Penny has the answer to : Easy Quilt Blocks

Image via Wikipedia

Greetings Quilter,

Whether you are a beginner quilter or a quilter with more
experience, sometimes it's just nice to sew a quilt that is
fairly easy, and goes together quickly.

One year I needed to make a quilt in about 2 weeks for my
cousin who was headed for some major surgery.  In order to
finish the quilt, I decided it would need to be a simple 9
patch – with fairly large squares.

It ended up being a scrap quilt, and I used bright, cheerful
colors.  With speed piecing techniques and simple machine
quilting, the quilt was finished in less than 2 weeks – and
I had small kids around, too.

Many of my baby quilts were heart quilts – simple hearts
machine appliquéd onto 4 inch squares of fabric that were then
sewn into a quilt.  I changed the placement of the hearts,
adding sashing, sometimes placing the squares on point to make
the quilts more interesting.

Often I made really simple 9 patch quilts with alternating
colors – like a checkerboard or offsetting the checkerboard
9 patch with a solid square of fabric.

Using that concept, you can make quite a variety of quilts
simply by changing the placement of the colors and fabrics
in your quilt.

Your quilt block doesn't need to be a 9 patch either.  There
are some interesting and fun quilt block designs using just
squares in a 4 patch, 5 patch, or 7 patch block.

To see some of these designs, and get an idea about some basic
shapes of patches that you can use for simple quilt designs, visit:

Happy Quilting!

P.S.  Many of these quilts can be made using some speed piecing
techniques, too.  You aren't really cutting and sewing all of
those small square patches, which means the quilt top can be
finished in a snap.

Choosing the Colors for Your Quilts

Image by dannie4852 via Flickr

Greetings Quilter,

Are you ready to streamline choosing colors for your quilts?

If you are like most quilters, you spend hours in the quilt
shop and sorting through your stash trying to decide what
colors of fabric you will use in your quilt.

I have been known to spend weeks with fabric laid out waiting
to be sure that I really want to use those fabrics in my quilts.

Several years ago, I took a class in hand dying fabric which
gave me a better understanding of the color wheel and the
difference between yellow-green and blue-green and why they
don't really go together most of the time.

Even so, combining the blue-green with other colors as I plan
a quilt is still challenging to me.

Should I include the red?  How about a yellow?  Will this print
look good with its black, blue and white?

And how much of each fabric should I use?

A guest on our Eavesdrop on a Telephone Conversation had a
great idea for choosing colors for your quilts.

Use photographs you like.

No kidding!  Her theory is that nature puts colors together
that "go" together, so why not use the wisdom of nature?

After the call, I decided to make a quilt using her strategy.
I found a photograph I particularly liked, and then found
fabric and made a quilt.

It was quite fun to be able to rely on the photo to guide me
for the colors of fabric, and not a color wheel.

Once the quilt was finished, I put it next to the photograph,
and was interested to see how it all worked.

Happy Quilting!

P.S.  The proportions of color in the quilt are different from
the photograph, but you can still see them.  I'm anxious to try
another quilt using that technique:
