Project 25: Quilting
July 5, 2011
This week I’m hoping to make this cute Building Blocks baby quilt by Hyacinth Quilt Designs. Is it crazy to plan my first ever quilt for a short holiday week? Maybe. But I’m giving myself permission to go over on time this week and finish when I need to. I’ll be teaching myself quilting techniques along the way (unless I can find someone to help me out with advice).
Join me this week as I shop for fabric and batting, try to cut and sew precisely, and figure out what the heck stippling is and how one does it on a sewing machine. This one feels ambitious to me, but in the end I hope to have a cuddly baby quilt.
Did you notice that it is week 25? I’m halfway into my year project. There is a ton more to come. Thanks for hanging out with me so far!

Very cool! Some of your projects are very different from the usual DIY’s! I’d love to see what you come up with.
