An all night quilting adventure!

 Last night at 10:00pm the fun all began!

I participated in an all night mystery quilt class.

We were given the supply and cutting list and told to show up at 10:00pm!

I showed up with all of my supplies along with some candy and a couple of diet Rockstars, I knew those would be necessary to keep me awake all night.

 Amy shared a table with me and Kathleen came to help me press and cut. A life saver for sure!

Cat Beckstead was the teacher and she had so many fun things to do during the night. We played Quilting Bingo, everyone had a whistle that we blew when we ran out of bobbin thread or when we completed a step. It was so much fun!

I did end up completing the center of my quilt top. Borders are up to me so the creative juices are flowing.

I used some of Sweetwaters new Sunkissed fabric and I love it.

I finished the quilt top around 4am, 6 hours total. I'm a little tired today but it was totally worth it!

Have you ever participated in an all night sewing class?

Summer Dreams

 My friend Cat designed this Summer Dreams quilt as a mystery quilt and she did an amazing job! This is hers and I was lucky enough to quilt it for her.

I had a lot of fun quilting it and I thought that the quilting turned out gorgeous, if I say so myself:)

I also have to share with you.....again, my Summer Dreams quilt. I think it's so fun to see that they are the same quilt but how different they look with different materials and borders!

I love them both! You can purchase the kit here.

Finished!

Remember a couple of weeks back several of you helped me with your great input on my Summer Dreams mystery quilt. Well, yesterday I finished it, it's now quilted and bound and I'm loving it.

I went with a modern circle look and I'm really happy with how it turned out. What do you think?

2 New Quilt Kits

Summer Dreams Quilt Kit by Cat Beckstead featuring Authentic materials is now available @ Piece N Quilt.

Quilt kit includes materials from the Authentic collection and pattern to complete the quilt top and binding. Backing and batting are not included.

Hidden Petals Quilt Kit is also now available. 

The mystery with borders.

I was able to get the borders added onto my quilt. It was a little tricky because the green border finished 1/4". I'm thinking it like it!

 I'm now deciding how to quilt it and then thinking that I'll use the same black material for the binding, or if I get really into it maybe I'll do some green piping then the black binding.

What do you think? I'd love to hear some feedback! :)

Another mystery......but I need some help!

Today was the big day for another mystery quilt. I was all packed up ready to go sew all day when the baby sitter, aka my husband, let me know that he had to work and I wouldn't be able to leave the little disctructo home alone, AND I'm sure the other ladies didn't want me to take her with me:) So I did my mystery quilt from home and have been sending messages via facebook all day!

This is my top! I'm really happy with how it turned out! I used Authentic material and I just need some help deciding what to do for borders... I'm thinking maybe something black but not sure. If you have a great idea I'd love the help!

Another Mystery!

Tomorrow I get to go spend the day working on another mystery quilt! I am sew excited! I've chosen to use materials from the Authentic collection! I can't wait! I will have pictures next week!

The Utah state quilt guild hosted a mystery quilt along through their newsletter. My friends Cantella Box (Shantelle Cox and Cat Beckstead) designed the quilt and I think they did an amazing job!

I was able to quilt their quilts and it was so much fun!

It's fun to see how different they are yet from the same pattern!

There are a few more photos of quilts from the ladies around Utah that also made this. Go check them out on the Utah state quilt guild website!

The Mystery @ Quiltfest

Today I had the opportunity to go to Quilt Fest for the first time! It was fun to laugh and sew all day on the mystery quilt! (You'll have to wait to see the pictures.)  Thanks to my friend Cat we went to lunch and had the opportunity to listen to Pam Bono tell us about herself and her beautiful quilts!

Thanks ladies! I cant wait to see everyones finished Mystery Quilts!

The mystery has been solved

If you remember clear back HERE, we participated in making a mystery quilt that our friend Cat designed. It was the first one that we'd ever made and I am very happy to report that it's finished and I love how it turned out!

It's called Hidden Petals by Cat Beckstead.

No longer a mystery!

If you remember a month or so ago we talked about our mystery quilt.

Well...... Here is the finished product. This is not ours, it is one of our cute quilting friends mystery quilt! We think that the colors she chose made her quilt absolutely stunning!
