Fun Halloween placemats with Templates

9/25/2023

0 Comments

 
With October right around the corner, I thought this was a fun project to decorate your home or to make as a quick gift.  One side is "Stitch and Flip" and the other is applique.  Both are easy techniques and the video is clear enough even for someone who hasn't tried them before.
Watch the video below and download the free templates she mentions just below that.
​Enjoy!

Quilt Tips:  Bento Box Quilt Block

9/18/2023

0 Comments

 
This is a traditional block that is easy and beginner friendly, but also has many variations that make it fun for advanced quilters too.  Usually this is a 2 color quilt, but you can have fun by using a different 2 fabrics in each block you make.  That makes it scrap friendly and Jelly Roll friendly.  If you would like layout ideas, it is always useful to Google Bento Box Quilt, or search on Pinterest.

You will need two different fabrics for this block. Look for a good light/dark contrast.
From both fabrics, you will need:
  • four 2-1/2″ squares
  • four 2-1/2″ x 4-1/2″ rectangles
  • two 2-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ rectangles
(Each fabric will use one WOF 2-1/2″ strip, so this is a good block for jelly rolls)

If you want more, including written instructions with photos, you can check it out on the Epida Studio's website:

Stenciling on Fabric is easy, fun, and looks amazing.  I have taken classes in person from April and she is a fabulous teacher.   This video gives you an idea of how it all works.
Thanks to April Sproule for this video.  ​https://sproulestudios.com/
