Midweek Makers #464

Welcome to Midweek Makers!


Snow is in the air, at least here at QuiltFabrication! Check out the snowflake themed shoe box quilt block, which I was thinking would be the last block for my RSC2024 Scrap Storage quilt.


All blocks are on the design wall, and it has gone through one re-organization to accommodate the shelving/cubby layout I have planned. I like how it looks, but I still want it longer. So, off to find more themes I haven't used to add blocks for one more row.


Since snowflakes and Christmas go together, here are some Christmas themed projects our friends have been working on. Patchouli Moon Studio made a Grinchy wall hanging,


Bell Creek Quilts scored some green fabrics for trees,


and Quilting Gail used tree template from Missouri Star to make an impromptu card.

Snowflake for December Quilt Block Mania

Sparkle is the Quilt Block Mania theme this wintery month of December. Putting the idea of sparkle and December together makes me think of snowflakes - and that's what I'm offering as my free block!


It's fun to see how the other designers interpreted this month's theme, from a diamond ring (very sparkly!) to stars.


And here's the links to find all of these free blocks, for this month only of course.

Sparkle Heart by Carolina Moore
Sparkly Star by Patchwork Breeze
Diamond Ring by Crafty Staci
Stellar by Inquiring Quilter
Sparkle Star by Scrapdash
Snowflake by QuiltFabrication
Starburst by Patti's Patchwork
Tree by Tourmaline & Thyme Quilts
Sparkle with San Diego Sewn
Aurora by Emerald Falls Quilts
Twinkle Twinkle by Epida Studio
Sparkly Ohio Star by Oh Kaye Quilting
Crown by Appliques Quilts and More
Sparkly Christmas Bell by Around the Bobbin
Prismatic Points

My Snowflake block is pure fusible applique. Trace it or, better yet, print it onto printable fusible sheets such as Flexi Fuse (affiliate link). Check out my Flexi Fuse Review post on using this product.


Then fuse the pattern to white (or your choice), cut out carefully on the lines, and fuse to the background. Stitching does require some patience, but it's worth it! Here's my Snowflake table runner using other snowflakes I designed.


The Snowflake block is a free download pattern until January 6. In downloading the pattern, you agree to not share the file with others, but direct them to the QuiltFabrication.com/Snowflake post - thank you! Now go ahead and click on the download button below for the PDF file.

Midweek Makers #463

Welcome to Midweek Makers! And Happy Thanksgiving! 


As fall and November draws to a close, I'll send it along with a burnt orange shoe box block. 


Currently, there's one more shoe box space to fill in my Scrap Storage quilt, which means the scrap hunt is on to find a color or theme I haven't made. We shall see what I come up with next week.

Making a Lather has been busy finishing her Quiltville leader/ender project from 2013. Looking good!


Gretchen's Little Corner found a pleasing border fabric for these hand embroidered blocks, which finishes up a crib quilt,


and Sew Preeti Quilts met the Island Batik Challenge with these Dresden blocks.
