It’s been some time since I’ve posted about my scrappy grandmother’s flower garden project. This is one of those “life-time” quilts. Except I hope to have it finished in a few years. I have just over 30 finished blocks, and I’m still undecided what I’m going to do with them… A couple of years […]

Here’s another of the “vintage” fabric quilts, but this one was not a top that I purchased; it started as a small pile of finished blocks and scraps found at an antique store. B…

Beholden 2 is a traditionally pieced quilt pattern that looks like a hand pieced Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt. It is layer cake friendly.

The possibilities are endless! I've been wanting to make a simple Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt for a while. Well, there’s no time like the present! A few weeks ago, I worked up a couple of pillows trying out my layout ideas for this simplified Grandmother’s Flower Garden. I loved this soft palette so much I couldn’t wait to see it as a quilt! This quilt is so easy and fast, even a very early beginner could do it, and it would make a great weekend project! This is all done with just one…

True cutter Grandmother's flower garden quilt in a variety of feedsacks. The pink backing isn't in too rough shape, though there is an ink spot near the center and some wear that goes through front to back. Many of the front patches show significant wear. This would be great for projects like soft stuffies or journal covers. Please note: due to this being a cutter quilt, no returns are accepted. Please thoroughly review photos to ensure your understanding of the damage before purchasing.

Here are some more photos of the amazing quilts that I was able to view yesterday. There was one room full of Grandmother's Flower Garden and Dresden Plate quilts. I do so love those! I also have an affinity for quilts showcasing one color, like the pink quilt you saw yesterday and the blue quilts above. I've never made one myself but always love them when I see them. The photo just above this text is a quilt pattern I recently ran across and have never seen before. I saw it on a blog…

Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt is done. It is such an amazing quilt. It took many hours to quilt it but it was worth all the effort. One of the challenges was making the quilting behind the appliques look like the other blocks. That required lots of stops and starts. That wouldn't have been so bad, but my machine has a part going out on it making it not want to stop. I figured I've spent several hours these last few days trying to adjust the machine. Finally today I called the Gammill…
