Open Spaces Challenge

This project is a free motion quilting challenge by Angela Walters from last year. I bought the panel and added the extra border strips which was also printed as a panel. The challenge was to expand your experience with large background or open spaces. The videos are free. You can get the supplies at

LG Negative Spaces Challenge Panel | Quilting Is My Therapy

So quilting large open spaces is not my area of excellence. I seem to be mostly a block by block quilter. I am most comfortable letting shapes guide my quilting design. I forced myself into each quilting session. I wanted to make each area different, so I even did free motion designs that I had avoided in the past due to lack of confidence.

I am fine with how it turned out. Actually, I'm not thrilled about the quilt colors or design of the panel, but wanted to experience the challenge. Maybe it will appeal to the younger set? Most of my quilts are made just for the joy of the process and are happily passed on when finished.

This quilt has very detailed stitching, so many close up photos were necessary. I neglected to photo the back but it is a wide back of red, white & blue. It finished at 64 x 74.

I'm joining these lovely linky parties this week. Please be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

Now for Round 6 of the Stay at Home Round Robin project. You will find the prompt for Round 6 offered by AnjaQuilts . She said ' quilters creative choice'; which is a great prompt at this stage in our projects.

I felt my round 5 looked unfinished, so I complicated my round 6 by making the sides different from the top and bottom. In addition, I had specific colors on each wing of the geese BUT as I sewed them, my geese were upside down to add the wings. This made all my colors in the wrong place. I did ALOT of unstitching on this round! My project now measures 51 x 60.

I declare my project STILL looks unfinished, so I am determined to work up a Round 7 with the remaining pieces of this fabric collection.

I'm joining Anja's linky HERE and my weekly parties. Please be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

A Quilters Cove - Green Gables-Block 2

It's time to share my neighborhood house constructed in greens for February's RSC color as hosted by Angela of Soscrappy.

This block will measure 9" x 10-1/2" when sewn into the quilt. I used a blanket stitch around most of the elements and a straight stitch on the small pieces. I love the flowering trees which accent the greens so nicely. Hmmm, no one can enter the house until I remember to install the door handle!

Andree of Quilting & Learning - What a Combo! hosts a linky party on the last Saturday of each month to share our housing projects. Plus, you can find all the links related to our housing project on "A Quilters Cove" page listed at the top HERE .

Also, be sure to visit these linky parties this week to see what other creative quilters are sharing.
