Pattern Testing - Interlocking Leaves

I had the pleasure of testing a pattern -- Interlocking Leaves -- for Bea @ Bea Quilter.  At 21 x 21 inches, it's a great size for a wall hanging or a table accent. The pattern can be cut using a rotary cutter or by using an Accuquilt cutter and the 6-inch GO Qube.

I have an 8-inch GO Qube, so decided to up-size the pattern.  My version finishes approximately 28 inches.

I started with the leaf border print and used matching Kona cottons for the interlocking leaves.  In my stash, I found a green print that was just the right size for the backing.

Quilting was an all-over stipple in Gold thread from Connecting Threads, and I used my favourite Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 batting.

This is a great pattern if you need fall decor for your home.  It doesn't take much time to piece.

Make sure to visit Bea's shop to purchase the pattern.  It will be on sale for a limited time.

Pattern Testing - Loome Quilt

I tested a great pattern by Riane @ Riane Elise -- Loome Quilt.  The pattern is being released today.  You may have seen my sneak peaks over on Instagram.

I used Kona Natural for the background, as well as Kona Orange, Tangerine, and Pimento.  I had planned to use purple, but I didn't have the right colours.  But guess what?  I had plenty of oranges in my stash.  😉  I'm sure that doesn't come as any surprise to those who regularly follow me.

I made the crib size which finishes 35 x 44 inches.  The pattern also has throw and twin sizes included.  I had a great print in my stash for the back.  Now I wish I had purchased more of it.

I quilted straight lines of varying widths with my walking foot using Aurifil 2150 Pumpkin thread.  I used my favourite Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 batting.

This is a great pattern that is easy to follow.  I would definitely make this pattern again.  Make sure to visit Riane to grab your pattern -- I heard it's on sale for the weekend.

TGIFF - Quilt Buzz Bingo

Welcome to Thank Goodness It's Finished Friday.  TGIFF is the opportunity to share your finish from this week.

If you would like to host TGIFF, there are lots of dates available for the remainder of 2020. You can sign up here.

Did you play along with Quilt Buzz Bingo?  It was a fun quick QAL.  Here is my quilt top finish.  This was supposed to be a fully finished quilt, but I went to PEI to babysit my two little nieces last weekend, so no quilting.  I thought I had suitable backing fabric, but I didn't, and my LQS closes at 6:00 p.m. now due to the pandemic.  It's been a hectic work week, and I wasn't able to get into my LQS before it closed, so again no quilting.

I hope you've had a less hectic week and have a finish to share.

I rotated some of the blocks in an effort to balance some of the colours.

Here's a wrinkly view without the Bingo numbers pinned to the blocks.

It's time for you to share your finish from this week.
