Miscellany

There are 2 more finished Postcard Quilts to show off! First up is one from mimi'sdarlins who says, "Each of my postcards represents a vacation or special event, so for me this has become a memory quilt." How cool is that?

 And from Katrin/makatrin . . .
The Postcard Quilt Along
Isn't that sweet? Did you notice the stamp detailing on some of her postcards?

Very fun. There's more progress happening in The Postcard Quilt Along flickr group. Here's the block tutorial if you feel like joining us!

 Random: My original Postcard Quilt was shared along with a bunch of other terrific projects over on Sew Thankful Sunday by The Crafty Quilter. Fun to see it out and about.

 And the headliner over on Instagram - I hit 1700 followers! wow. I mean wow.
Photo: 1700 followers on Instagram is definitely worth celebrating! A big thanks to Pink Chalk Fabrics for sponsoring a giveaway to mark the occasion . . . just follow aquilterstable and comment on the "1700!!" post for a chance to win!

Speaking of Pink Chalk, did you see it's "Where I Sew" month? In a nutshell, "During July we’ll be taking a virtual tour and sharing a peek at the sewing spaces of some of our favorite designers and sewing enthusiasts. Real spaces where real people sew." There's quite the list of sewists showing off their studios, plus you and I can link up ours! I'm planning on sharing mine one day soon. And I'd sure enjoy seeing yours too!

    Both of those postcard quilts are so pretty! Congrats on 1700 followers, I don't know how I missed that! And no, I won't be sharing my sewing space, it is a sad corner in our kitchen. LOL
