Last week we had fun with the Westalee Spin-E-Fex Ruler number 16, ending up with this magnificent wreath design…..

Today, we are going to use a ruler that looks similar, but produces a completely different design…..

I really do enjoy the design that this produces….

….and like it even better when you quilt it BACKWARDS…..

Next week, we will play with a different sort of ruler and end up with a completely different design!!

Be sure to come back for more!!

Spinning Fun

Today, we are going to take a look back into the video archives and view the fun things that you can do with a Westalee Spin -E-Fex ruler!!

Number 16 is the ruler of the week…..

Doesn’t this look great!!

I truly enjoyed trying various designs on this brown strip quilt…..

Come back next week and we will look at another of the Spin-E-Fex designs!!

Quilting – TOO much or TOO little?

As I have mentioned, this summer I have been working on an online class called “Let’s Get Scrappy”. It is all about learning to use your scraps…..without losing your mind in the process!

If this sounds interesting to you, and if you would like first notice of when the class goes live, please click on the photo and leave me your information…..
