            <title>Color Wheel Wall Hanging</title>
            <link>http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=5181869&amp;cid=t_194868_106_f&amp;fid=36682&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedproxy.google.com%2F%7Er%2FSutureForALiving%2F%7E3%2FecnXGt_6Lws%2Fcolor-wheel-wall-hanging.html</link>
            <description>I finally finished the color wheel wall hanging quilt!&amp;#160; As you may recall, it is from a 1993 color wheel kit designed by Susan McKelvy (author of Color for Quilters).&amp;#160; I began the quilt earlier this summer and finished it a few weeks ago. It is machine and hand pieced.&amp;#160; It is machine quilted.&amp;#160; It is 29 in square in size. Here is a closer photo to show the quilting better.  Here you can see the quilting of the border.    The back is a black cotton.&amp;#160; I tried to get a good photo of the quilting from the back, but it didn’t work out.

            <description>A few weeks ago I posted the color wheel kit I purchased years ago and finally got around to making.&amp;#160; This was made from some of the left over fabric and uses all the colors of the wheel.&amp;#160; It is an Ohio Star block within an Ohio Star block framed with a dark blue fabric.&amp;#160; I machine pieced and quilted it.&amp;#160; The wall hanging measures 24.5 in square.  &amp;#160; Here is a close view of the center to show the quilting done with a light to medium blue thread.  Here is the back (the fabric is actually the dark blue used for the quilt border on the front of the quilt.&amp;#160; It looks washed out here.     I’ve listed the quilt for sale on Etsy.

            <description>Recently I removed some beaded flowers from an old Liz Claiborne sweater.&amp;#160; When thinking of how to use them, I recalled Picasso’s Flowers in Hand.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; I partially copied/ partially free-handed the flower position, stems, and hands. I machine stitched the hands and stems, then added the blue fabric border.&amp;#160; I did the machine quilting next, hand sewing on the beaded flowers after I had the binding done. The quilt measures 15.75 in X 18 in. Here you can see the beaded flowers and stitching.  Here is the back.    The quilt is for sale on Etsy. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>This miniature quilt is made using a feed sack which held rice.&amp;#160; The rooster logo is framed by a black and then a red/black sash.&amp;#160; The quilt measures 10.5 in X 12.75 in.&amp;#160; It is machine pieced.&amp;#160; It is machine and hand quilted. This photo shows the rooster and quilting better.&amp;#160; The rooster is quilted with cross-hatching while the outer area is an intertwined cable.&amp;#160; These were hand quilted.&amp;#160; The area next to the black strip was machine quilted “in-the-ditch.”  The back has a sleeve for hanging.

            <description>This miniature American Flag quilt is similar to this one and this one, only much smaller.&amp;#160; It is a basic brick pattern for the strips. Each brick measure 0.5 in X 1 in.&amp;#160; I placed a purple heart in the star field. The quilt is machine pieced and quilted.&amp;#160; It measures 7.25 in X 11.5 in. The purple heart is machine appliqued.  The back features “fast triangles” for hanging ease.    The quilt is for sale on Etsy. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>You might think that Etsy founder Rob Kalin doesn&amp;#8217;t have much in common with Apple&amp;#8217;s rock star CEO, Steve Jobs. Inc. magazine&amp;#8217;s Max Chafkin describes Kalin as &amp;#8220;socially awkward, reticent, and given to eccentricities that can seem downright crazy.&amp;#8221; Chafkin goes on to quote Kalin: &amp;#8220;I speak to people in the business world and the [...]

            <description>This small art quilt was inspired by a photo of a multinodular goiter in a JAMA article (photo credit), the upper right image here.   I took the photo and enlarged it more than 400% to create this template on freezer paper.&amp;#160; I applied light-weight fusible web to the back of my black fabric and the freezer paper to the front.&amp;#160; Then using an #11 blade I cut out the design.   &amp;#160; The black fabric was then fused to the background fabrics.&amp;#160; First the yellow print and then the gray print.&amp;#160; The raw edges were then machine appliqued.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; The border consists of two thin strips (an inner black and then the print) and a larger black.  &amp;#160; I machine quilted the piece.&amp;#160; Here is a&amp;#160; close view of the yellow flower which was fussy cut from a wonderful Batik.   &amp;...</description>

            <description>The center motif of this small art quilt is an exercise in using the techniques from the book Shadowfolds by Jeffrey Rutzky and Chris Palmer.&amp;#160; The book is full of interesting was to make geometric designs by creating folds in fabric. Using border fabric I added a mitered border.&amp;#160; The border is machine quilted.&amp;#160; I used the beads to quilt the center motif which was made using white fabric.&amp;#160; There is a layer of blue-green fabric between the quilt and the batting so the folds show more.&amp;#160; The quilt measures 9.5 in square. Here is a close up to show the border, the folds, and the beads.  The back is a lovely gold fabric with triangles for ease of hanging.&amp;#160; A bamboo skewer is used along with a picture hanging hook.  This quilt is for sale on Etsy.

            <description>I really like how this quilt turned out.&amp;#160; For now it is hanging in my office.&amp;#160; I have decided to use it to help Movin Meat raise money for The St Baldrick's Foundation.&amp;#160; It is listed on Etsy if anyone is interested in buying it. The quilt was inspired by this scarf featured on Street Anatomy. I cropped a screen shot, brushed in the heart (suggested by the arterial formation), and then printed it out on a sheet of Colorfast fabric.&amp;#160; The border fabric is from an old flour sack. It is machine pieced and quilted.&amp;#160; The small wall hanging measures 18.5 in X 23.75 in. I embellished the heart in the hand using yarns and thread.  The back is a simple gray print cotton calico. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>This quilt was made from the cut-out fabric from the EKG of my “Winter” quilt. You can see what I mean in this photo.   This small wall hanging quilt is 16 in square. It is machine and hand appliqued. It is machine quilted. The icicles in the heart are quilted with metallic thread.  Here you can see the deep red thread used to quilt the “frame” and the metallic used in the middle.   Here is a photo of the center of the back of the quilt before the sleeve and label were added.    I have listed it for sale on Etsy. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>I recently finished this miniature Christmas quilt.&amp;#160; The Santa comes from a Christmas card from years past which I saved with the intention to someday use it in quilting.&amp;#160; The Santa is machine appliqued using mostly cotton fabrics, but I did use scraps of white ultra suede for the hat trim and black ultra suede for the eyelashes.&amp;#160;  I added glitter glue to the hat trim for a little “flash.”&amp;#160; The white on white fabric used for the bread helped keep it from looking too flat.&amp;#160; The quilt is machine quilted.&amp;#160; It measures 11 in X 13.5 in.&amp;#160; I sewed a sleeve on the back for hanging.&amp;#160; I have listed it for sale on Etsy.

            <description>I bought this cornbread mix specifically so I could have the fabric bag it came in.&amp;#160; The graphics with the eagle includes the recipe for the cornbread.&amp;#160; I used a lovely navy fabric for the border which features either wheat or corn (not sure which).&amp;#160; I machine pieced the quilt, then hand quilted it. The quilt is 8.5 in X 10 in.&amp;#160; The back includes a 2 in sleeve to facilitate hanging it.&amp;#160; I have listed it on Etsy for anyone interested. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>The quilt I featured a few weeks ago is finished!&amp;#160; I machine quilted it using a golden yellow thread in a Baptist fan quilting pattern.&amp;#160; The quilt is 50.5 in X 68 in. I have become a fan of word quilts and am thinking of doing another.&amp;#160; Topics might&amp;#160; include animals (dogs, cats, horses, cows, llamas, etc) or perhaps bones (ulna, tibia, sternum, tarsal, zygoma, etc). Here are some additional photos to show the lovely fabrics.  I love the dragonfly fabric used in the word lashes.  The backing is a spotted batik.   I was initially going to give this to a friend who is an ophthalmologist, but my husband has urged me to place it for sale on Etsy.&amp;#160; So it will reside there for a while and if no one buys it, then I will still give it to my friend.

            <description>I made this quilt last month using fabric scraps for the crazy-pieced basket.&amp;#160; It is machine pieced and quilted.&amp;#160; It measures 16 inches square.&amp;#160; It is available for sale on Etsy. I marked the quilt with a chalk marker which appears to not have completely washed out.&amp;#160; All the quilting was done with white thread.  Here you can see the quilting of the triangle corners.  Here is the back before I sewed on the label and sleeve for hanging. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>Flipping through some of my quilting books, I decided to make an “airplane” quilt.&amp;#160; I looked at all the patterns in “Flying High:&amp;#160; the Airplane in Quilts” by Ragi Marino, but ultimately decided to use the “Lindy” airplane block from&amp;#160; BH&amp;G’s America’s Heritage Quilts.&amp;#160; The book states the pattern was published in the Capper’s Weekly in the 1930’s. The baby (or child’s) quilt is machine pieced with the propellers appliqued by hand.&amp;#160; The planes are in primary colors -- two red, two blue, two green, and two yellow planes.

            <description>I made this baby quilt using some novelty fabric my sister gave me (the dogs on motorcycles) and other fabrics in my stash.&amp;#160; The pattern is a nine-patch.&amp;#160; The quilt is machine pieced and quilted.&amp;#160; It is 41 in X 43 in.&amp;#160; The back is simply white Kona cotton.&amp;#160;   It is cross-hatch quilted using white thread.&amp;#160; I have listed it for sale on Etsy.

            <title>Abstract Art Mini-Quilt</title>
            <link>http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=3408414&amp;cid=t_194868_106_f&amp;fid=36682&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedproxy.google.com%2F%7Er%2FSutureForALiving%2F%7E3%2Fcp_kO2nAbnY%2Fabstract-art-mini-quilt.html</link>
            <description>The inspiration for this miniature quilt came from feedly. When there is no photo in the blog post, feedly will use stock photos. I liked this abstract one and “saved” it on my posterous blog.   I enlarged the small feedly photo and printed it out. I then used freezer paper to make my pattern pieces.  I hand sewed the pieces together.     I used the back fabric to self-bind the quilt, creating a mitered border. The miniature quilt is 13 in X 9.75 in. It is hand quilted.  The back has a 4 in sleeve sewn for hanging the quilt. It is for sale on Etsy. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>I have been saving labels from clothing for years now.&amp;#160;&amp;#160; They are from shirts, jeans, dresses, and ties.&amp;#160; I have often thought they would make a nice quilt, using them like the old cigar silks were used.&amp;#160; It took the announcement of this quilt contest to finally push me to make the quilt.&amp;#160; Their theme is “New from Old” and the inspiration statement spoke of my use of the labels as the cigar silks had been used:   Imagine antique quilt blocks, trims, color palettes, and stitches translated and transformed by state-of-the-art sewing machines, vibrant modern fabrics, and new techniques by the innovative quiltmakers of today.  I used a fusible stabilizer to arrange the labels, hold them in place for stitching, and to align the vertical strips.&amp;#160; The labels are ...</description>

            <description>This is a small wall hanging I recently made using five different red fabrics in the heart. The quilt is 28 in X 26.5 in. It is framed by a border print with mitered corners. It is machine pieced and quilted. I have listed it for sale on Etsy. The photos is meant to show the red fabrics better and the “hearts” used in the quilting.  The background was cross-hatched quilted. The border was quilted with a string-of-hearts.  The back is a lovely floral print. There is a 4 in sleeve for hanging.

            <description>This quilt is made from antique quilt blocks found at an estate sale in the mid-1990s.&amp;#160; The pattern is the male version of Sun Bonnet Sue and is called Overall Sam.&amp;#160; Five of the six blocks have a red handkerchief in the Sam’s back right pocket.&amp;#160; I put the blocks together and then had a friend hand quilt it for me using Baptist Fan quilting.&amp;#160; The blocks are 14” square.&amp;#160; The quilt is 35.5” X 53.5”.  Here are close photos of two of the blocks.&amp;#160; I have listed the quilt at my Etsy shop. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>I made this Christmas Tree Skirt back in the mid 1990’s, but have used it only once. After I invited the dogs into my life, Christmas trees have pretty much gone out. Their tails are not tree friendly. So I decorate with Poinsettias, wreaths, etc. The skirt is features red, green, and yellow 8-point stars on a black background. The star blocks are 16 in square. It is machine pieced and quilted. It closes with snaps. The skirt is 30 in from center to outer point. I’ll be adding this post to SewCalGal’s Virtual Christmas Quilt Show.&amp;#160; I hope you will check it out as I am sure there will be many lovely quilts.   Here is a close shot of one of the star blocks.   I have put the Christmas tree skirt up for sale on Etsy if you are interested. (Source: Suture for a Living)</description>

            <description>They lie on the floor of the waiting room whilst their sister has her second batch of x-rays. A middle aged woman like me, peers at a magazine through her bifocals with the cord dangling. Each of my boys has a Pokemon toy in each hand. The receptionist and her assistant exchange files behind their desk. The Pokemons chatter together quietly in their own language, assisted by my sons. An elderly gentleman rests his hands on his stick as he waits for his wife to return. It’s a long wait. Two high school girls wait for their father. A couple of youngsters saunter in with rucksacks straight from school with their Dad. They sit close by as their father completes paperwork, concentrates on filling the boxes. My boys continue to play, quietly. This is the first occasion that I have ever been ab...</description>

            <description>It’s a pretty ordinary kind of a day once they’ve all headed off for school. I strip two beds and start the laundry, nip out into the garden to plants a couple of packets of sunflower seeds, throw a couple of pots, bake a pair of loaves, take the dog for his customary two hour’s walk, fix two sprinkler heads, trim a couple of pots, carve one, attempt un-blurry photographs of said pots, return to supper preparations. As I peel potatoes at the sink I have the chance to listen to the radio on NPR where Michael Krasny interviews Germaine Greer about her latest fascinating book called Shakespear’s Wife, Anne Hathaway. My hands peel but by brain is back in Merry olde England, the trials of serfs, the division of labour, women’s rights and a whole slew of ancient memories of when I had ...</description>

            <description>My tackle this week is a hugely tiny task of how to get up and running on &quot;Etsy.&quot;I don't know if any of you have any experience of &quot;Etsy&quot; but hopefully I'll be ready tomorrow for the start of Autism Awareness Month.If anyone has any advice you'd like to offer I'd be very grateful for any tips you might be able to share. I'm especially looking to anticipate problems, irritations and other annoyances, things that you did not like about your purchasing experience. I am especially terrified of the Post Office / mailing trips as getting to the post office is a complete nightmare for my family and sadly they're not open when my children are asleep. How tolerant will people be if they place an order and I can't get to the post office for a week? Not very I suspect.Additionally I now have a load o...</description>

            <description>Get the code:-Cut and pastefrom this littleboxy thing below Autism awareness month is nearly upon us, so I have a new design, with &quot;Daniel Tammet&quot; in mind, for those of us ordinary folks without savant skills. Criticisms so far:-1. The numbers are too big2. The numbers are too small3. There are not enough numbers, 50 numerals is stingy4. The numbers are anti-clockwise5. It has to end with a zero or serious pain ensues6. The numbers are upside down7. Where are the fish?8. Why can’t we have negative numbers instead?9.   Green is betterPlease feel free to add your own criticism and comments so that I can adjust and try to accommodate.Cheers dearsIf you like what you read, send it to someone in 'need.'

            <description>Hosted by &quot;Tracy&quot; at &quot;Mother May I,&quot; but the photo-picture below will whizz you right there with one click.Just call me snap happy.I've been very busy in the bowl / pot making department.So I took a morning out to teach my daughter how to throw a pot on a wheel.Pretty impressive stuff for a first timer!This may look like my old design, but it's a variation on a theme.Can you spot the difference?And yes, it is of great significance to me. Some see a fish that looks like just all the others, indistinguishable from his fellows.Some may see a rogue fish going the wrong way. Others may feel an ironic association with eye contact, or maybe something else. For me, it's more that there is a different perspective, often more than one, but most of us are far too busy running with the crowd to notice...</description>
