cindy quilts cindy quilts monday january 1 2024 wishing everyone all the best in the new year happy quilting posted by cindy quilts at 8 39 am no comments tuesday september 5 2023 disappointed i recently finished two quilts for donation our group had a special request for some quilts for four young boys who have had a particularly rough time recently and could these quilts please be made with superhero fabrics of course everyone responded immediately and quilts were made right away more than were requested that s a good thing because the two i made will probably not be donated and i thought they turned out pretty nice i used the same fabrics in both quilts i loaded them both on the frame using one wide back that was perfect i liked it so much that i used it for the binding too i used the same quilting design on both also and then i washed them that s when the disappointment set in there are three red fabrics in these quilts one or more of them bled turning the one fabric with a white background pink i know it s hard to see it in these photos so here s a photo of one of the quilts with a white paper towel and the color catcher sheets these quilts have been washed three times with four color catchers each time the last ones on the left are almost as red as the first ones on the right those quilts are still losing color i can t donate them if they are still doing that so i gave the three red fabrics a short soak clearly it is the one on the left that s the backing fabric the selvage got tossed when i trimmed the quilts and i can t remember where it came from i watched a youtube video tonight about fabric bleed in a quilt that person said she washed her quilt nine times before there was no color loss i guess i could try washing these some more i m so disappointed i really thought that today s fabrics didn t have bleeding issues happy quilting posted by cindy quilts at 7 00 am 2 comments wednesday august 16 2023 retreat last week was a three day retreat for my quilt group i love seeing all the wonderful quilts that are being made i only got photos of a few projects in progress pumpkins she decided to cut one square from each of her batiks she didn t even cut into half of her collection scrappy beautiful patriotic superheroes this one is mine and will be donated to the local foster care program this one is also mine we the people now i need to get busy and get it quilted around my yard this morning s sunrise a bumble bee snoozing on a sunflower that same sunflower with the corn behind it and the cloudy sky beautiful hibiscus happy quilting posted by cindy quilts at 6 13 am 1 comment friday august 4 2023 two at a time sewing i am trying to get into the habit of sewing two projects at the same time some people call this starts and stops or leaders and enders i am sure there are lots of names and two at a time is probably one of them anyway i have lots of 2 inch squares and 2 1 2 inch squares that need to be turned into quilts so while i was working on the we the people quilt i started piecing 2 1 2 inch squares in between as you can see i was piecing orange squares here here is a blue block originally i had planned to just sew these blocks together randomly now i am thinking of making one color quilts hmmm but as you can see from my project notes i need at least 80 blocks to make a lap size i really prefer to make the larger twin size since these will be donation quilts and twin size is what is needed that means i would need to make 108 blocks you can also see that i started this project in january 2022 it will take a long time to get enough blocks of any one color to make a quilt i guess i need to stick with my original idea happy quilting posted by cindy quilts at 12 36 pm 1 comment older posts home
