TTMT 806 – Heirloom Applique (quilty show & tell)

Leave a reply

Today I share a surprise finished quilt. It was even a surprise to me! My energy and inspiration have been loooow, but I always feel better when I am working on something, so here we are!

There are no patterns for Heirloom Applique. The original blocks were made by my great-aunt, passed to my grandmother, and then to my aunt, who gave them to me. I replicated several of the designs using my embroidery software to make machine applique, adding the cats from a drawing by my eldest kiddo. The final design was me trying to make it all work together. I hope you enjoy it!

Interested in my process? I have a playlist of all the videos that includes blocks to quilt!

I forgot to mention my newly re-released free pattern, Turkey Talk!

Today I’m sharing several projects that I’ve held on to for one reason or another, the big one being last week’s BIG video, including a surprise gift from Amber, some kind of mind-blowing free-standing lace, and a finished quilt!

TTMT 801 – ☮, ♥, ☺ for my BFF’s Birthday

I am an amateur at tie-dye! I used easy-to-purchase and easy-to-use dyes for that reason.

All shirts were pre-washed with a free & clear detergent and were damp when they were tied and dyed. Tulip instructions recommend a 6-8 hour dye time, but a rabbit hole of tie-dye info later and I left in a closed zip bag for 24 hours each. It’s hard to argue with the results! Each shirt was hand rinsed until the water was clear and then washed alone twice with detergent, each time with an extra rinse. The zip bags were also washed and dried for reuse for future craft projects.

If you’re looking to make your own tie-dye, I found great inspiration from the following channels:

Supplies I used (affiliate links)

Also used:

October is here and that means new TTMT BOM patterns! I’ve also been working on a slew of gifts, so this week’s video is a short one. Not to worry, I’ll be back soon with much more fun craftiness. One of my favorite videos I’ve ever made is coming up later this month!
