JOY by Jean M

This week’s challenge brought to mind the tester pattern that I could finally show the world! Kristy @quietplay did an awesome job creating this paper piecing project! 




This was made at CMQG retreat in Kunibunk, Maine. My 1st time at this retreat.

Abecedarius Tumbling Block Quilt by Nancy H

Project Quilting Challenge 10.5 ~ Abecedarius

This was created for the Project Quilting online challenge. You get a week to complete a whole quilt based on a theme. Anyone can vote for their favorite.

This week’s theme was to be inspired by the alphabet so I decided to make a tumbling block quilt with the letters embroidered on the blocks.

My quilt is 20”x27”.

Design It, Stitch It: Hand Embroidery

Microwave Bowl Caddies by Barb

Did not believe I would have a 10.5 Challenge entry as my week was filled with other then quilting 😕appointments!!    


It sounded so fun and I love to hand embroider; applique, and embellish .. I had lots and lots of grand 'ideas'... Come noon today, Sat.--less then 24 hrs from deadline ...I'd not begun..., my machine was calling, the fabric was ready and once I scaled, WAY DOWN, my grand ideas....its DONE... and ready to post,  these bowls do NOT photograph well at all...

This is my completed 10.5 “abecedarius” Challenge entry..... .....two wonderful, useful microwave bowl 'caddies'...With machine letters, not alphabet soup as was one of my more 'grand' ideas, but sort of stayed on the theme......used just 3 fat quarters [that are actually for a Guild Challenge as well😁].... 


 I sure am getting a lot out of this week's Challenge... Thanks for the fun!!!🥰 ... the 4th picture is the bit left over of the three fat quarters... would have been fancy applique had I got going sooner!!!! 🤣

Spelling Bee Book by Lori Holt

Quimby by Cherese C

"Quimby"  

When I was younger I loved to read Beverly Cleary.  I loved Ramona.  She was clever and creative. One thing that has struck with me for years was that she always turned the Q for her last name into a cat. 



Most notably was her name card on her desk at school. A substitute teacher even called her Ramona Kitty-cat. This little quilt pays homage to that.

Yggdrasil by Anneliese B

My name is Anneliese Bopp and this is my challenge quilt for the Project QUILTING Abecedarius Challenge



I went with the Viking Runic alphabet surrounding  Yggdrasil, the Norse Tree of Life. I have a rug hooked tree of life hanging in my dining room from a past life (before quilting). I guess I have a thing for trees.
