These will serve as reference points for sewing each curve.<br />
<br />
Stitch your pieces together using a seam allowance of 1/4" referring to the reference points. (I found it easiest to pin the pieces together, but you are all probably better seamstresses than I.)<br />
<br />
It is normal for the ends of each piece not to match, your block will be re-cut later.<br />

Emily- I loved this. Everything you touch turns to gold and I enjoyed this pattern. I need a new project to work on so I might just be a copy cat AGAIN and start one for myself. Maybe even the same fabrics. Because I don't fall in love with my projects as much as I do yours. :)camiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13508352353067095334noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5209866624530135015.post-70335991138357306872016-07-21T11:47:00.002-05:002016-07-21T17:26:15.717-05:00Christmas Houndstooth for August<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let's just keep this Christmas theme going, shall we? </span><br />

I noticed while taking the picture that the base is slightly slanted. I am up for a re-do if you'd like me to give it a second shot. I thought it was perfectly straight before I started sewing. :)<br />

<br />
First I will be sending everyone either a green 10.5 inch square block, as pictured here, or a red square block, along with a wooden "stand" already cut to the correct measurements. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP9bSvezj5FEfjFQ-dKBn8iR0PLF8_F5zV8xtUuUD4QBYl5K1IsqiX1e2X2mS3ncRut5TsVcwfE1ePqH3HjDWj73FsLWotNG-8NzsFa_6hJkRpt78pHbmDDZgudVXwndonPYVDohVCvE4/s1600/IMG_20160616_135702.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP9bSvezj5FEfjFQ-dKBn8iR0PLF8_F5zV8xtUuUD4QBYl5K1IsqiX1e2X2mS3ncRut5TsVcwfE1ePqH3HjDWj73FsLWotNG-8NzsFa_6hJkRpt78pHbmDDZgudVXwndonPYVDohVCvE4/s320/IMG_20160616_135702.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
You will also receive a paper template for the correct size circle needed to make the globe part of the block. Please choose a Christmas design that looks like it could be a scene in a snow globe, or at least the closest you've got, as I did here and fussy cut it so that what remains will look slightly grounded and not like it is floating in air.<br />

Iron on fusible adhesive to the back of both the circle and the wooden stand fabric. I have found that I don't really need to cover the entire piece of fabric, just enough so that it stays where I want it until I am ready to sew it all down on the background piece.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR_Gh8BImxFi-dmD6ZdS2YcJs6Kwhk6G4ifwKVUat45UsHVbDneQ7MjsJIsAqxbmmsfkFvW4izBN_BiRwHmEHIagaae0_u34vr42GkA9vjnTAAFeWmyvxOUGKKx1ohZrnPJ-kUQ4Lyha8/s1600/IMG_20160616_135725.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR_Gh8BImxFi-dmD6ZdS2YcJs6Kwhk6G4ifwKVUat45UsHVbDneQ7MjsJIsAqxbmmsfkFvW4izBN_BiRwHmEHIagaae0_u34vr42GkA9vjnTAAFeWmyvxOUGKKx1ohZrnPJ-kUQ4Lyha8/s320/IMG_20160616_135725.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
When positioning the fabric it is important to remember that these blocks will eventually be sewn together. Leave room for the adjoining seam, on both the top and bottom of the globe. Also, try and get the circle centered in the middle of the two sides as well as possible. You can even use a ruler if that will help. Place the circle down first, and then place the wooden stand over it, making sure that both sides of the stand are exactly even with the sides of the globe. We don't want our globes to spring a leak! :)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then sew all around the globe using white thread and a zig zag stitch. My settings on my machine were with a 2.7 width and a .50 length. Then use the same settings, but brown thread, to stitch all around the stand. And that's it, you are done!<br />

<br />
I can't decide on if I should embroider snowflakes around the background fabric, sew some iridescent sequins on to the circles to make it look like glitter in the globes, or both. Any thoughts?<br />
<br />
Thank you so much ladies! I am really excited to make this for my mom. She used to have quite a lovely snow globe collection, amassed over several years. And then one fateful night, the shelf they were displayed on got knocked pretty hard by the shoulder of a teenage boy creeping home in the night and they all came crashing down. She has never tried to replace them, but really loves remembering them. I thought this would be a good, unbreakable substitute! :)<br />

I even have the fabric. I do not have time to explain it yet. I will make time next week. It is a very simple block, if that helps. I want to make a "snow globe" block and use them to make a table runner for my mom for Christmas. So if you want to start digging through your stash to find a 6 inch square of cute Christmas fabric that would resemble a scene in a snow globe when fussy cut into a circle, that would be great. I will send the background fabric and the fabric for the "wooden base" of the snow globe.Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17897269006936086480noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5209866624530135015.post-30359857111845584612016-05-28T17:25:00.003-05:002016-05-28T19:01:47.654-05:00oregon forestHere it is- and I LOVE it.

I think it's going to be a really sweet quilt when finished. And since I hate waste, I went ahead and sewed the parts we cut off into half-square triangles for you to make a matching something with. <br />

If everybody sent you the extras I bet you could almost make a second small quilt. I know a couple people have already made theirs, but maybe they still have the scraps? :)<br />
I did that with a quilt I made for myself and ended up with enough to make a second full quilt for my daughter.<br />

It was stressful and hard to narrow it down to one. I picked the <a href="http://woodenspoonquilts.blogspot.com/2014/09/raspberry-kiss-block-tutorial_56.html" target="_blank">Raspberry Kiss</a> block (in the larger 9" size) because it was simple, bright, and lended itself well to swapping. 22 quilters signed up and we each made 44 blocks. This is my finished quilt. Isn't it fun!?</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I found this quilt on Pinterest (<a href="http://pin.it/T0kG26w" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: normal;">http://pin.it/T0kG26w</a>). I really do hate to violate copyright laws, so I worked hard to find the pattern in order that I could purchase it. I failed. The first link was to "Tula Pink". It was supposed to be in one of their books, which I could not find. I found another "Pin" that resembled the one I liked so much. It was from "Craftsy". Then I found a kit that was put together by our very own "Stitch'in Post"! But it was sold out! Not to be deterred, I got out pencil and graph paper and started creating a pattern for us to use. Here is the result:</div>

I looked at the individual square on the right and thought..."Good heavens! That's 36 tiny little squares and HST's! That is too much!" Anyway, I pruned it down to a much more reasonable square.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here we go. You will receive fabric for your square in the mail. Two pieces of red fabric, 2 pieces of turquoise fabric & 4 pieces of gray fabric. (The color in my photos is really off Sorry.)</div>

<b><u>Trim your pieces</u></b> to:</div>

Red: One 12 1/2" X 6 1/2" rectangles</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Turquoise: Two 6 1/2" X 6 1/2" squares</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gray: Four 2 1/2" X 2 1/2" squares</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(Some of the pieces that I am sending will not need trimming. It depended on how I needed to cut off the fabric I had. PLEASE check them all for accuracy. Don't make any assumptions.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
To create your HST (half squared triangles) start by <b><u>drawing a pencil line diagonally on the back of your turquoise and gray squares. </u></b></div>

<b><u>Pin turquoise squares at bottom corners as shown. Pin gray squares as shown at top of red piece. </u></b>(Hopefully you can see from the diagram above, that when stitched along the square's diagonal lines, there is the formation of a heart. )</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Stitch along the diagonal lines. Please secure stitches with a few back stitches. Sometimes on a diagonal line, my beginning stitches get bunched up when I back stitch. I like to start in a few stitches and back stitch first before proceeding. </div>

<b><u>PLEASE USE A 1/4" STITCH!! </u></b>The more uniform we can be in our cutting and sewing, the more uniform the squares that we send to each other will be. (I'm finishing a quilt with many squares sent by others. There were several small squares. I had to "square" the rest of the squares down to the size of the small ones. Unfortunately, it messed up the design that was to be created when all of the squares came together.)</div>

As you can see, 1/4" is a bit less than the 1/4" hash on the foot. PLEASE measure your stitches.We can't rely on the measurement of the presser foot.</div>

Here us the finished heart. The gray on top and the turquoise on the bottom work beautifully into the overall pattern of the quilt. My pictures definitely do not show the beauty of the colors.</div>

<br />
<i><span style="color: blue;">I am so embarrassed! It is MY month to post a new square and it is the 20th! You may think that I would be on top of that issue...But, lol, I am not!! Thank goodness we have 2 months for each square right now! I actually thought that I was posting in June. Finally, I have chosen and am working on the tutorial. </span></i><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Anyway, I love seasonal quilts. I have one for several of the Holidays. But I need one for Valentine's Day! Certainly, if I start now, I will have a completed, lovely, heart quilt by 2017!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;">Here is my inspiration.<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; line-height: normal;">.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: red;">I am so excited. I am now running upstairs to see if the pattern that I made will work!</span></div>
