BlockHeads week 12 Jace's Star by Lisa Bongean and more

Hello and Happy Wednesday...another week has raced by and here we are in Week 12 with Lisa Bongean and her block called Jace's Star, a 6" block that is as cute as can be.  Get your 'I'm ready for tiny piecing' mojo in gear. Starch your fabric before cutting and you'll be ready to cut and sew.

Here is my version of Lisa's block. Thanks Lisa, I love it.
My fabrics combine Evelyn's Homestead and Hope's Journey.

Happy Sewing!!

Be sure to visit all our BlockHeads designers to see what they have made.

This week, I was away at a terrific retreat. 

My fellow retreaters got much more accomplished than I did, and their work is SO inspiring.

Many of us were doing some secret sewing, so I didn't take many photos, except of my own work, which I can't show yet.

However, you  can see this....

I gave a class on making needle cases using my 1" Betsy's Thimbles templates...

These are made from 1 pack of Moda Candy, aka Mini Charms.

Some sewed their thimbles by hand, or with EPP method, and some rotary cut thimbles to machine piece quickly.  Aren't they sweet?

and the inside, most with pockets and, a piece of wool for the needles.

and a closeup

SEW sweet!

Want to see more? Visit the blog post Sherri made for August 21. Details about Betsy's Thimbles EPP papers and Acrylic Templates  with www.paperpieces.com and, more photos are on the post.

Thanks Sherri!!!

After having such a good time sewing with friends, it was quite a downer to come home to a downed tree.  A big storm with high winds went through my neighborhood Saturday night and the big nice shade tree in the front yard was no match.  We are really going to miss the shade it gave the house.

Damage is minimal, we think.  Could have been much worse if it had gone through the living room window.  Now we wait for a roofer to come by and check it out.

Blue skies now. And that a really good thing.

Everyone take care.

Until next time,

~ Betsy

Direction Block 11 by Sherri McConnell for Moda BlockHeads

Hello Wednesday, Moda BlockHeads day! Today's block is by one of our new blockheads, Sherri McConnell of the mom and daughter design team Sherri and Chelsi. Hope you take time to visit Sherri's blog, A Quilting Life. Don't you love that name for a blog, or anything??

Here is my version of Direction.

Top photo is how the pattern is written.

And, this photo shows me happily thinking I knew what I was doing, LOL!

I pieced geese.  Supposed to be a chevron.  Really, I like them both.

I have them pointed left, but in the quilt you will want to decide on which 'direction' suits you.

Click Here for Sherri's pattern Direction, on her blog.

Be sure to check on all our designers, links below.

This week I feel fried inside.  So many things, obligations, deadlines, 

responsibilities to get accomplished. 

Ever have this feeling, like you are drops of water on a hot skillet???  It's not pleasant.  I always have a lot going on, always busy, but never have experienced this weird sizzling feeling.

And, I've spent a ton of precious time looking for things I simply cannot find, 

another byproduct of an overly busy mind. 

Retreat starts today, YAY, just in time for a much needed break.

It has been raining here for a week, not constant downpours, but those good soaking showers. Such a welcome relief to 100 degree plus temperatures!

'Direction' is appropriate, today, in the context of "I need direction", I'm thinking I need to get organized and get focused, the sewing room is a disaster, piles of fabrics and projects.  

When you stop laughing...yes, I know those who know me well, are still laughing, the clutter is more than I can handle.

In my desperate search for the certain things, including a new pattern I drew on a big piece of paper, I had to pick up and sort and put away other things that I knew were covering my pattern,

 but to no avail.

I used to be able to visualize the missing thing and go back to where it was when last seen, but that ability has left me.  SO frustrating!  Husband summed it up, "something distracted you". 

Hello and Amen.  Exactly! Thanks Steve!

Now to fix my mess...

and sew it goes...I do get things done. I may not ever find what I'm missing.  I'll rewrite, redraw, remake. and see you back here next week, refreshed and pulled together...LOL

My best to you all, 

Until next time,

~ Betsy

Today...Block 10 Duck and Ducklings by Jo Morton for Moda BlockHeads 2

Happy Wednesday everyone! It's Moda BlockHeads 2 day and today's designer is Jo Morton. Jo's block is a favorite of mine, Duck and Ducklings. 

Here is my version. 
This week's fabrics are all from Evelyn's Homestead.
  I chose a dark background this time.

12" block

To piece the Half Square Triangles, quickly and accurately, I used Spinning Stars Triangle Paper 

for 1 1/2" units.

hmm, it's upside down, but you get the idea. 

 The corner is right side up, lol. As you can see, you need individual triangles to complete the corner section.

 I've noticed my indigos are Photographing like black!  oops, they really are dark blue!

For Jo's blog, and her pattern Click Here

I hope you enjoy making Jo's block, I did!

And the pile is growing.  Love them!

Happy Sewing!

Be sure to visit all our designers to see what they have made this week.  Links below.

Next week, one of our new BlockHeads, Sherri McConnell of A Quilting Life, debuts her block.

Another busy week has flown by...writing patterns, drawing quilts, rearranging schedules.
And a family day. 

My ducks and ducklings...

My son, Matt on the left and son-in-law Craig on the right...the splash in the middle is Madison. Only pic I got of her, LOL. They took turns throwing her up in the air.  That little sweetheart is part flying fish...loves the water and swimming.

and here's Reed, tired out, in my daughter Rachel's arms.
14 months, finally walking.  Splashed in the pool, all worn out.
Precious.

 It was a lovely afternoon visiting with family.  Many photos not taken. Sadly I get so busy watching or visiting, I'm not recording the moment...maybe that's not such a bad thing.

Hug your loved ones.

Until next time,
~Betsy

Today's Block 9 for Moda BlockHeads2, is ''With a Plus" by Laurie Simpson

Happy Wednesday!  Today's block is super easy. Thank you Laurie, I enjoyed the simplicity of the block.  If you are behind in making blocks, this cute block will help you catch up quickly!

Isn't it cute?

Click here for the pattern on Laurie's blog.

I tried several options, but this one was the winner,  just scrappy enough for my style.

I thought I'd show you how I twist the seams and clip for a super flat block.

I've been doing the twisting, also called flipping since the mid 1990's and it is done without much thinking.  Now that I added clipping, some years ago, it is almost obsessive.

This first photo shows the seam intersection, flipped, not yet clipped, nor pressed.  If I press to the center, I'm pressing to a seam.  Ba bump. Don't like that, so I clipped on the cream side of the intersection and on the pink side down to the stitching line and pressed to the corner.

The next photo shows the seam clipped and pressed.  If you want, you might like to clip the seam so that all 4 seams press to the center, or all 4 seams press to the outside.

Press well.

All pressed nice and flat.

If you were hand quilting, you would consider the pressing ot the seams even more carefully. It really does make a difference.

And here we have the blocks to date....

It's fun to move them around...and around.

Please visit Laurie's blog  for the pattern, and all of our designers to see what else is going on in their world.  We love hearing from you, and want you to get to know us.  Links below.

It's been a busy couple of weeks.  I'm totally frustrated with being hacked again on Messenger and as  a result, I deleted the App.  You know when a friend is hacked on Messenger, the hacker sends messages to everyone in their contact list. If you respond or God forbid open the file sent with it, then he has hacked you too and then has your contact list.  It is a mess.  and practically impossible to report.  If it should happen to you, delete the message and change your password!!! Even if you only received a message that you didn't open.  

Some of you have messaged me...can't do that through Facebook Messenger anymore.  I'm not planning to reinstall the App.  You can reach me through the blog and, as long as you follow me or leave me an email address, I can reply.  You can post on my Facebook timeline or in our BlockHeads group on Facebook.  You can direct message me on Instagram.  It works really well! and then if you are desperate, just kidding, my personal email is in my profile, right here on the blog, on the right side where you can click on 'View my complete profile."

Besides that mess, I've done a lot of applique and will show you one of these days.  I've had some grandkids time and hosted a bridal brunch for my lovely niece Cara, but mostly have just tried to stay inside and keep cool with almost 2 weeks of 100+ degree heat. Yesterday and today have been cooler, but 100 degree days WILL return. UGH!

Happy sewing!

Until next time,

~ Betsy

Spin Cycle Block 7 Moda BlockHeads 2 by Stacy Iest Hsu and more

Hello Wednesday! Hello Moda BlockHeads and friends! 
Today is Stacy's first block, Spin Cycle.  A cute 6" block that is fast and easy.  LOL after last week, we all needed an easy block!

I hope you all found my tips and photos helpful.

For Stacy's pattern for Spin Cycle, CLICK HERE and it will take you to her website.

Thanks Stacy, this was fast and fun!

My fabrics for this week: indigo is from Evelyn's Homestead and pink and red are from the future Harriet's Handwork, that will be in shops in October.

Here is a hint of what goes on when you aren't looking....

I attended a 19th Century Patchwork Diva and friends retreat. So much fun by the way, to get away and have some quality sewing time with friends.

This photo reminded me that I had not shown you my latest venture...Thimbles

This is my friend Julia.  She is super fast and precut her 3" Thimbles from my acrylic template with Paper Pieces before leaving for retreat. I think she calculated she needed 400 something at least to make a nice size throw.  I'd show you the 3" template, but I sold out at retreat.  She made more rows after I took the photo and will rearrange the rows at home.  I can't wait to see her entire quilt!!!

Here is the 3" sample and packet of papers

Yes, I have a complete series of Betsy's Thimbles.

1", 1 1/2", 2", 3", and 4"

The entire venture started with an antique doll quilt I own.

To teach it in a class, I wanted to sew thimbles (tumblers) that were already on the market...couldn't! Not the same shape at all.

So I drew the shape and sent it to Paper Pieces. Long story short, I proposed other sizes, all based on the antique.  The difference between existing tumblers and my thimbles is that mine are short and squatty and fit on Moda Precuts.  Pretty cool, I think!
Class was for Two Thimbles in Bellingham, Washington. Lee, the owner, took my measurements and made a stamp, which she sells, if you like.  That is super fun to use if you like to hand piece.  ssh, I have one started.

Here is the antique doll quilt...

Enlarge the photo and you will see the acrylic template better.  They come in 1/4" and 3/8" seam allowances. Both templates work great for stacking and cutting scraps, then either machine or English Paper Piece.  This size has an 80 piece paper packet just for this project! Not precut specific, but fits jelly roll strips and 5" charms, with leftovers.

and here is my version, just need to sew the final rows together.

The antique quilt has a knife edge finish, and is tied, not quilted as there is no batting.

This photo shows the 4" version made with 6 charm packs of Harriet's Handwork. There are paper and acrylic templates available. This size would be fabulous in a scrappy assortment of charm packs of my lines or any assortment!

The 2 little quilts are made with 1" paper Thimbles and 3 Moda Mini Charm packs.  One with Harriet's Handwork and the other with Evelyn's Homestead. 1/4" and 3/8" seam allowance acrylic templates are available for machine or EPP.
United Notions/Moda is also distributing wholesale the 4" and 1" papers and 1/4" seam allowance templates.

And this is the 2" version, made from scrappy Thimbles of all my collections to date.

Betsy's Thimbles  made their debut at Spring Market in Portland and all sizes are available
 from me or  Paper Pieces

Just look for Betsy Chutchian Designs

Patterns for making Harriet's Thimbles (the 4" and 1" quilts) will be available when My Harriet's Handwork line ships in October.

That's all from me today. Be sure to check on our other designers to see what they have been doing.
Happy sewing!!!

Until next time ~

Betsy

It's MY day for Moda BlockHeads! Block 6 Path thru the Woods

It's been a busy week since Block 5 for Moda BlockHeads.  I'm at a retreat as you read this, 19th Century Patchwork Diva retreat to be exact. So, I'm writing this before I go....

fingers crossed blogger posts as I have scheduled!!!  

Internet reception is sometimes hit or miss, at the wonderful retreat in East Texas, Greenbriar.  Great food, fellowship and sewing, compensate well for not being able to post to Instagram or Facebook as I would like, but I will definitely try!  With that said, I may not be able to respond to questions or comments you may make on the blog.  I'll have phone and iPad with me, so again fingers crossed that I can respond with the iPad.  If you are desperate with an issue, please contact me through either Facebook or Instagram, direct message, or by email (in profile). They might get through. Or, go to Carrie, link below. (thanks Carrie!)

Here is my version of Path Thru the Woods...

12" finished block

 CLICK  HERE for the pattern.

Please look at my sewing tips below.

You may wish to print and follow along.

Referring to the drawing, and cutting for A and B units, 

For A, I cut 6 squares ivory solid (Moda Bella 9900-60) and 6 squares assorted green prints (Evelyn's Homestead) 2 3/8" . Cut each square again once diagonally.  

Also for A, cut 8 squares of ivory and 8 squares of assorted green prints 2 1/2". From these 2 fabrics make half square triangle units. Trim each HST unit to 2".  I used a 2 1/2" Bloc_Loc ruler and it was perfect. You will have 16 HSTs.

Assembly

Step 1  Arrange individual triangles and HSTs as shown.

Step 2  Sew individual triangles to HSTs. Press to triangles, not HSTs.

Then sew units together in rows. Seams will nest.

I flipped (twisted) the intersecting seam and clipped seam allowance as needed to press as shown.  

Intersections are very flat! Just the way I like them. :-)

Make 4 units.

 I waited to clip away dog-ears until block was stitched together.

 Step 3 Add B corners, note they are already oversized, so trim this unit to 6 1/2", using the opposite corners and the 45 degree diagonal line on your 6 1/2" ruler for reference.

Make 4 of these units.

Step 4  Sew units together. Can you see the seam flipped in this photo? It is pinned that way so the seams nest when sewn. 

You will then need to clip the flipped seam after stitching to lay flat.

 Here is the entire back, pressed and ready to have the dog-ears snipped.

 and the block, one more time.

Hope you enjoyed making MY block!

Isn't it fun to see this coming together!!!

How are you coming along with your blocks?

Remember to visit all the designers to see what they are doing. Links are below. You will need to copy them to your browser window.

Next week is Stacy's week!

Watch for some photos from retreat, with internet cooperation, LOL.

Post photos and use #modablockheads to we can follow along and find them.

Happy Sewing!

Until next time,

~ Betsy

Moda BlockHeads 2 Block 5 Impact by Vanessa Goertzen

Happy Wednesday!  It's the 4th of July! So let's celebrate with Vanessa Goertzen's block Impact. And what do you do on the 4th of July....You go BIG...lots of food, parades, and fireworks.  And you go big with Vanessa too....a 24" block, and it is awesome! Find out more about Vanessa, and to see today's pattern, click here.

Thanks, Vanessa!

I made one tiny change to the original block, by making the 8" finished center, and uneven 9 patch, instead of a plain square. 

Be sure to check out what the other designers are making and doing!

Links below.

Visit Moda BlockHeads Facebook and use the hashtag #modablockheads and #showmethemoda

when posting your own photos to Facebook or Instagram.

 Here are all my blocks, 1-5 altogether.  Had to stand on a chair to get a good photo.

I'm very happy how my blocks and fabrics are coming together.

It's been a super busy week, since block 4, flight to Springfield , Missouri to speak and teach.

Decorating and nursing a sick kitty.

Here is a little seasonal color for the 4th of July....

 This is what the ladies of the Ozark Piecemakers Quilt Guilt made last week while I was in Springfield , Missouri.

 Some of the lovely ladies in class...I had 19 that day.

 We had lunch at the biggest Bass Pro Shop in the world...LOL. It seemed like it anyway, and home to a GIANT aquarium.  We could see only a little portion...put it on your list if you like aquariums.

 And of course Miss Molly, recuperating on the couch. My sweet kitty had to have surgery right before I left for Springfield.  She hid for 3 days before I left. Fought taking her medicine and then I had to go ... She is very pleased to have me home now, and is doing quite well.  Thanks for all the Instagram and Facebook notes on my girl.

Next week, the block is one of MINE!  and I'm going to be out of town again...Diva retreat.

I'll schedule a post, so no worries there.  Fingers crossed my link will work, because internet reception is not very good there,  I'll be able to Instagram and Facebook, I think...but it is always hit or miss.

So until next week, have a fun and safe holiday.

~~  Betsy
