You will adore these potholders to complement your kitchen this autumn season. The pumpkin appliqué is too adorable and so much fun to make. The solid version option allows you to create these in any theme/color, for any season. I can't wait to make few for Christmas too :)

Finished measurements : approx. 7 1/2" x 10" (19 x 25.4 cm). Download the pattern (free) by clicking the button below ⬇️

Today I'd like to share this fun double oven mitts "quilty" project. These oven mitts are not only very functional in protecting your hands from the heat, they're also adorable, and will brighten up your kitchen. 

These will work great especially for handling larger stuffs such as pizza stone, casserole dish, cookie sheet, etc. Make one or several for yourself, and for gifting purpose too :).

Finished measurements : approx. 34 1/2" x 7 1/2" (88 x 19 cm)

I created two versions of this project, the first version is the patchwork version (a great way to use up some of your fabric scraps, or leftover fabric from previous project). The second version is the "solid" version, same dimensions but without the patchwork.

In the video tutorial I also show you how to make your own bias tape for binding the oven mitts.

I can never get enough of the improv quilting. It is the kind of project that I do when I'm experiencing creative block. I simply love the liberating, no hard rules, no precise measurements to follow along, and the one of a kind result of each piece, that always brings a smile on my face.

There are different kinds of improv piecing, which can be incorporated to many different projects, but what I'm going to show you today is the freeform curves. This method is similar to the modern wall hanging quilt project that I shared a couple of years ago; in that video I used some jelly roll strips, and arbitrary piece each strip without much of a planning.

This time, we're going to stick to a theme which is the seaside or beach landscape. The choice of color shades is rather intentional, compare to the former, yet it is also so much fun.

FABRIC
Solid fabric in various shades color to create the sunset and the water effect, about 1/8-1/4 yard each, or yo may also use fat eight.
I ended up using 5 shades of color for the sky (upper section), and 8 shades of color for the water+sand (lower section).
You may use less or more color shades depending on the look that you want to achieve.
Beside solids, batik fabric will also work beautifully for this project.

1/6 yard of border fabric.
1/4 yard of binding fabric
23" x 32" Batting
25" x 34" Backing fabric

Make this charming quilt using a set of layer cake (pre cut 10" square fabrics). The Island Path quilt is such a lovely, pretty large in size, yet relatively simple to create.

Block measurements : 11 1/2" x 11 1/2" (29.2cm x 29.2cm)

What you need to make this quilt

Layer Cake 
1 full set of layer cake or 42 pieces of 10" squares. I use batik layer cake fabrics, but you can use any theme/colors that you desire.
2 1/3 yard of background fabric
I use Kona fabric in off-white color.
5/8 yard border fabric
I opt for narrow border for this quilt (2 1/2" wide), feel free to make wider border (adjust the measurements and the amount of fabric needed accordingly). 
72" x 83" batting
Choose any batting that you like. I personally prefer 100% cotton batting, which is light and easy to work with.
4 1/2 yard backing fabric
5/8 yard binding fabric
Machine quilting thread (if opt machine quilting) 
Basic sewing /quilting notions

What can I use instead of layer cake?
You may cut individual pieces of each fabric panel according to the listed measurements. Fat quarters, yardage, even fabric scraps will work (the amount of fabric that you need may vary depending on how many variation of each fabric that you use).

What fabric line did you use for this project?
I mixed different lines of batik fabric for this project, most of the pieces are from the layer cake, and some I cut individually from yardage. I would say that most of them are Indonesian Batik. 

Please watch the full video tutorial on my Youtube channel, and happy sewing.

What you need to make this quilt

42x Jelly roll strips - 2 1/2” x 44“ (6.4 x 111 cm) strips
1x full bundle of jelly roll strips should suffice for this project, however each manufacturer
may vary in the amount of strips given in a package, (somewhere between 38-45 strips).
If yours is less than 42 pcs, cut few extra strips in neutral colors to get the required amount.
2/3 yard border fabric
I use Kona fabric in off-white color to pull this quilt together
58” x 66”(147 x 168 cm) batting
use batting of your choice, I always prefer cotton batting since it's breathable and easy to work with
3 1/2 yard backing fabric   
1/2 yard binding fabric
Note: yardage requirements are estimated, based on standard 44” wide cotton quilting fabric.

Machine quilting thread (if opt machine quilting) 
Basic sewing /quilting notions

What fabric did I use to make this quilt?
I did mix and match several fabric lines, gathering leftover and half opened jelly roll strips that have been accumulating in my stash. Although I would guess about 60% of the fabrics are from French General by Moda Fabrics.

Please watch the full video tutorial on my Youtube channel, and happy quilting.

Finished quilt measurements : Approximately 57 1/2" x 66" (throw size).

Finished block : 9" x 9"

The surprise me quilt wall hanging is an express and quite exciting charm pack project. There is no particular layout for the half square triangles blocks, hence each quilt would be unique and one of a kind.

Finished quilt measurements : Approx. 17 1/2" x 38 1/2" (44 x 96.8 cm)
