Half Square Triangle Quilt for Project Linus and some NEWS!

[@jillstrickland9336]

My daughter was the recipient of a Project Linus quilt while in the hospital a few years ago. It was so appreciated!

You're like hot chocolate and whipped cream on a cold winter's day. Thank you, Kate.

[@sickoftheshit]

Any info on the Linus Project? I make childrens quilts and if I could donate some, I would love to. I hope your granddaughter is recovered and doing well.

Such a beautiful quilt, and I always love HST’s. I can’t help but think that, from what you have said before, this quilt would have been one that your mum would have loved with the beautiful purples and lavenders. I always enjoy the videos that you are sewing on a quilt or another project. They are always so inspiring. Happy quilting, and blessing to you…….

[@juliekriz4867]

Kate, you have been such an inspiration to me since I started watching your channel about a year ago. So thank you. I wanted to tell you that I’ve begun quilting with my mom, who just turned 84, and is a lifelong sewist. I’ve always been more of a knitter, but I have discovered that I also enjoy making quilts. It’s been a wonderful way to connect with my mom! I just finished my very first quilt, and guess what? It’s a pinwheel quilt! I pieced it together from fabrics from my mom’s huge fabric stash. So I was delighted with today’s video!

[@norahmcphee4928]

Good evening Kate, this is a beautiful set of fabrics and i think i remember you saying that it was your beloved mum's favourite colours. What a lovely way to keep your mum's memory alive by making her favourite colours into such a lovely gift for that someone who needs it most. I can see a wee girl falling in love with the colours in this hug in a quilt and it being there to close around her when she needs that solitude of a much wanted hug. I have been making my granddaughter a quilt so that as she grows she will always have her Granny Phee there to hug her, when i am not there. The one that i am making is 110" x 98" which i know is going to be caressing the floor because her bed is only a wee single as she is just 4, but it is going to be big enough for any bed that she has growing, but also for her cuddling with mummy and daddy on the settee watching a good film. I hope that like Scarlett, the wee one that gets your quilt manages to keep it with them for whenever she needs it. THank you Kate for another wonderful gift. Sending you hugs from over the border, Norah, Glenochil Village, Central Scotland

[@dararowland8749]

When you began showing the gorgeous Liberty quilting cottons I thought you were going to say you are paying homage to you mum.

[@vivianweissmann217]

Dear Kate, what an inspiration you are to those of us on the lime green couch. I love how this quilt turned out, and the back is so pretty too. I think I'm going to try making this; you make it look so effortless for this beginner. Thank you, as always, for sharing your life with us; stay well.

[@sarahferrell5458]

Thanks, Kate! Very cute. Someone will definitely enjoy your generous gift.

And now I’m thinking I’ll whip up an easy pinwheel project-funny, too, because I bought supplies to make potholders to give as gifts! Great minds, ay?!?! Lolol ❤

Oh Kate. Love, love the pinwheels. How lovely. I was looking at your kitchen chair pads again. I have a sister-in-law who quilts and is about to send me one I commissioned her to do for me due to my waning eye sight. Can’t wait to see it. It’s done with all of the Asian fat quarter fabrics I gathered over the years. Since I’ve saved my eyes for my full time painting, I’ve turned my quilt ideas over to her. Kaffe Fassett will become my kitchen chair cover designer. Thank you for all of the inspiration the past few years. Hugs, Felicia from California.

I can't help wondering if the child who receives this gift realises that the fabric is by Liberty and is fascinated by it. Wouldn't it be wonderful if not only are they comforted by this quilt but also inspired to create quilts to gift for others in their future? God bless this quilt and its recipient.

Just got started on another baby 😊 granddaughter is having a baby in May. Got the top done already. So wish me luck, The month of May. is not to far off. And am having total knee surgery April 4th. So i am working to get it done befor surgery. Am sure I will, I'm very determined. Thank you for being you, I love listening to you and watching you and Anna Work so well together.

This quilt turned out so lovely Kate. I especially loved seeing someone whose pinwheel center points were not 100% perfect. It still turned out lovely despite that. It gives me confidence that if my blocks are not exactly 100% perfect I can still make something lovely out of it.

[@nicolethijs5428]

I like mine to be perfect so I hand sew.

[@pattyhansen7563]

I don't worry about 'perfect'. I worry about if it will be well loved! So I like to get it finished, even if a little less than perfect & into someone's life. Often when you give something that is perfect-perfect there are a ton of expectations that it will STAY perfect; which equates to the person being afraid to use it & just putting it away OR they use & abuse it & you feel a let down because it was so perfect & they 'ruined' it. I have cautioned my perfectionist sewing daughter about this. She has gifted some very perfect, very time consuming patterned quilts to people with babies/toddlers. I went to one friend's house & she had used it as a couch 'cover' because their springer spaniel would go out & get muddy & jump up on the couch. She used my daughter's precious QUILT to take up the mud to protect the couch, of all things. I knew how much time my daughter put into that quilt & felt a bit heartsick. But once you give a gift to someone you don't get to dictate how they use it. So especially for kids quilts, don't worry about fussy patterns or perfect corners.

[@ostrobogulous1]

​@pattyhansen7563 I completely agree with your comment. I spent hours and hours (intricate hand stitching) making something special for my sister to wear and she [very proudly] told me that she took it along to the vet, to stay a couple of nights in the cage WITH HER CAT, after the cat had an abdominal surgery!!!!! I was devastated. 😢 All that time WASTED making something special for HER, and for what?!? It was like telling me she lined the litter box with it!!!!! If she needed a cozy blanket for her cat, I would have made something for her cat. That taught me a good lesson. I no longer attach emotion to inanimate objects. I make things solely for my own "busy hands" pleasure and enjoy the process. Although, I still strive for perfection (only because I enjoy the challenge of being precise) - now, what happens to that item once it's finished is completely irrelevant to me.

[@nicolethijs5428]

@@ostrobogulous1 thats devestating! I just try to be precies only because its bugs me when points do not meet. I am bugged for the moment because I made a small quilt and the yellow sashing I used is obviously from two different colour baths and even it being a very uninportant quilt, I know that if I don’t change it it will bug me forever!

[@ostrobogulous1]

I hear you! The different yellows would definitely bug me, too!!!!!
