The 30-40 mph wind howling and freezing temps make this a perfect day to stay out and sew. While rummaging in my studio, I’ve decided that I’m going to make all of the test blocks from the Wildflower Sampler into another quilt. I have many of them done already so it won’t be much work and I think the bright flowers with brighten up these winter days (and my Insta feed). If anyone else is working on these blocks, feel free to join in and tag them #wildflowersampler. . . #ankastreasures #wildflowersamplerbom #wildflowersamplerbook #quilts #quiltersofinstagram #howtobrightenwinterdays #samplerquilts #flowerquilts #fatquarterquiltWe are hunkered down for a good winter storm, but it’s nice and cozy here inside. We were supposed to be going to a quilt retreat but it’s been canceled due to the storm 😩. School it closed and the boys are home with me, so I am teaching Carter more about sewing, instead of the gals who were coming to the retreat. So far he has made four 9-Patch blocks and I just heard him say that he’s excited about it and can’t wait to sew more blocks. Now Max is waiting next to the machine, with blocks in hand and Carter is telling him about the purpose of bunny tails 😂. . #pricelessmoment . #lovetheseboys #teachingkidstosewI’ve been a little quiet over here but I’ve been busy packing and preparing for an event that I have tonight. I will be speaking at my local guild - Country Quilter’s Quilt Guild at 7:00. I will be sharing my favorite cheater techniques, a little about designing fabric and introducing the group to a new friend that is making a huge impact in the lives of others through quilting and sewing. I can’t wait to tell them about her so if you are in the area, you can join us at 7:00 in the Willmar Senior Citizen building across from Robin’s Island. . #ankastreasures #trendytable #childrentolove #childrentoloveromania #childrentoloveinternationalA good way to start a Sunday morning 😉. Just kidding - This apple crunch pie will be for dessert after lunch. #applecrunchpie #whatsfordesert #getinmybelly #yumAnother quilt from my winter quilt collection - Baby Juniper. This runner is a great way to learn how to align angles that aren’t the standard 45 or 60 angles. To learn more, swipe left and then go to my blog, click on tutorials, then scroll down to the post on aligning angles. Don’t let your fear of angles hold you back any longer! I think they are fun and knowing how to do it opens a lot of possibilities for new patterns 😊. . . #babyjuniper #angleswithease #triangler #quilts #wintertablerunners #quiltersofinstagram #quiltsofinstagram #ankastreasuresCalendar
