Finishing my Kantha-Style Quilt for the CABIN!
I have had such a lovely time learning how to make this - what I am calling my ‘Kantha Style’ quilt. I thought it might be made over three videos, but once I started stitching I just couldn’t stop until it was finished! I enjoyed making it so much. It is now on the bed in my cabin and I am thrilled with how it looks. In case you missed the first video in this two part series, I will pop a link to the video below!

Support from my lovely Patrons allows me to keep the sofa cushions plump and the plates of biscuits and pots of tea plentiful on The Lime Green Sofa and so for that I am very grateful!

A Wedding Quilt for my friends
Переглядів 97 тис.14 днів тому
I loved making the quilt I call my Terry Quilt because I was inspired by Terry Rowland who has a UA-cam channel and a series of videos all about this technique - The Terry Blocks. My friends were married rather a long time ago and only now am I getting round to making this for them. They are very good friends and quite forgiving! I will be getting them to make quite a bit of this quilt as it pr...

I am making a few different blankets for my cabin. I have been thinking of this one for a while. The history of Kantha Quilting is interesting and I'd like to have a try!

    Hi Kate! I am in northeast Ohio and live with my hubby, two cats and 5 rescue dogs. I am 56 and taught myself to sew and repair vintage sewing machines in part to help me cope with my mom’s Alzheimer’s which led to her passing 3 years ago. You helped me through some tough times and have taught me to just keep sewing as it soothes the soul. Thank you for being so lovely and fun! You are awesome!😊

    This makes me think of a living painting, in that it’s in the process of become as one eye weighs and measures colors in their positions, the lighting and their interactions with they’re neighbors . Is it harmonies or is there a flash that’s starting to ignite??? Only the artist knows. Thanks Kate for all you do ❤🌷🌷🌷

      That's what I'm currently using. I took big binder clips and clipped them along the top, then my brother helped me hang the clips on 3 push pins high on my wall. My current quilt top is on it, waiting for me to sew the rows together and complete the top. The goal is to have a finished quilt by the end of the month.
