<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">One of the things I love about Lori's designs is that they work so well with my own fabric preferences! While I adore Lori's sweet style, I prefer something a bit bolder and brighter! For my blocks, I chose some (now hard to find) Tula Pink from her Salt Water and Prince Charming lines. Often I have small bits of precious fabric left over from a larger quilt and I just can't get rid of them! This is where these scrappy quilt/project ideas come in so handy! I got to use some of my favorite fabrics in an item that can be seen daily! </span></div>

Sooooooo, in case you haven't heard, I have my own show! A webseries on QNNtv! It's a FREE show, you just have to sign up for a FREE QNN account. (You can click the link on the upper left part of my blog to go to the site.) The concept of the show is pretty simple: I use a more traditional/vintage pattern featured in an upcoming magazine issue and remix it to make it my own, slightly more modern version! That's not all, we also have a guest every episode showign their remix so you'll get even more inspiration!!! </div>

I was secretly thrilled I was one of the few people who got to peek in on her process: agonizing on which prints were best, indecision on exactly what shade of blue was just the right one, etc. I was {almost} as excited as she was when <a href="http://www.windhamfabrics.net/php/fabricshop/fabricshop.php?a=designers">Windham Fabrics</a> picked up her line, <a href="http://www.windhamfabrics.net/php/fabricshop/fabricshop.php?a=sc&Category=941">Curious Dream</a>! I mean, come on! This is the same fabric company that has artists like Heather Ross and Lotta Jansdotter! It is unbelievably rewarding to witness a friend's dream come true. I am so proud of her and all the hard work that went into this collection, inspired by Alice in Wonderland. I HIGHLY recommend browsing her <a href="https://issuu.com/windhamfabrics/docs/curiousdream_issuu">stunning look book</a> for this collection. It is jaw dropping! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">So what happens when one of your good friends designs a fabric collection? You get mail like this!!!! Then you realize you actually have to open the bundle and cut the pretty, pretty fabric...... drat! </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I'm not going to lie, the timeline for the blog hop wasn't great for me. I had my own deadline for 9 (yes, NINE) quilts to complete, but I was not going to miss out on a chance to create something with this beautiful collection and SHOUT about how stinkin' happy I am for Angela!!! She always teases me about how fast I am so I needed to live up to the hype! I created 3 different projects with Curious Dream!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">First up is a simple patchwork pouch. I love making little pouches like this! You don't need much fabric and it's a fun way to showcase the entire collection, especially that little rabbit who is a personal favorite of mine.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I'm a bit of a subscription box addict. There! I admitted it! This is the first time I've tried the <a href="https://www.stashbuilderbox.com/">Stash Builder's Box</a> and part of the reason I was drawn to it was because it includes 3 YARDS of fabric (3 one yard cuts). So I decided to challenge myself to see what types of projects I can make using these three coordinating yards! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I received these three beautiful prints from <a href="https://maureencracknellhandmade.blogspot.com/">Maureen Cracknell</a>'s Nightfall Parade collection. Please note, not everyone receives the same prints, but they're all from the same collection. Since I got some larger scale prints, I decided I needed a project to showcase Maureen's beautiful artwork! Hello! Pillowcases! I realized I would have some fabric left so I also designed a matching zippered pouch to put the pillowcases inside--instant gift!!!! Reality check: there are plenty of tutorials out there for pillowcases, so my method is my no means new. Also, I do not prewash my fabric. Pillowcases are very forgiving. I've made over 50 and have never had an issue washing and drying them. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">From Print 1 & Print 2 (main body of pillowcases and accent pieces) cut:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">(1) 1.5"xWOF</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Trim selvedges off so each strip is 40"-42" wide. The main idea is to get all the WOF pieces the same width, but without selvedges. This width can vary slightly depending on the width of the fabric you are starting with. I was able to trim off all the selvedges and each strip of fabric be 42" wide. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Fold and press the 1.5"x42" (ish) strips in half longwise. You should end up with two 3/4" x 42" strips.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Next, lay the main body of the pillowcase RIGHT SIDE DOWN on top of the cuff and accent piece. Pin. For my pillowcases, I used opposite fabrics for the accent pieces and the main body. Meaning, if the main body of the pillowcase was the owls, then the 3/4" accent strip was the bunny print. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Pull up the bottom of the cuff and pin to the existing layers. The RIGHT side of the cuff should be touching the WRONG side of the main body of the pillowcase. You should have one long tube with FOUR raw edges pinned on one side.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A little over 2 years ago I had the pleasure of meeting the sweet ladies (Liz and Elizabeth) from <a href="http://www.simplesimonandco.com/">Simple Simon and Co.</a> for the first time. If you've ever met them in person you'll understand when I say there was laughter AND tears (the joyful kind). Anywho! When they asked me to be apart of their blog hop celebrating their new fabric line, <a href="https://www.rileyblakedesigns.com/shop/category/riley-blake-designs/coming-soon/four-corners-1/">Four Corners, from Riley Blake</a>, I happily agreed! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When I got the fabric I squealed a bit--I mean, come on! Bright, graphic prints plus some metallic thrown in? YUM! I decided to see where my sewing mojo took me and just began slicing and dicing! I thought I was making a mini quilt, but I ended up with a piece of fabric the perfect size for my <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/sewing/home-decor/1-hour-basket-tutorial/136408?rceId=1445308117191~a5sjzgho">Hour Basket</a>! Heads up, Pellon is coming out with a <a href="http://www.pellonprojects.com/products/ff78f1-flex-foam-1-sided-fusible/">new fusible foam </a> soon called FF78F1 Flex Foam (which I used for this basket). It ROCKS! </span></div>

The Hour Basket didn't use up much fabric from the fat quarter bundle I had so I decided to add a <a href="http://www.incolororder.com/2011/10/lined-drawstring-bag-tutorial.html">Lined Drawstring bag</a>! This orange-red cross print on light grey is my absolute FAVORITE from the line! </div>

I still had fabric left so I made a little zippered pouch with a curved bottom (just use a bowl to cut the corners into a round shape). Loving the peek of metallic in the lining on this one!</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For those of you new to my blog, welcome! My name is Kelly and I am half of the pattern design team at <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/user/4391285/pattern-store?_ct=fqjjuhd-ijehu&_ctp=161050,4391285">Hearts and Bees</a> and I'm an avid Instagram user named "<a href="https://instagram.com/kelbysews/?hl=en">kelbysews"</a>! Ever heard of the <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/sewing/home-decor/1-hour-basket-tutorial/136408">One Hour Basket</a>? That's me! :) When <a href="http://artgalleryfabrics.com/">Art Gallery</a> contacted me about making something with one of their new lines for 30 Days of Sewing with AGF, I immediately jumped at the chance to play with <a href="http://www.liveartgalleryfabrics.com/imprint.html">Imprint</a> by Katarina Roccella! I love love love these colors! They are feminine without being overly girly! I was also impressed with how well these fabrics work in quilting, home-dec, and apparel sewing! Super versatile! Plus, if you have never worked with Art Gallery fabrics before, you simply MUST try them! They are amazingly soft and have a fantastic hand!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I wanted to find a pattern that would showcase the fabrics and play into their modern, fresh feel. I thought this <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/quilting/other/sugar-loaf-block/149341?_ctp=149341&_ct=iuqhsx-kdyluhiqb-huikbj-fqjjuhd&NAVIGATION_PAGE_CONTEXT_ATTR=PATTERN">Sugar Loaf block</a> by <a href="http://woodenspoonquilts.blogspot.com/">Wooden Spoon Quilts </a>was a happy match! The <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/quilting/other/sugar-loaf-block/149341?_ctp=149341&_ct=iuqhsx-kdyluhiqb-huikbj-fqjjuhd&NAVIGATION_PAGE_CONTEXT_ATTR=PATTERN">block</a> is FREE on Craftsy! I chose to alternate the triangle Sugar Loaf blocks with simple squares so you see hints of the designs in the triangles, but get full design in the squares. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The only change I made to the Sugar Loaf pattern was to enlarge it to 6.5" unfinished (6" finished). I simply did this during the printing process by increasing the scale. I adore how it turned out! The finished quilt is 42"x48" perfect as a small lap quilt or for your favorite toddler's bed! Thanks for stopping by!!! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hi Farm Girls!!! Thanks for stopping by my blog on the <a href="http://fatquartershop.blogspot.com/p/farm-girl-vintage-sew-along.html">Farm Girl Vintage Sew </a>Along hop! My name is Kelly and you may have heard of my <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/pattern/sewing/home-decor/1-hour-basket-tutorial/136408">One Hour Basket Pattern</a> recently. I also co-write patterns with my friend, Ali, for <a href="http://www.craftsy.com/user/4391285/pattern-store">Hearts & Bees</a>. Fat Quarter shop sweetly sent me this book to try out and I have to tell you, I adore it! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The book has 45 sampler blocks in two sizes (6" and 12") along with patterns for 10 quilts, 2 table runners, a table topper, and potholders!

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">While I love Lori's style, it's not really "me" so I decided to see what would happen if I made one of the blocks with some of my favorite fabrics! I know you all were expecting Anna Maria Horner (and truth be told, I ALMOST used it), but I decided to bust out my Heather Ross Mendocino and some Essex linen blend in Olive. This is my first time using that color Essex and I really love it! </span></div>

I recently ordered a 4" design roll of Tula Pink's latest line, Elizabeth, from <a href="http://www.hawthornethreads.com/fabric/pre_cut/jelly_rolls/elizabeth_4_inch_design_roll">Hawthorne Threads</a>. I ordered yardage too, but I knew I would want to make something right away so I splurged and got the roll. I made this super quick and easy pattern I thought I'd share!</div>

I've had many friends tell me about the Sewline glue pen for a while, but I stubbornly kept hand basting my hexies. I finally caved and gave it a try. Ummmmm, I feel really stupid I didn't do this sooner! While I use the Sewline pen, others have said Elmers and other cheaper options are out there. Personally, I like the small pen shape of the Sewline and I know it's safe for my fabric, but feel free to experiment. No one is paying me to promote a certain brand, I'm just sharing my experience. Here's a quick little video of how it works!<br />

I'm currently making two hexie projects, but the one I'm most excited about are these large (2" per side) hexies that take a charm size square to make. I'm using almost every print Anna Maria Horner has ever produced! I've almost finished with the hexie part--last count was 260!--but now I have to start on the tedious triangle making. Boo for boring!<br />

I was super grateful for the rotating mat since I decided to make a block with half-square triangles that finish at 1.5" This mat was perfect for trimming all my HSTs down to the perfect size! Tiny things are scary, but the right tools can make a project so much easier!</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I love love love chevron quilts, but I really really really hate trimming half-square triangles and I never mastered the whole rectangle method. When I figured out I could make a chevron with squares and not have to constantly worry about block orientation, I was stoked!!! I'm not reinventing the wheel here folks. I'm sure some smarty pants out there figured this method out ages ago and has a tutorial on it, but I have never seen it so I'm guessing a few of you haven't either! I'm also cutting out a lot of work and listing the fabric requirements and dimensions to make 4 different sizes so you don't have to do any math, yay! That being said, I've only actually made two of the sizes below. I sketched and did some rough cutting diagrams to make sure I had the right fabric requirements for the others. If you find a mistake in the larger sizes, please let me know! You can alter my math to fit whatever size squares you want to use, these are just what I chose. There is no right or wrong! Make it your own! I'd love to see what you make so if you post on IG, Twitter, etc., tag me @kelbysews</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I've cut and lined up my big and little squares to make the 20" chevron mini. Be sure you're happy with the order you place the big squares. You want to make sure there is some contrast between any two fabrics that are next to each other so you can see the chevron shape. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Next, shift all the little squares UP one place so they can make friends with their new big square. This means that the little squares that match your top fabric will move DOWN to the bottom fabric--in this picture, the smaller squares of yellow flowers on white move down to pair with the larger squares of white flowers on yellow. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">See? All the little squares have new big square partners. Keeping the original order of big squares is important in this quilt.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Place the smaller square on the BOTTOM corner of the larger square you paired it with in the previous step--right sides together. Here it is important to point out, if you have a directional print on your LARGER square like the white flowers on yellow, make sure you are placing the smaller square at the BOTTOM of the print. As for the smaller squares, I decided I didn't care about direction for those. It gets too stressful worrying about it and I like quilts that are quick and easy. It's easy to notice if the big square is oriented correctly, not so much for the smaller ones. Additionally, you could avoid this whole paragraph if you used non-directional prints. Just saying. If you're ever in a hurry and want to make this quilt, non-directional is the way to go!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Sew along the line drawn, or, in my case, I sew VERY SLIGHTLY below the line (toward the part that will be cut off. I do this because sometimes if you sew directly on the line, when you fold the little square down, it's a bit short of making your larger square whole again. This is due to the fold line created when you fold the smaller square down. If you sew a hairline below where the line is, your squares come out perfect!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Using a rotary cutter or scissors, trim off the bottom corner leaving 1/4" seam allowance below the stitch line. Don't throw these little triangle paris away! They are already perfectly matched and ready to make into half-square triangles on a another day! You can make mug rugs, potholders, table runners, or even whole quilts from these trimmings depending on how large of a project you're making. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Once you finish all the blocks for the row, sew them together. Repeat for the remaining rows. I alternate which side I press the seams per row because pressing open at this stage isn't important and it's faster to nest the seams than match seams that are pressed open. Once you make all your rows, simply join them together to form your chevron! Is that easy or what???????? If you have any assembly questions please feel free to ask! </span></div>

</div>
<ol>
<li><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This tutorial will be for a 12" zipper, but I will give you some dimensions and tips at the end to make other sizes. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This tutorial is specifically designed for metal zippers. You CAN make the bag with a nylon zipper and it will work just fine. Since you can sew over nylon zippers, the zipper can actually be longer than required since you simply cut off the excess AFTER you sew the sides of the bag. However, I prefer metal zippers so I created this tutorial with the unique challenges of metal zippers in mind. </span></span></li>
<li><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">While I say "pin" throughout this </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">tutorial, using clover clips is often easier with the bulk of all the fabric layers.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: start;">I buy all my zippers from </span><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/zipit" style="text-align: start;">Zipit</a><span style="text-align: start;"> on Etsy.</span></span></li>

<li><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Please check out <a href="http://www.theplaidscottie.com/2010/11/box-pouch-tutorial.html">The Plaid Scottie</a> or<a href="http://www.pinkxstitches.blogspot.com/2014/01/boxy-pouch-tutorial.html"> Pink Stitches</a> for two great tutorials on how to make boxy bags without exposed seams (I see no need to re-do that tutorial when there are two fabulous ones out there). That method is more involved and if you are new to pouch making, you may benefit from trying this method first. Just saying! Also, Bonnie's (pinkxstitches) tutorial will explain how to add a carrying handle to your boxy bag if you want to try that!</span></span></li>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">12" metal zipper (the length of the zipper tape should be about 13.5")</span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Desired interfacing: SF101, batting, fusible fleece, or duck cloth</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">*****If using a directional print, the top of the print should be the 13.5" side. If you want the print to look correct from both sides of the zipper (and not right on one side and upside down on the other), cut two pieces of exterior fabric 13.5"x 8.75" then sew them together with a 1/4" seam allowance so that the print is facing the right way along both 13.5" sides. I know this can be confusing. I'll try an post a picture of what I mean soon!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<u><b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A Word About Interfacing:</span></b></u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I highly suggest you play around with various types of interfacing/fabric combinations to see what you like best. Interfacing will determine the shape and weight of your bag so it's very important! The two most common ways I interface are with two layers of Pellon SF 101 (shape flex) on my exterior, or with batting and a quilted exterior. These are not the only methods! If this is your first time making a pouch and/or you have no experience with interfacing, try two layers of Pellon SF101, it's simple and will give your bag some shape without adding bulk. The thing to keep in mind about adding batting or fleece is that it will add bulk around your zipper. This is really only a concern for newbies. I don't want to make your life harder so I simply suggest you try the easiest way first before you graduate to methods that could potentially cause you more trouble. As for duck cloth, I have had success using duck cloth in between my exterior and lining fabrics to give a lot more heft to quilting cottons. Duck cloth can be trickier to use since it add a third, shiftable layer to the pouch. Not impossible to work with, but newbies, please beware. Also, depending on the exterior fabric you use, you may not even need interfacing. I've made pouches using a heavy gold vinyl (see pictures below) and I do not use ANY interfacing with those! So always be aware of your starting materials. Heavier weight fabrics will not require the same level of interfacing as quilting cottons and some fabrics cannot be ironed. Know your fabric! Know your interfacing! Don't be afraid to experiment! </span></div>

You're on my blog so we're doing it my way. :) Place your lining fabric right side up. Place your zipper right side up--this means that you should be able to see the zipper pull! Don't mess this part up! Make SURE you can see the zipper pull!</span></div>

This makes it easier and yields cleaner, more even results along your zipper. Depending on which way you oriented your zipper when making the first zipper sandwich, your zipper pull may be on top first. If that is the case, just start a bit below the zipper pull with your 1/4" seam and go to the end of the zipper. Once you're done, unzip it and start back at the beginning. I do no back stitch when I do this, I simply so back over some of my stitches when I restart my stitching. If you feel more comfortable backstitching when you pause during the zipper attachment, go for it!</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Assuming your fabric can be ironed, press both the exterior and lining fabric away from the zipper. This is important! We will be top stitching next and you don't want to get your fabric bunched up near the zipper where it can get caught. Press all fabric away from the zipper!!! Be careful! Metal zippers get really hot under an iron (ask me how I know!)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">See how I started sewing below where the zipper pull was this time? I then go back, unzip the zipper and sew over the beginning bit I skipped. This really is the best tip I can give you with metal zippers! You want your seam allowance to be consistent when attaching the layers to the zipper tape and that can get tricky with metal zippers. You've been warned!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Turn your pouch wrong (lining) side out and then flatten the pouch so that the zipper is centered on top and the exterior sides are facing. I don't give exact measurements here because it can very depending on the type of fabric and interfacing you use. Feel free to get out your ruler and make sure the zipper is centered. I typically eye ball it. If you have a directional print and have cut two exterior pieces, you have a natural guide line as to the center with the seam in your exterior. Line up the seam with the zipper and you're golden!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><u>Using a thread that coordinates with your lining</u>, sew a tight zig zag (serge) over the exposed side seams to tidy them up and keep them from fraying. I usually go over them twice with a stitch length of .7 and a width of 6. I have a <a href="http://babylock.com/sewing/symphony/">Babylock Symphony</a> and not all settings are the same so know your machine! You do NOT want to try and satin stitch over this. It is pretty thick around the zipper tabs and that tight stitch is difficult for most machines. Better to do a slightly looser zig zag and go over it twice. Then trim any small loose threads that remain. Take your time with this step to keep your work clean. Matching the thread you use in this step with your lining will keep the exposed seams from being as noticeable when your pouch is done. </span></div>

<ol>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For 14" zippers, I cut my fabric 15.5"x18" and use the same measurements for boxing the corners as I did with my 12" zipper.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For 9" zippers, I cut my fabric 10.5"x15" and boxy my corners at 1.25" to 1.5"</span></li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I always cut my fabric width the length of the zipper TAPE not the length of the zipper. so my 12" zippers have a 13.5" tape, the 14" zippers have a 15.5" tape, and the 9" zippers have a 10.5" tape. So can you see how I get the first measurement for my fabric? Easy peasy! The second measurement you can vary to get a different look.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Feel free to experiment with different size zippers, different length fabrics, and different size boxed corners to make your pouch uniquely you!!!!</span></li>

One of my favorite go-to gifts are these voile/velveteen infinity scarves! Anna Maria Horner has a great tutorial on her blog, though I use different measurements since I find hers a bit bulky. For mine, I use one yard of voile and one yard of velveteen to get TWO scarves. I cut two pieces of velveteen 13"x36" then sew together along the 13" end to get a 13"x72"ish piece. Repeat with the voile. Then follow Anna Maria Horner's instructions! Well, I also sort of cheat and machine stitch everything closed with invisible thread. Shhhhhh! Don't tell anyone I'm too lazy to hand stitch!<br />

I've been wanting to use my Chicopee fabric for a while, but I couldn't decide on a pattern. I saw something similar (almost exactly) to this quilt on Pintrest by HoosierToni and knew immediately I wanted to make it! It had the added benefit of being easy! :) This quilt is a 5x6 layout and is 67.5"x81" finished.</div>

Each cross requires roughly a fat eighth (9"x21") of fabric. If you have fat quarters, you can make 2 crosses per fat quarter. For this quilt, I made 30 crosses so you will need 30 FEs or 15 FQs plus 1.75 yards of solid. I'd get 2 yards of solid to be safe! </div>

Every print is from designer Anna Maria Horner. Some new, some old, some VERY old. Everyone loved and precious to me!</span></div>

Every year Amy hosts this great event called the <span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://amyscreativeside.com/2013/10/25/bloggers-quilt-festival-fall-2013/">Blogger's Quilt Festival</a>.</span> If you haven't heard of it, you REALLY need to check it out! Soooooooooo many inspirational quilts and new bloggers to discover! This year I'm entering two quilts, one is my "Best Bee Quilt Ever" in the <a href="http://amyscreativeside.com/2013/10/25/bloggers-quilt-festival-groupbee-quilts/">Group/Bee Category</a> (here's the <a href="http://kelbysews.blogspot.com/2013/10/starry-eyed-quilt-bloggers-quilt.html">other one</a>):</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I pretty much think this is the best quilt ever made, but I may be bias! :) This quilt is the culmination of two bees, The VIBs and the Twice Around the Block groups. The ladies were each give a piece of every print of Anna Maria Horner's Good Folks and asked to make a block constructed of half-square triangles. The results blew me away!</div>

It's no secret that I REALLY love designer Anna Maria Horner's fabric. What I love most is that when you look at some of the prints individually you may think, "meh". However, when you put them all together, what should be a hot mess ends up being an explosion of colorful awesomeness......in my opinion at least! I love to hoard my AMH, but sometimes I get really annoyed at myself for NOT using precious fabric. I decided to go all out on this quilt! I was using as much AMH as I could find in my stash--hard to find prints and all! </div>

I wanted to keep the pattern simple, but not as basic as square patchwork. I decided on the Sawtooth Star mainly because I had a new ruler I wanted to try. </div>

This is my new favorite ruler! The Flying Geese ruler! Seriously, so freaking in love with this thing! It made putting this quilt together so easy, so fast, and with virtually perfect results. I didn't have to trim one single block! I thought I'd give a brief overview on how this little guy works. I got mine at JoAnn's and they carried two sizes, 3"x6" (what I have) and 4"x8". Each ruler makes two sizes of geese. Mine will make 1.5"x3" and 3"x6". </div>

Cut two squares according to the package direction for the size geese you want to make. Place the squares rights sides together and center the smaller square on the larger one (I just folded creases in the squares to find the middle) I ended up cutting my larger square .5" larger than they suggested because it gave me more wiggle room when I went to trim the blocks at the end. </div>

This is the strangest step, but it's important! make a tiny snip in between the seams of each resulting unit. Don't clip through the stitches holding it together! Then, you can press the seam allowance toward the larger square fabric on each side of the unit. Trust me, this will make sense once you do it!</div>

You end up with two weird looking blocks like this. For reference, if you looked on the back of this block, my seam allowance would be clipped in the area where the tops of the red triangles meet. All seam allowances are pressed to the red fabric.</div>

Now it's time to break out the best ruler ever! This would also be a good time to bust out your rotating cutting mat if you have one. Line up the ruler to the geese on your block and trim all the way around.</div>

Ta-da! FOUR amazingly perfect geese!!!! I know these seems like a bunch of steps, but the results are perfect and you get 4 units for your effort! Seriously, I love this freaking ruler! For these blocks, I used (4) geese, (4) 3.5"squares, and (1) 6.5" square. The block is 12.5" unfinished.</div>

I love how wild and crazy this quilt turned out! It wasn't planned (a real challenge for me) and I didn't edit myself much in my fabric selection or pairing. It's my stream-of-consciousness quilt! Maybe I should rename it The Sound and the Fury quilt. Jeez, I think my nerd is showing. That high school term paper is still haunting me! Hopefully some of you got that reference!</div>
