Frame – Bookcase Quilt Filler Block, a Year of Doom Paper pieced block. Designed by Jennifer Ofenstein. 10″ finished. Find more like this on Fandom in Stitches. *Free for personal & non-profit use.*

Hello, friends!

I have a new free bookcase quilt along pattern to paper piece over on Fandom in Stitches for today’s installment of a Year of Doom, a multi-fandom bookcase quilt along!

This super simple pattern is a picture frame to fussy cut fabric, add your own printed fabric, or the quilt block of your choice.

The inside of the frame measures 6″x8″ (6 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ with seam allowance).

The block is 10“ (10 1/2“) and will mix and match with any Project of Doom or Year of Doom bookcase quilt block.

The quilt along is taking place during the entire year of 2021. This post includes the patterns that I personally have shared so far. Be sure to check out Fandom in Stitches for more awesome blocks from a wide variety of designers. All designers are volunteers and all patterns are free for personal and non-profit use.

The machine embroidery shown is a personal embellishment and is not included.

The following patterns are designed by me for the Year of Doom and were previously posted on Fandom in Stitches.

Craft: Earring Hanger

10 Replies

I don’t make a lot of New Year’s Resolutions, but I do start each year trying to be more organized. I’m starting with my personal spaces this year; my jewelry, make-up and the like.

I love big, swishy earrings, handmade, hand beaded, felted, you name it. I have loads that were made by friends and a few made by myself, and those are definitely my favorites.

Storage has gotten a bit precarious and I’m usually trying to disentangle the mess and find a missing earring.

For quite a long time, I’ve used a small earring organizer to keep my studs and other small earrings that have a stem and a back. It was time for a new, bigger version so I can finally find all of my fabulous earrings!

You need:

a picture frame with no glass (recycled or raw wood)
plastic canvas
hot melt glue
scissors
ribbon
stapler (a staple gun works great if you have one) or thumb tacks
optional: paint & glitter

Cut the plastic canvas to fit inside your frame.

Optional: Paint the frame the color of your choice. If the frame is recycled and has a finish, you’ll need to give it a light sanding before painting.

I’m particularly fond of glitter…so I sprinkled some on my frame while it was still wet.

Once the paint and glitter are dry, place the plastic canvas inside the back of the frame. Go around all four sides with hot melt glue.

This is what you have now!

Cut a piece of ribbon long enough to reach from one corner of the frame to the other, plus a little for turning under on the ends. The length here depends on how you want your final product to look and how much of the ribbon you’d like to show. Turn the ends under and staple or tack in place.
