I just got my quilt back from my quilter!


My quilter is my good friend 
Juli Stubbs and she always
 does a fantastic job!


When she asked how I wanted it
 custom quilted...
because she always does
 that for my applique quilts...


I just kept thinking that 
my Prim Quilt was more suited to 
a simple repetitive pattern 
that was used for hand quilting 
back during my great grandparents time.


So I asked Juli if she would 
do a Baptist Fan and 
of course she said yes!


I am so happy with that choice!


I think it fits the style
 of the Prim Quilt perfectly:)





I took a lot of photos 
from several angles 
so that you could see everything:)



I also wanted to keep the label simple 
for this quilt...
so I cut another of the star blocks
 that we made for the corners...


And stitched it up like this.
For the inside star background
 I used CLOUD which is a 
Confetti Cotton Solid 
by Riley Blake Designs.
Cloud matches all of my fabrics perfectly.



I love this block!!!


I used a Micron Pigma Pen
 to write my name and also 
the name of the sew along and the date:)


This is the Prim wide back print color way
 that I chose for the back of my quilt
 and so I chose prints from Prim 
to match accordingly 
when making my Star Label.


I treated my star block 
just as I would a Sew Simple Shape 
and sewed it with the interfacing 
so that it could just be appliqued 
onto the back of the quilt...


Like this!!!


Of course TOBY had to get in on 
the action (as usual) 
as I was taking pictures.



I think he looks handsome 
in his navy gingham bandana:)


I just loved every step of 
making this quilt and I'm going to
 keep it hanging on my wall 
for a while because it
 makes me happy every time I see it!


So...I told you when this sew along was over 
that I would announce my next sew along 
and it's for my quilt called 
FLEA MARKET FLOWERS


This is what the quilt looks like 
and I cannot even wait to make it!

Of course we will be using my 
next fabric collection called of course...
FLEA MARKET

Flea Market will be here 
next month (December 2020)


And the sew along will begin 
Monday, January 25th 2021...
and of course you are invited!!

You can find out information about it
 by going over to my 
for a little visit.

On Friday I filmed all about
 Flea Market fabric and the sew along...

And I also introduce you to my 
STITCH fabric collection 
that will be here 8 months
 from now in July 2021

to go see all about it
and I hopoe you enjoy!!

  1. Lori, this is such a sweet quilt. I so wish I had been able to participate. Life has gotten in the way the past few months as we've moved parents into assisted living after both having major health issue. I hope to get back to my many UFOs soon and look forward to your next project.

  2. I love this quilt and am making one but am doing it from my scraps. I'm only on block 2 but am loving the process. I am doing hand applique. I love the quiet process of handwork. Thank you for your talent and your willingness to share it.
