Number... I don't even know. 🤷 All I know is that I finished up 3 more today and I'm picking fabrics for the last ten!! 👊 I'm trying to get this finished so I can share it in my presentation that I'm giving on Friday (Oct 26th) for the @ms_quilters's Fall Gathering! I'm so looking forward to it! If you're in the area, I hope you'll come! 😘

Are you sick of these yet?! 🤷😁 It's almost time to start putting them together and I can't wait!!

I've started thinking about how to quilt it, and am wondering... As a pattern designer, I really want my patterns to stand out in a quilt, so I typically stay with pretty basic quilting designs. So the pattern is what gets your attention (the part that everyone can make). But I also know how good quilting can really take a quilt to the next level! 😍 (But here's the dilemma - not everyone has access to amazing quilters, or has the ability to quit it themselves - which I completely and fully support learning how to quilt your own quilts!! 👍👍)
But how do you feel about that?!! I've seen very basic quilt patterns given new life with their quilting, but otherwise it would be a rather dull pattern. If you see an amazing quilt with amazing quilting - do you buy the pattern because the whole quilt looks amazing only to be discouraged that you don't know how to quilt like the one you saw so your quilt is not what you had hoped it to be? (Ok, I am COMPLETELY sharing my own thought process right now of what would be going through my head, or what does go through my head... 🤦) ❤️ But I want to know what you think?!! Does the quilting contribute to you buying a pattern? Or not buying a pattern? Does it sometimes intimidate you and scare you away? Or does it inspire and motivate you?
Please let me know in the comments! I'm super curious and would love to hear your thoughts. +++
PS. This home Lovin block has 4 - 3 inch Locked in Spots blocks inside. 👍 Patterns available in my shop.
Prints are by @giucy_giuce

Another Home Lovin block! The center is Stay Skyline. 🌟

In other news, I have completely revamped my River Pond pattern! If you have purchased it from my shop you can now login to your account and download the updated pattern. ❤️ What was only going to be a small update turned into basically a total rewrite (of the parts that had rome for improvement). The quilt is now longer, the pattern has more diagrams and more detailed instructions in a few steps, is reformatted for ease of use and better printing quality (especially if your printing on greyscale), and more!! If you haven't purchased the pattern before, now is a great time to do so!! I'm going to be remaking it and will post stuff as I go, if you'd like to make one along with me (though I'm not hosting a formal quilt along - because I kind of suck at that right now 🤪🙄). 😁 😏

Slow dropping more Home Lovin blocks into your feed!! 😏😁 For the center of this house, I used a portion of my Rockstar pattern!! These prints by @giucy_giuce are just what I need on this dreary day. 🌥️
+++
PS. I purchased all this fabric myself, in case anyone was wondering. I really do just like these fabrics and was excited to use them in this quilt, and so far, it's been a fabulous choice! 😍 So when I keep tagging @giucy_giuce it's simply to share the love of his awesome creations. (Not because anyone made me. 😜 because I know that happens to, and that's also ok! 👍)

I love how vintage some if these color combinations are with these @giucy_giuce prints! 😍 I need to make an entirely vintage style quilt. 👍👍

The center of this Home Lovin block is the Star heart from my Heart Attack pattern. #fbpHomeLovin #fbpHeartAttack #giucygiuce

I am happy to say that I finally made permanent decisions and started sewing my 6 inch blocks into their houses!! 🏠🏘️ 👍😁 I am LOVING them!! 😍
+++
I'm finding that this quilt is becoming very meaningful for me. Using all my 6 inch patterns for the centers brings back floods of memories and specific times in my life. I started designing patterns in 2011, and I can't believe everything that's happened in the past 8+ years!! This quilt might not mean much to anyone else, but to me each block carries it's own story as I remember where we lived, the stages my children were in, the friends I had and we're making in the quilting world, where I was in my own quilting journey. I wish I had all of my patterns in 6 inches so I could include them too! (Maybe I'll have to put them on the back! 😉😉 And yes, I could make them all 6 inches, but some would be AWAY too intense for me. 🤪)
