Time to Plan your Summer Quilt Making

Red Lips from Put on Some Red Lipstick and Let's QuiltSummer Quilt Planning starts with a NEW Quilt Pattern.  After you have the quilt pattern it’s all about the fabric.  I always say, purchase ONLY what you LIKE, what you can afford and ALWAYS 100% cotton. “I” and I repeat, “I” like to wash, dry and iron my fabrics, BEFORE I start cutting them.  This is MY Quilt, “PUT on Some RED Lipstick and Let’s Quilt” 

Put on Some Red Lip Stick and Let's Quilt Pattern

When I purchase fabric and have NO idea what I will be making with it, I always purchase 2 to 3 yards.  These red and white’s  are all from my fabric closet and some are getting old, as long as the cotton  is still tight, it’s just fine to work with. 

Put on Some Red Lipstick and Let’s Quilt, is an all straight piecing quilt pattern, with all cutting and piecing instructions, this quilt  measures 54” x 74” 

Whenever possible I like to chain piece and this is the start of my piecing of squares.
