  • LaRueSews-Quilts--Major Project Finished!

    Some of you may remember that I have been working on a complicated project. I called it my "1,000 year project" when I began in 2003. Well, I am 993.5 years ahead of schedule. I finished it after having surgery on my hand in March. Here it is: Indigo Sunset. This time I am posting the last...

  • LaRueSews-Quilts--Quilter, Quilter, Who Are You?

    My quilt guild, called Memory Makers Guild was just a little over the top today. The guild is a small group, but what it lacks in numbers, it makes up for in talent. I’ve known most of these ladies for at least a year, and some of them, as much as three years. We have grown closer as time has gone...

  • LaRueSews-Quilts, Spuds in a Bag

    It’s Chilly here in Alabama today. That is to say, rainy 70 degrees feels cold compared with 90+ degrees. This has been a frustrating day. I have a little project that I wanted to talk about this time. However, I’ve lost the special ruler I need for the project. Let me rephrase that . . ...

The Challenge was to make a quilt that fit all the requirement sets out in the rules of the challenge. The challenge was issued at the first...

  • LaRueSews-Quilts-Hand quilting, It’s Personal!

    If you have worked along with me, you will soon need to decide if you will quilt by hand or by machine. I have a friend who began quilting a little more than a year ago. As we talked, one day, I asked how she planned to do her quilting. She quickly said, “by machine.” That’s OK. I never...

  • LaRueSews-Quilting-Quarter Inches to Heirlooms.

    To begin this time, I want to relate a very “telling” experience. This experience told me that you very well can become a really good quilter if only you practice, practice, practice. My husband and I went to my daughter’s house last weekend to attend our grand daughter’s band...

  • LaRueSew-Quilting-Design, You Can Do It!

    Sometimes we quilters and ME's want to do what we want to do. We buy books with patterns made by somebody whose tastes are similar to ours, but we want to do it our way. How can I arrange my favorite quilt blocks in a new and different way without taking hours with graph paper, a ruler and colored...
