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?
