Hoot Hoot Finish

Finished the Hoot! Hoot! Heirloom Rag Quilt Throw. Turned out nice. I like the nice & calm color palette. This quilt is filled with a nice sea glass blue/green for its main color with cream, turquoise and dark chocolate for the main colors. Quilt is completely backed with the sea glass owl in forest print. Whats next? Probably the Meadowsweet 2 Heirloom Rag Quilt Throw. Thanks for stopping by! Past Traditions

Clipping Rag Quilts....

Well we had a busy couple of days so my hoot hoot quilt progress was held up a bit. We went to see Dave Ramsey Live! this Saturday and then my husband and father went to see a NBA basketball game yesterday Grizzlies vs. Lakers.
Anyways I am a math nerd and thought I would figure how many cuts I make every time I make an Heirloom Quilt Throw when I clip for the ragging around each square.

3,072! ! !

Just a little interesting fact for all of my great customers. All hand cut too!!! Takes some time but the results are definately worth it. They have some machines out there that are made to do the clipping on rag quilts. But I like doing it by hand. Well better get working on the Hoot! Hoot! quilt. Hopefully I will get it finished soon! - No date set this time though! LOL!!! pasttraditions

Hoot Hoot Progress

Made some nice progress on the newest heirloom quilt throw. Should have everything pieced together by tomorrow. Love the nice calm colors of this quilt.

Looking forward to the Meadowsweet 2 quilt also. It will be my next project.

Have a great days and will be back on Friday! Past Traditions

Pot Holders

As if I needed another project to start! I was really exited about trying out a tutorial from Oh Fransson! I cut out enough blocks to do 3 potholders, I finished piecing the tops of all 3 and then I got burnt out on them... :( I should have just made one. I don't know why I do that sometimes. I hate having unfinished projects stacked around. This one turned out alright, just a little more tweaking and the next one should turn out better ~ hopefully. :) They are cute and fun once you get started you should try one out! I did make a few variations to the potholders. Next post will be about Hoot! Hoot! progress or maybe another potholder. Have a great day! Past Traditions
