Sassy Update

Here is what I have been up too!

My Craftsy 2012 BOM quilt is coming along nicely! Here are the August blocks…

Ohio Star

Double Star

I am using Carnaby Street by Pat Bravo for Art Gallery for my fabrics.

You can sign up for this free class HERE! Craftsy has lots of other FREE classes too, so check it out.

I’ve been working on a few Log Cabin blocks with my local Richmond Modern Quilt Guild. I LOVE these blocks!!! I was just kind of free- styling with these and did solids on one side and prints on the other. I am really liking how it turned out and it has me thinking about doing a Modern Log Cabin quilt!

I am using Twenty Three by Cosmo Cricket for Moda.

So what do you think….Modern Log Cabin Quilt Along???? I think Modern and Traditional options would be nice…Let me know if you are feeling it:)

Sassy Update…BOM’s, Scrappy Trips and QuiltCon!

Sassy Update

Well I have been super busy lately…I guess summer is just that way! So what have I been up to???

My Sassy Quilters Guild is doing the Craftsy 2012 BOM. It is a free class you can find HERE if you are interested. I am love, love loving these blocks!!! Probably my most favorite BOM yet. The blocks are not super hard and are fun and modern interpretations of traditional blocks.

Craftsy 2012 BOM May

May was the wonky Log Cabin variations. The fabrics I am using for the entire quilt are Carnaby Street by Pat Bravo for Art Gallery. Love these!

Craftsy 2012 BOM June

June was the Octagon and Greek Cross blocks……I would love to do an entire quilt of these greek crosses!

Scrappy Trip QAL

I signed up to do Julie@627handworks, Scrappy Trip Quilt Along. These are such fun blocks and I am loving the ones I have received so far….seriously, gorgeous! They are from all over the world…and that is just too cool! They are on Round 5 and this is my first round, but I hope to keep collecting enough of these to do an entire quilt. Make sure you head over and follow Julie so you don’t miss the next round if you are interested. It will be in the Fall.

Scrappy Trip QAL

So here are some of my strip sets I have laid out…. The people in my hive have told me some colors they like so I’m picking fabrics with some general guidelines.

I hope they like them! Anybody else feel the pressure when they are sewing for other quilters?

Scrappy Trip QAL

This block is all teal and orange, yummy!

Scrappy Trip QAL

Better get to it! These have to be shipped by July 15th!

Last, but not least….QuiltCon. Oh yes, I am all signed up and so excited I can barely stand it:) I am going to be taking a class on Ombre fabrics with Vanessa Christenson. The rest will be lectures and the quilt show……..and of course SHOPPING! Looking forward to meeting some bloggy friends and checking out Austin, Texas.

Quilt Con Schedule

Tomorrow is the last day for my Crackerjack GIVEAWAY! So click HERE to enter a 10 FQ bundle and a Crackerjack pattern. I am giving a second one away on Instagram so hop over there for a chance at another.

February Happenings…

Balkan Puzzle, 2012 Craftsy BOM

Chunky Chevron, 2012 Craftsy BOM

Recently I have done a few more informative posts and haven’t really shown what I have been working on. So here are a few pics of all the latest sassy stitchery!

At my Sassy Quilters Guild meeting we did our February blocks for the 2013 Craftsy BOM, Balkan Puzzle and Chunky Chevron. I am using Carnaby Street by Pat Bravo for Free Spirit.

Oblongagons in Cuzco

I finally got all my Oblongagons cut for the Oblongagonalong over at SewFreshQuilts! Starting to piece these together. I am using Cuzco by Kate Spain for Moda:)

ScrumptiousTop2

Finished up my Scrumptious Quilt Top.
