Woolie Moments

After sharing my NEW 2016 list
of Stitch-a-Longs,
I felt like I needed to
finish another one
that I had worked on last year.

Stacy West of Buttermilk Basin
shared these wooly moments
as a BOM.


 I was able to dig into the wool bins
and find the perfect pieces to make
these blocks month by month.
The block backgrounds
were plaid flannels from long ago.


They were fun, easy and relaxing.
The kind of stitching that makes
for a perfect take along project.

I opted for a different setting
than what was suggested
and quickly framed the blocks
with gold flannel stars and a narrow flannel border.



The only machine quilting was around
the blocks and stars.

This quilt was another fantastic free pattern 
offered by Stacy, who's a terrific and generous designer.

And guess what?

There's a new one on her website for this year.
Check it out.
You know I have.


Until Next Time-

  8. Definitely a more doable setting than the bazillion HSTs in her finish, and it looks just as great! I really like how cozy and homey this turned out. Nice job!

  12. Smart of you to go back and finish your wool blocks among the start of all the new quilt projects. I have only found time to go back and finish one project and all it needed was binding. One of these days, I hope to make the wool designs I saved from Buttermilk Basin.
