The Double square in a square quilt project is a fresh, modern style quilt, inspired from the Modern square in a square quilt that I shared a while back. This time though, the pattern called for 7x half-yardage, instead of the pre-cut layer cake.

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)

I'm so pleased to share another exciting scrap busting quilt project with you today. The spring casserole quilt is a rail fence style quilt that is relatively simple, yet very delightful and satisfying to make.
With this quilt, I mixed and matched lots of scraps, some are my favorites, some aren't; some are from high quality premium quilting fabrics, some are budget fabrics from chain stores; yet they all come together wonderfully.

Finished quilt measurements : Approx. 62.5" x 70.5" (158.7 x 179 cm)

Here's a new modern layer cake quilt pattern that I am so excited to share with you.
This quilt is super fun and relatively easy to make, and will make an express quilt top.

​The finished measurements of this quilt are approx.  55 1/2" x 64", and for this quilt you will need a full set of layer cake.

For this quilt, I used the ​​Carnaby Street by Maywood Studio layer cake set, that I purchased from an Etsy shop.

Binding a quilt is the last step in quilt making, and to me, it's the most fun part, because I am one step closer in getting a new quilt. 

As many of you reached out and asked me questions related to quilt binding, I decided to make a full tutorial on how to bind a quilt, from determining how many strips you need, cutting and joining the strips. attaching the binding, joining the binding ends, and finishing the binding.

This quilt is a variation of the Crazy Scrap Quilt 1 project that I shared about a year ago, in this project we will do the same scrappy block piecing method, with additional half square triangle tweak. 

Finished Quilt measurements : 74 1/2" x 74 1/2"
Block Measurements : 12" x 12"
​

This is a wonderful project to use up your fabric scraps, that will yield to a generous size quilt with fresh and modern look.

I hope you enjoy this quilting project.
​Happy Sewing!!

The Square in a Square pillow and table runner/wall hanging is an amazing pair that will brighten up your room.  This is a great project to use up some of your favorite charm pack stash, pretty simple yet of course, so much fun to make.

In creating the blocks, I used the same principle as the Modern Layer Cake Square in a Square quilt tutorial that I shared last winter, which has gotten many positive feedback, however with this  project we will use charm pack or the 5" square pre cut fabric.

You may download the pattern and watch the video tutorial by clicking the buttons below.

For the pillow, you will need an 18" x 18" pillow form, and the cover comes with a zipper closure, for easier care.

The measurements of the Table Runner is approximately 15" x 30" and will also look great as a wall hanging.

Today I'd love to share with you my little quilty adventure. This wall hanging project came rather spontaneously. I was having a "creative block" moment where my brain was simply stuck and couldn't figure what to make or what my next move should be, so I stood by my cutting table, grab a couple scraps of fabric, and my rotary cutter, then started cutting, sew, and this quilt happened.

In this project you'll learn how to sew improv style "Quadrant" like curves, it may look intimidating at first if you haven't done it yet, but it is actually pretty simple, and since this is an improv quilt, accuracy is not in your agenda (although yes, we still need to square up each block to make it easier to assemble)

I posted the tutorial on my Youtube channel that you may watch here. or keep reading below for the list of supplies and written instruction.

Let's get started!!
​

1. Prepare your fabric as instructed in the list of supplies above.

2. Lay fabric A right side up, then lay fabric B right side up.

3. With your rotary cutter, make the quadrant shape cut from lower left-ish corner to the top-ish right corner.

4. Swap the layout of the fabric just like shown below.

5. Mark the center point of panel 1 and panel 2 with your fabric marker (it doesn't have to be precise, just estimate).

6. Lay panel 1 and panel 2 right side together, match the center point mark, pin.

7. Sew, starting from the center point mark, down to the edge, then flip the fabric, go back to the center point mark then sew down to the opposite edge. Align the edges of the fabric as you sew, panel 1 might turn out a bit shorter, which is okay.

8. Press the seams towards panel 1
​9. Trim the block to measure 8" x 8"

10. Make 15 more blocks.
11. Layout your blocks as shown here.

12. Sew your quilt blocks together.
13. Layer with batting and backing fabric
14. Quilt as desired
15. Bind, add the hanging sleeve, enjoy.

The Tulips and Pinwheels quilt is a darling throw size quilt that will simply brighten up your day (especially in such unprecedented time like this), another way to ease our mind,  is by picking up some pretty fabrics from our stash, and make a new quilt.
The finished measurements of this quilt is about 58.5" x 58.5", and each block measures 14" squares.
