HANDMADE : My Quilt Story #7

hi there, how are you? it is february already and it's mean there will be new quilt blocks 💓💞

meanwhile, i will join southbay bella challenges. and it's about CURVE. so, this is the time to use my Splendid Sampler Book.

one of reasons i joined this challenges is because i feel guilty to this book.

i bought it but never use it, so i think this time is the right time..hhahaha..

i choose this block  

and yes!! my curve is disaster, i need my seam reaper. but thanks God, after mend and press, i can see the light.

my lemonade block

closed up. can you see the not smooth curve i made?  

karena block yang pertama kurang terlihat lemon nya, jadi saya pilih model yang ini

untuk bulan february, challenge nya beda lagi. nama challenge ini adalah

SEW FOR FIFTEEN

THE CHALLENGE:

Sew For Fifteen has two primary objectives. I challenge you to:

1. Find 15 minutes to work on a quilting project of your choice (related to each monthly theme) at least once a month. Sometimes we put things off because we don’t have the time to really sit down and get into it. I don’t know about you, but looking back on 2018, I would have finished a lot of projects if I’d found 15 minutes here and there to work on them.
2. Learn new quilting techniques that you’ve been wanting to try. Each month will have a theme.
3.  In 2019, we will try:
4. • February: EPP
   • March: Quilting (By machine or by hand)
   • April: FMQ (get those practice quilt sandwiches ready!)
   • May: FPP
   • June: WIPs
   • July: Quilt Design
   • August: Applique (of all kinds)
   • September: Binding/Facing
   • October: Quilter’s Choice: Pattern
   • November: Quilter’s Choice: Technique (Improv, fabric weaving, Y seams, etc)
   • December: Year In Review and Planning Ahead

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:

Choose a Project: You may work on any quilting project you choose that you’d like to chip away at 15 minutes at a time (or longer if you’re lucky enough to find the time).  It does not need to be related to the monthly theme, but only entries that relate to the monthly theme will count toward winning prizes.

Take a Photo and Share it: Sew For Fifteen will take place completely on Instagram. You do not need to officially sign up, but you will need to have a public Instagram account.  You will enter by posting a picture of what you did during your 15 minutes of project work using the hashtag #sbbsewfor15.  Whether you pulled fabrics, cut some blocks, or got started on your sewing, share a photo of your progress and that’s an entry.  You may enter as many times as you would like throughout the month.

Enjoy the resources: Throughout the month, I will share resources that will support you in your effort to learn new quilty things. I will post links to blogs and videos shared by experts on that month’s theme.  I will also do some Instagram live videos with our sponsors. And of course, I will post throughout the month to say hi and check in on your progress. If you find any good tips or tricks, please share them!  We’re all here to learn from each other.
