Cobblestones Cutie Quilt -- Machine Quilting on a Home Sewing Machine

 I design Cutie Patterns and one of my patterns is Cobblestones.  This is a quick, easy, and giftable quilt.

As with all Cutie Patterns, Sweet Tooth uses (16) fat eighths plus extras -- background, borders, binding.  

This quilt looks great with any type of quilting, but I chose to custom quilt this because 
1.  Ribbon Candy is fun to stitch
2.  I love to quilt with rulers
3.  The contrast between these two makes the quilt look ah-ma-zing

Simple border quilting frames this quilt perfectly.

If you are new to quilting with rulers on a home sewing machine, I highly recommend my ruler class from Annie's Catalog; it covers what you need to know to safely use rulers on your home sewing machine.

Watch the video of how I machine quilted this Cobblestones quilt.

I love this Burlap fabric from Benartex.  I have Cutie Packs (16 fat eighths) and yardage available in my shop.

Sweet Tooth Cutie Quilt -- An Old Favorite

I design Cutie Patterns and one of my patterns is Sweet Tooth.  I love to piece these, I love to quilt these, and I love to give these away.

As with all Cutie Patterns, Sweet Tooth uses (16) fat eighths plus extras -- background, borders, binding.  I've made at least 40 of these quilts and predict many more in my future.

My 1 1/2" strip scrap bin is overflowing, so I quickly pieced this scrappy Sweeth Tooth as a giveaway quilt:

I stitched together wool batting strips for this quilt; I don't enjoy the process but it cleans a huge mess from my sewing room and I feel righteous when I'm finished.  The puffy batting combined with the bacon stitch using my walking foot makes this quilt the perfect snuggle buddy.

Did you know that I designed a thread line for WonderFil?  It's called FabuLux. It might be fussy for beginner free-motion quilters but it is PURE DELIGHT in the walking foot no matter your skill level!

I designed "Meditation" as a neutral thread color to work on most quilts, and it worked super-duper well on this quilt.  It's a blend of tan and gray and olive.

Have you tried FabuLux thread in your machine yet?
