Quilting and Patchwork

Quilting with Words & Other Fun Projects

by Mary Emma Allen on December 9th, 2007

I discovered J’s Quilting Blog, an interesting one with projects you might enjoy.  Perhaps they’ll inspire you with your quilting and fabric art.

Warming Up consists of quilting with words!  Joyce Marden added a little house midst a collection of winter words in a piece she has referred to as Winter Words

I couldn’t keep on with such a cold quilt so I added a nice cosy house to get warm in, explained Joyce.  She also added a few more words to the winter collage type work. 

This blog entry, Winter Words, shows Joyce’s quilt before adding the little house.  I do like it better with the house. 

The ABCs of Words on Quilts: Applique & Embroidery Lettering Techniques, Beautiful Projects, 6 Complete Alphabets Perhaps you’ll find some tips here if you want to add words to your quilting.

Another interesting fabric project of Joyce’s consists of Luggage Tags.  This is a great way to use up fabric scraps and have unique tags for your luggage when traveling.  It should be easy to spot Joyce’s bags on the carosel at the airport.
