Fresh Fabric Treats by the Moda Bake Shop Designers is the source of my latest quilting project! I'm making the Summer Sorbet Quilt pattern in Thimbleberries fabrics. I've named it "Stars Light My Path". This quilt is pictured on the front of the book. I'm enjoying the way the wonky stars go together - nice and easy peasy with no exact matching or rocket science required. I'm using my huge stack of 4-1/2" squares rather than the 5" squares the pattern calls for, without any problems. Saves cutting time! Here's a picture of them as I squared them up.
This is what I use for winding bobbins. The Better Bobbin Winder saves wear and tear on my old Bernina 830. The reason I chose this winder over others of lesser price is the foldable tall stand that holds thread coming from spools that must be pulled from the top - as the thread above from Connecting Threads is. Another reason I purchased a winder is my 1896 long-arm Singer quilting machine also uses a lot of thread, and I can easily make numerous bobbins without unthreading my Bernina 830.
