New Button ! and a give-away.

We have a new button on the right side margin.
If you want to add the button to your web-page, or want to replace the old one with the new, copy the html-code, and insert where you want the button.
It should work :-)

And then the give-away : Linda and Tilde have been collaborating on a new free pattern for the free Inklingo collection ! To celebrate that, and the season, they have a give-away. Go check their blogs to see what it is about.

Orange Peel Deluxe

Cathi used the Orange Peel Deluxe collection to make this Alabama Beauty block.

The curves are very gentle which makes for very enjoyable stitching.

Improved 9-Patch

With the new Orange Peel Deluxe collection, Cathi made this Improved 9-Patch block.

It finishes at 8". It's an absolute breeze to stitch curves with the wonderful matching points.

China Plates - POTC

Cathi couldn't resist making some China plates using the collection of larger POTC hexagons (1.5"), squares and QST's.

Jane Austen Patchwork

Martha has started another quilt using shapes from the Jane Austen Patchwork collection.

She writes: "I was overcome by the need to make something big so ... my spoonflower fabric and the large diamond from the Jane Austen inklingo collection. I think I will do some machine appliqué in the corners."

POTC - Lucy Boston

Joan has been making more of her gorgeous POTC blocks. It's well worth taking the time to click on each picture and see a larger version. The fussy cutting/printing Joan has done resulted in some wonderful effects.

POTC - Lucy Boston

Kathy is working on her Patchwork of the Crosses and writes:

"I have all of the larger blocks done and I am now working on the connectors and then the backgrounds. This picture is of my POTC blocks. They are out of orientals and are all hand pieced."

Jane Austen Quilt

Martha has just two more long seams to go and her beautiful top, made using the Jane Austen Collection, will be put together.

Butterflies in my Grandmother's garden

Peggy made her own version of Jillian's wonderful pattern "Dakota Delights".
She writes :
I am sending a picture of "Butterflies in My Grandmother's Garden. It is a 21 x 26" wall-hanging.
The background and butterflies were made using the 1" hexagons in Collection # 1, and the applique flowers were made with the 0.25" hexagon collection.

Size of finished project : 21 x 26"

Ellen also made this two-colour Lone Star with the free collection.

Ellen made this wonderful quilt, using the Inklingo Free Collection for the centre Broken Star medallion, and the corner LeMoyne stars.

The applique is from Sentimental Stitches, the Sally Post Floral Sampler

Finished size of project is 81" square.

Jane Austen quilt

Linda in NY has been busy with the Jane Austen collection. She writes :

I loved making this. I actually made 2 for twin beds in my guest room and they are identical. I am still deciding what I want for borders. I machine pieced this and particularly enjoyed placing each diamond to maximize the symmetrical effect. I did fussy cut the fabrics that were suited to fussy cutting.

Double Wedding Ring Table Topper

Ruby finished this cute, cute, cute DWR table-topper.

Makes me long for spring !

Tumbling Blocks / Baby Blocks

Sue has fallen for the new 3" diamond-shapes (Inklingo Lite # 7) and has started a Tumbling Blocks project.

She writes :

These were sewn on the machine and went together so easily. The tumbler blocks are not sewn to each other as I will continue to add many more. Really like the way they look.

Double Wedding Ring wall-hanging

Lois shares her DWR in progress.
She writes :
It is all musical prints and will be wall hanging when done. I wish I were sending finished project but no time right now. I love DWR and putting it together is so easy with Inklingo.

Well, I for one look forward to seeing the finished project, Lois !

Another Apple Core mini bag

Elly won a kit to make this bag when we had the Great Inklingo Give-Away, and has now finished it.

Looking good, Elly !

Size of project : approximately 6", plus handles

POTC - Lucy Boston

Joan is still making loads of POTC blocks, all of which look wonderful to my eyes :-)
And she has even included a picture of her design-wall ... showing acute signs of Inklingoitis. (Click on the pictures to see the blocks in a larger version, it is worth the effort).

Drunkard's Path

Another one of Linda's sampler-tops.

This one features the Drunkard's Path collection, and shows (some of) the possibilities of the components.

Size of project : 21 x 48"

Double Wedding Ring Table Runner / Sampler

And here is what could be called a Double Wedding Ring Sampler
Linda writes :

I am really proud of this one, because I used every single shape in the collection !

Well, good for you ! and how great that we can see all the different shapes in cloth, now.

Inklingo Sampler

Again Linda D. (She really has been busy !)
This is Linda's Christmas version of the square blocks from the Inklingo Sampler.

The blocks are 6", and the top is 37" square.

Hexagon Sampler

Linda D. has been busy making lots of tops for demonstrating Inklingo at a quilt-show.

This is her hexagon sampler, where she has used the hexagon bonus-blocks from the Inklingo Sampler-blog, and Inklingo KISS 101 for the setting.

Circle of Swallows quilt

Jeannette from South Australia made this great quilt with the Circle of Swallows block.

She writes :

here is a picture of my latest quilt. It is made with the free Lemoyne Star and 3" hst's from Collection 2.

I hand pieced the blocks and joined them together with my machine.
The white background is stipple quilted and the border is a geometric design formed from the shape of the triangles.
It is machine quilted.
The quilt measures 41"x51" and the blocks are 10"x10" finished. .

Candied Hexagons

Tammi has started her dream-project. It's an elderly pattern from a now sold-out magazine, and it's called "Candied Hexagons".

She is using Collection # 3 to make the individual hexagons, and each hexagon finish at 3"


... oh, and you can find patterns for the two types of stars found here, on the Inklingo Sampler blog.

More POTC - Lucy Boston

Joan seems unable to stop herself. Here's another 5 gorgeous POTC blocks from her hand.

The top one has had the background fabric hexagons added, and one strip of the square "joiners"
