From Small Things: Episode 8: A Red and White Sampler

Welcome back! This week, I thought I'd share a bit of my hand quilting process. I talk about it in the beginning, and there is also a minute at the very end for anyone who wants a longer look at the quilting motion. This time I am hand quilting a crosshatch pattern on a snowball quilt; I use four needles at a time, on a Q-snap frame, using Coats & Clark thread. A few small things I've been working on this week include crocheted lace and preparing a yo-yo orphan block for use in a future quilt. There are a few acquisitions this week: a jar to keep dog ears in, and a box of ties! I have a finished quilt to share also. It is a red and white sampler quilt with sashing and cornerstones, hand quilted with the baptist fan motif. It includes blocks made with several different techniques in addition to machine piecing, including embroidery, paper piecing, applique, and some orphan blocks. The back features a Carpenter's Wheel, and I absolutely love how it turned out! (Thank you, Color Grabbers!) Finally, my orphan block quilt top is all pieced, and ready for basting.
