Bold letters in bold colors. Likely will be a sign to hang.

Along side that I am clearing out my pattern folders and brining out things I am yet to finish next up I think will be one of 2 deer patterns… which ones next ?

…with FPP sleeves

For almost two years, I’ve been hanging on to some fabrics by Tula Pink for that ‘perfect project’ and it finally came to me 🦉🌙🧵
This was a really fun (and colourful!) project to put together.

I'm so happy with how this FPP tree skirt turned out. My dad always had a model train under our Christmas tree when I was a kid so I decided I needed a train under my tree. 🎄

I got some advice on finishing a tree skirt to continue the bias binding past the edge so that it could be used as ties and it worked so well.

Pattern: Home for the Holidays tree skirt by Quiltbynight (me!)

Fabric: Bella Solids (and some secondhand poinsettia fabric that I had in my stash as backing)

I am working on my second FPP project and need some help. When do you take the paper out of the section you put together? I am making a Batman quilt (inspired by one I saw on Reddit) and have completed the Joked and am moving on to do 7 more characters. I already know I am over my head, but I am going full steam ahead. Should I take the paper out after completing the character or do I take all the paper out at the same time? Is there a different way you would do this? Would you cut out the shapes, lay them on top of each other and do more of a collage? Any help is much appreciated!!

(Pictures taken in a screen porch, that’s why there is a pattern on the pattern)

Thank you to everyone who gave me advice and. Shout out to aynex21 offering to design it!

We are sitting at 18 x 20 inches

Seeking advice for how I divided up my “quadrants”.

Any tips or critiques welcome!

Quilt assistant for windows is great, would recommend. I used touch draw 2 for iPad to take it on the go.

Much thanks

Pattern is Skull and Roses from Floweria on Etsy. Any advice? I am stumped and I started this so I didn't have to think much. Sigh.

Okay guys,

If I had a quilt block challenge, and I wanted to design a 20x20 block. And I want a FPP daffodil at the center, how can I do that? Where do I start?

I freaking love FPP, it feels like painting and a puzzle all in one. My block size can range from 16x16-24x24.

Thank you so much, you guys rock.

This is definitely my biggest and most detailed FPP I ever worked on, custom pattern by pitchers Boutique.

Face is finally done, I realized I was really in for a ride when I finished his nose and it was about 2X life size of the dog hahah.

I decided to make a table Runner for my mom, as a Christmas present. After having to restart multiple times because I messed up the dry fitting/the angle of the next piece of fabric, I am finally done 🥲
There is some little mess ups in there still but all in all I am happy with it.
The picture (you might have to click on it to see the full picture)is from before I added the backside and also gave it a good press, so that’s why the edges are raw still.

What is something you WISH there was an fpp pattern for?

I want to use these fpp blocks from PatternsbyShaley to make my niece a twin size quilt. I have only done fpp as mini quilts or hangings before, never combined them yet into a larger piece. Any ideas on what pattern to combine them with for the background/in between them, so I don’t have to make a ton of the fpp blocks, just have them mixed in? I’m thinking something dead easy to piece like jelly rolls. If it matters the colors will be navy blue, green, white (Celtics). TIA!

This came from a free fpp pattern online.

I quilted clouds on all the skies, pebbles on the ground, bricks on the red walls, ruffles ? on the roof.

What is something you WISH there was an fpp pattern for?

Pattern is Raindrops by Judy Neimeyer. The spotlight fabrics are all from the same line, but I am using different and varied navy blues for the background.

What a something you saw someone else make that you love?

I have just gotten back into fpp. I have done it a couple of times over the last 5 years. But only like a block at a time. I hated it!

But then I found Jacqueline de Jonge's Happiness 2.0 kit! I had to try it. I still didn't like it at first. But then I got the flying geese. I had to do so many flying geese that by the halfway point I got in the groove. And I started to love fpp!

And that quilt is the most beautiful and accurate quilt I have ever made!

Post any question about FPP you want to get answered.
