Red, White and Blue Quilt Stars

Little Stat Quilt

This is one of my little quilt, each quilt star measures, two inches by two inches. Not paper pieced, machine pieced, (I go slow) clip, and press as I do, hand quilted.

This is an 18″ x 18″ quilt using traditional Red, White and Blue.

Little Quilt in Red, White and Blue, machine pieced and hand quilted

It’s machine pieced and hand quilted. I use only 100% cotton.

The Quilt back. The stitches are very small and add a texture to the quilt.

I do 8 to10 photo’s of things that are set ups. A stand, quilt, milk glass, flowers. Moving it to the dining table. Sitting in a red bowl. And again I took 6-8 pictures.

I like this, I pulled out a red, white and blue quilt. added it to the table and it works.

But for, “How long?”

Rosebud Quilt Block Pattern

Log Cabin Quilt Block

Photo Wall

Cut, Paint and Hang

This has been on the back burner for a bit. Like you I have seen them on Pinterest.
When I cleaned out a cedar chest to move it out, it was the keeper of the photo’s. So, off to Pinterest to find a photo wall. Here is my before and after photo.
See all Beth Ann’s Quilt Books in Print here
Read about them all

I used for the back 1″ x 4″, the bottom 1″ x 3″ and the front edge 1″ x 2″. I did have them cut at Lowes, I sanded, glued/nailed and painted with the same wall color paint. Made three of them.

The hardest part was the hanging of the shelves, both Husband and I on ladders, getting it level and into the wall stud…needed more hands, but we finally got it.

Our finished photo wall.

Every Quilt Has a Story

B. Annie Quilt Pattern Book

B. Annie Quilt Pattern is all about ME! I don’t say that a lot.
B. Annie at the Etsy Shop
B. Annie in Print and eBook

This Quilt started with a simple Bear Paw quilt block and then drawing and drawing sixteen quilt blocks that took that simple block and made all sixteen mine. The quilt as always going to have white background, I love quilt lines on white fabric, pink of course that’s me, adding color with greens, red, in both solids and prints. The outside border is pieced with green square and triangle leaves.

Have you ever made a quilt and as each quilt block is finished you giggle at what you just did? This is how I felt as this quilt was going together, into a finished eighty-eight by eighty-four-inch quilt. Kind of Perfect.

That’s my B. Annie quilt all about ME! Should say that more, one of my faults? Maybe it’s just taking care of so many.

But this quilt is ME and MINE! B. Annie Quilt
