Whirling around

Oh my goodness, it’s been a crazy week around here! Announcing the Potholder Swap earlier this week and getting ready for it has kept me on my toes! I’m very excited about the swap and the new pattern I wrote for it, but it has been quite the journey this week getting ready for it.

If you haven’t seen it yet, Hollyhock is the name of the pattern for the swap. I’ll have the pattern up on my Etsy site very soon if you want to make yourself a potholder but don’t want to join the swap.

I was able to grab a few moments to work on the Quilt Concert Series which was refreshing. It’s so nice to find time at the sewing machine.

Are you ready to work on the next block? It’s called Whirligig. I love saying that word, it just rolls off the tongue.

Whirligig is now available at The Not So Dramatic Life

There are only 2 blocks left to go, but all previous blocks are available! Head to The Not So Dramatic Life for cutting instructions and the even numbered block patterns and to Shoppe Lovingly Lissa for the odd numbered block patterns.

Our Sponsors this Week

We have two wonderful sponsors for the Quilt Concert this week. Let me present them to you.

Sew to Speak is a glorious local quilt shop in Worthington, Ohio. It is stocked with quilting cotton, garment fabric, and skeins and skeins of various yarns. There is always a warm welcome waiting for you and plenty of help if you need an extra set of eyes picking the perfect fabric.

Make Modern is Australia’s only dedicated modern quilt magazine. It began in 2014 when a group of passionate quilters had a dream of producing a magazine for quilters, by quilters, filled with beautiful patterns and articles to inspire quilters like us to make more modern quilts!

FALL SWAP ANNOUNCEMENT

And now…. the moment you have all been waiting for!

POTHOLDER SWAP 2021

Baking season is arriving very soon, and what better way to start off creating all those delicious goodies than with a brand new pair of Potholders and Oven Mitts?

Yup, you read that right. Participants are making 2 (TWO) potholders/oven mitts for their partner!

All paid participants will receive my Hollyhocks Potholder pattern. You do not need to make this pattern for your partner.

This is a great pattern for anyone who has never paper pieced before. I’ve included step by step paper piecing instructions with diagrams! Also, step by step binding instructions for anyone who hasn’t put binding on a non-90 degree angle before. There are a lot of diagrams….seriously…. a lot.

Want the pattern, but don’t want to be in the SWAP? That’s okay! The pattern will be available at Shoppe Lovingly Lissa

SPONSOR!!!

I am so excited to announce that Hancock’s of Paducah will be sponsoring this SWAP!!! If you post by the deadlines using the #potholderswap2021 and #lovinglylissaswaps hashtags you will be entered. No worries if you live outside the United States, because I will substitute a $15 gift card to a local quilt shop for you. Winners are chosen by a random number generator.

For more details on the Swap head over to the SWAP INFO PAGE.

There are a myriad of potholder and oven mitt patterns out there in the big wide world. But to get you started with some ideas a few Pattern Designer Friends of mine have sent me the links to their patterns and tutorials.

First, let’s start with some cute oven mitts for your small helpers. These toddler oven mitts from Geeky Bobbin are too cute! It’s the kind of thing that makes me wish my kids were still little (and that doesn’t happen often).

Here are some awesome tutorials…

Bobbin in Quilts has a great photo tutorial for these potholders.

And here is a beautiful folded star potholder from Patchwork and Poodles.

Want a potholder with pockets? Check out Ameroonie Designs for this tutorial and more! She has several potholder tutorials available.

Have you wanted to learn Quilt as You Go? Here is your opportunity from Confessions of a Homeschooler.

And you absolutely cannot go wrong with these adorable Cupcake Potholders from Blossom Heart Quilts.

So how about it? Are you ready to join the swap? Early sign ups are available to newsletter subscribers (sign up below) starting Friday, September 23rd. It will open for everyone on Monday the 27th.

Happy Swapping!!

“I can still hear you saying”

“You would never break the chain”

So, we really didn’t choose our blocks based on songs, but it is always wonderful when when of them creates an earworm for a while.

This week is Malvina’s Chain. It really is a simple block, with a bit of a challenge thrown in. There are 9 hour glass blocks, which are simple enough to create…if they were all two color blocks. LOL! Two of the blocks in Malvina’s Chain have THREE colors, so it’s a bit of a twist and a bit of a think through. Please be sure to read all the directions first!

Malvina’s Chain Block Pattern can be purchased at Shoppe Lovingly Lissa

We are getting closer and closer to the end of the Quilt Concert! If you are missing a block, there is plenty of time to catch up. Visit The Not So Dramatic Life Etsy for cutting instructions and all even numbered blocks, Shoppe Lovingly Lissa is where you will find the odd blocks.

Our Sponsor this Week

Color Girl Quilts is our wonderful sponsor this week. Check out her great patterns and curated fabric bundles. Sharon has a wonderful way with color and fabrics and always knows the exact right ones to put together (I’m really jealous of this). Also, she is the creator of the Classic Curves Ruler, seriously people, if you ever wanted to create a quilt with a curve this is the ruler to do it with!!! I lost all fear of creating curves with this ruler.

Sharon will be sending one U.S. Concert Goer this fabric bundle from the Aerial line by Tamara Kate for Windham Fabrics. I have loved this line since it came out and have managed to find uses for at least three of the fabrics, so you may have seen them recently in my feed. (Or even in this post, hint hint)

And send it soaring!!!!!

I love the blocks that bring songs to my mind. Well, I love all the blocks in First Notes, who am I kidding?

Fun Fact

The Wyoming Valley is NOT in Wyoming, it is Pennsylvania. Did you already know that? I didn’t, but Sister Jaquelyn made me take Calculus and not Geography my senior year of High School. I may not know what is East and West of me, but boy I could derive integrals like nobody’s business way back when. (secret: I honestly loved Calculus and all Math, but I still wish I could have taken Geography too)

Now that I’ve got that off my chest, let’s get on with Block #10 in First Notes of the Quilt Concert Series.

I really love the options to this block. By playing with value and color placement, you can create so many star shapes out of one quilt block!

Block 10 can be found at The (Not So) Dramatic Life Etsy Shop.

I cannot wait to see all the interpretations this week. That’s been such a wonderful part of this Quilt Concert, I really love seeing all the different ways each block is made. I cannot wait to see all the quilt tops!!!

Week 11 Sponsors!!!

We have two wonderful Sponsors this week!!!

Dabble and Stitch is a wonderful online shop of beautifully curated fabrics. I’m actually excited because by the time you read this, I’ll have gone to their local pop up shop that they are having today and tomorrow! They are sending one U.S. resident a $50 gift card to the online store.

The Sewing Loft has amazing single block patterns ready to download. Seriously, they are all so cute it is hard to pick one. Luckily the winner will be able to choose a 10 block bundle! I’m a little bit jealous to be honest.

Time to buy a lottery ticket

I’m not saying this week’s block will win you big money, but it is called Good Luck Token, so you never know!!

I found this block to be very interesting to piece together. It took me some time to properly pattern it in the easiest way possible, without much waste. I love problem solving like that. I enjoy those “lightbulb” moments when everything falls into place. Creating the pattern for this block was one of those moments.

There is a new method in this block that we haven’t used before in the Quilt Concert Series. You will be using a template included in the pattern to create the individual triangles.

Block Tip!

Before you trace and cut out the triangles of this block, use Best Press or another spray starch on it. This helps prevent the bias edge from stretching and making the block wonky!!!

Good Luck Token can now be purchased for $2 at Shoppe Lovingly Lissa

Do you need to catch up with previous week blocks? The cutting directions and all even numbered blocks can be found at The Not So Dramatic Life Etsy Shop and all odd number blocks can be found at Shoppe Lovingly Lissa Etsy Shop.

Sponsors and Giveaways!!

Week 8 brings us two wonderful Sponsors! Quilt Beginnings and Oliven.

To enter this week’s Giveaway you must do the following!!

1-post a photo of Good Luck Token on Instagram using a public Instagram account by 11:59pm Eastern on Thursday, August 5, 2021 (if you don’t want to make your primary account public, you can always create a second, public account to use for this quilt along and other projects like this)
