HALLOWEEN TWIST!

Who remembers the TWISTER RULERS?

I came across mine and thought…

This was wonky before wonky was cool!

Lemme make another to add to my 

‘Let’s  Get Wonky’ trunk show!

The 10” TWISTER was perfect for using a Layer Cake.

Halloween Holiday Essentials

By Stacy Lest Hsu!

Notice the ruler lines.

 36, 10” squares on the design wall.

Sew em up!

Then a 6” border was needed to frame the squares 

Lay the ruler on the intersections lining up tbe ruler lines.

Cut around the ruler, as directed, to get the twister squares.

Cut the leftover pieces into usable scraps for a future project!

Toss the birds nest trimmings. 

Put all the blocks back on design wall.

Numbered pins help keep them in order.

Sew everything back together again!

Sew the design goes from boring…

To TWISTED or wonky!

Kinda fun!

I pieced together a backing using 

GRUNGE and some OOP Ghastlies chevron.

Ready to be quilted! 

2026 QUILT IDEAS!

I’m always figuring out 2026 Project

Here are some I may or may not get too.

We will see,😝 

HodgePodge has been on my mind for a very long time.

Indecidive about the fabrics.

I am lovin this Navy, Green and Rust!

 I’ve been dilly dallying with this one for way to long. 

It’s got some wonderful OOP fabrics in the mix on the ROUNDABOUT! 

I suppose I could JUST take this to retreat and see what happens. 

Guess what, I did cut this one out and it’s sew vibrant 

I might need to sew it just to brighten up the dreary winter days.

I want to make this for a March Irish Quilt.

Maybe I’ll get it cut before March.

And one that I’ve thought about for a very long time…

Finally is cut. Another Ghastlies Quilt.

You’ll have to wait and see it to believe it! 

This list could go on and on……..

I’ve already finished 3 quilts NOT on the LIST! 

2025 QUILT FINISHES

It’s Valentine’s Day

And I love my quilts!

I hope you do too!

I didn't get a full photo of this beachy feeling quilt for

Laressa, my person in Myrtle Beach who helps me

book my resort when I visit my son!

Summer Picnic is a winner!

Starstruck Ghastlies used up a lot of my OOP stash!

I'm talking early lines from 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012

Twisted Geese, by Zen Chic was a fun one

and now I'm not afraid of a gaggle of geese!

This was a pattern test called Sweet Mae.

And the FQs were by Zen Chic as well.

A wonky churn dash used up a layer cake I had in my stash.

I love this design...tutorial by Missouri Star, Freestyle Churn Dash.

I finally finished some Ghastlie wonky star blocks into a top.

This was all part of a IG swap many years ago.

Oh now we are talking about some more wonky flying geese,

Monkey Wrench pattern and more Zen Chic fabrics.

Fall Breeze by V & Co

Fabric is GRUNGE set on a light gray tone on tone.

I finished a baby quilt for our great-granddaughter

and Great-grandad Phil snuggled under it!

When she arrives…her name will be

Anora Blair Chatman

Last but not least was Felicity the Feisty Flamingo.

A mini quilt for my sewing room!

Collage by Laurie Heine!

I had a good year...and 2026 will be as much fun as 2025!

KWILTY GIRLS GIFTS
