This all started with me tidying out those drawers - remember? I found a heap of pink and red fabric that had been tucked away ages ago and wondered what to do with it - you guys knew of course - a Scrappy Quilt!
You all helped me make decisions about the layout and the sashing - I read every comment and took a consensus from you all - white with red cornerstones it was.
My usual style is to hand quilt - but this needed something bigger! So there was a road trip to Cumbria to meet with Cath
cumbrianlongarmquilting.co.uk
who generously allowed me to film her working on her latest commission.
So this is the final video in that series - and you can own this quilt if you feel so inclined!

(some of them are REALLY bad!)
see you next time

Isn't it lovely to have our cats close to us. I've had so many over the years. As many as seven. Now I have just five. Four boys and one little lady of advanced years who rules the roost. She is always next to me on the sofa. Dear Lily and Finn, Beau, Clemmie and Sirius. I am blessed.😊

I make my binding 2 and 1/2 inches, fold it in half and stitch it down. I sew the back by hand. It makes a slim binding.

Hello my special friend! I know this is an older video but since it included a segment about the binding on your quilt, I thought it was a great place to leave a comment. I have been busy for the last couple of weeks making a very special quilt as a Christmas gift for a friend. Since I usually make quilts for charity, I usually sew the binding down on both sides with my machine just to make sure they wear well over time. But for this one, I decided to hand stitch the binding in place. I sewed the binding to the back with my machine and folded it over and hand stitched the front down. I'm not much of a hand sewer so I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to finish without jumping over to the machine. But I'm happy to say that I stitched the entire quilt binding down by hand and it looks absolutely lovely! And... I thought of you the entire time. I actually enjoyed myself! Your unhurried approach to things is rubbing off! Ha! It didn't take nearly as long as I thought, and by not hurrying so much, I was able to keep my stitches even... and they are invisible! So there you go! Thanks for your help in making my friend's Christmas present! Take care... :)

Your kitty, Norma. She makes me chuckle. She, and mine, and probably a billion other kitties, have a similar obsession with being loved when we're in the middle of quilting, or anything, and she seems to be keeping a close eye on your thread! We love 'em so much, but sometimes we're just like to be able to work on our projects!!

Hi Kate I've really enjoyed the final part of the quilt making journey it was so nice watching it from the beginning to the end. ❤ I really need that Scrappy Quilt in my life,😃 I'm working on my Husband without him knowing to try and convince him that he needs it too! I keep sending him subliminal messages by text and everytime we talk I add in the odd word like scrappy, pink, red, quilt, bed during our conversation. So hopefully I'll be able to place a bid on the quilt by the end of the week unless he has me sectioned into a Psychiatric Hospital, he's starting to look at me like I'm going a little crazy!🤪🤪 GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE WHO'S ENTERED THE GIVEAWAY!🍀🤞

Kate, it turned out absolutely brilliant. I wish I had someone near me (like you) that could teach me how to Quilt, Can foods & do pottery. 🥺. I’m the ONLY one in my immediate family that crochets and can do some 🧶knitting...embroidery, crewel etc. Haven’t sewn anything since I was in sewing class High school & that was 32 yrs ago when I was in 10th grade 🧵 . Too long. Norma just wanted a cuddle. My cats do the very same. They wait until I’m folding laundry 🧺 & then want my attention.
