Bunny Bricks Quilt Take Two
Bunny Bricks Quilt Tutorial
Here’s how you can make one:
Supplies: 15 assorted prints, fat quarters or 1/4 yard cuts
1 yard of cream solid cotton
Heat n Bond Lite by Therm O Web for appliqué
1/2 yard fabric for binding
1 1/3 yard fabric for quilt back
cotton batting
Assemble the Bricks:
Cut the 15 assorted prints into 3″ strips x WOF
Sub cut the strips into 6.5″ bricks
Here you can see my 12 rows. The rows will be sewn into sets of 3’s.
Continue sewing the rows together in sets of 3’s. The ends of each row will be uneven because we are offsetting the rows. Once the rows are sewn, press seams to one side and “square up” the edges (below).
Cut the bunny fabric and Heat n Bond roughly the size of the Sizzix Die. Iron Heat n Bond Lite to the wrong side of the fabric. Run the fused piece through the Sizzix to cut the bunny. I cut 2 at a time.
I was completely in love with each and every bunny that I cranked out!!
Peel the backing off the Heat n Bond Lite and position the bunnies as desired. I alternated the direction of the bunnies in each row.
Iron the bunnies into place and top stitch twice around each bunny using black thread.
Now that the quilt top is finished, quilt as desired! I quilted straight lines in the “brick” part and “loop-de-loos” in the bunny part.
Gracie Girl Quilt Tutorial
These Gracie Girl fabrics from Riley Blake are the cutest! I created this quilt to give to a dear friend who recently adopted a baby girl. The quilt should really be called “Harper Girl” because that is the sweet baby’s name. She is a doll. The tutorial can be found on the Riley Blake Website. It’s a super fun pattern and I love how it shows off the wonderful fabrics!
Charming & Thankful Holiday Table Quilt Tutorial
I can’t believe it’s November 14th already! I am sharing my tutorial for my Thankful Table Quilt over on the Therm O Web Blog today. It’s a fun little project using just 1 charm pack and the word “Thankful” appliquéd. It sews up really quick! I just love these fall colors! The charm pack I used is Posh Pumpkins by Moda.

Ella’s Fish Quilt
Hi, I am Ella! My mom is Jedi Craft Girl. Today I am writing a blog post about my fish quilt. I am entering it in the Blogger’s Quilt Festival in the “Throw Quilt” Category. Thanks for stopping by to look at my quilt.
I am 14 years old and I have been sewing since I was 8 years old. I love fish!! I just got back from Hawaii where I got to spend 2 weeks in the ocean. I found this quilt pattern at the Long Beach Quilt Festival. The pattern is called Huki Lau by Beyond the Reef. I got to meet the designer, Natalie Barnes. I loved this pattern because it uses tropical prints and batiks and the appliqué fish are actually outlines of real tropical fish! The quilt measures 54″ x 70″.
I made patterns out of paper and hand cut each fish.
I used Spray n Bond to attach each fish to the background fabric. Then I sewed around each fish.
Totally Boy Crazy Quilt Riley Blake Tutorial
With the leftover scraps I made a few zipper pouches, because I always need more zipper pouches! This one is for my son to keep in his backpack. It holds his Epi-Pen, inhaler, and tissues. (Poor guy)
This one is for me. I am a big Beatles fan 🙂
“Ziggy Baby” Baby Quilt
I LOVE this pattern, Ziggy Baby, from Cluck Cluck Sew! It is so cute and it is FAST & EASY!! I will be making this pattern again and again!!! This is also a great beginner quilt – but it doesn’t look “beginner”…..I don’t think 🙂
I sewed this quilt for a friend’s baby shower this weekend. I secretly wanted to keep it for myself! She loved it!!
