Are you itching to wrap up this sew along? Here we go with Block 24/25 ...
Grandma's Kitchen held her purse! Did ALL grandma's have a big purse or was that just mine?
I actually have a quilt in progress that I got stalled on manyyyyyyyyyy years ago with my Na-Na's purse on it. I tell you about her purse in the pattern. I got that quilt out when I started this project and thought about how I want to finish it. Since I started it so long ago.. I thought maybe I wouldn't like it anymore, but I was wrong. Being that it's such a wonderful memory, the quilt in progress still holds my heart enough that I will finish it..
But not today
All my blocks!
The design wall is not very wide, it's tall, but not wide. The bottom row needs pieced and that will be the project I do over the next few days.
Quilt Your Own Grandma's Kitchen Details
- I'm sewing 2 rows together, like above, so I can quilt them easily with my walking foot.
- I be referencing my Teach me to Machine Quilt book (Spotted on SALE)
- BONUS - The rows will be attached to each other using a 'Quilt as You Go, QAYG' method that I'll show you
- DATE TO START - Not decided that yet. If you are ready to baste your rows, Use my book and go ahead and do it. You can quilt the rows too if you want to work on it now, you don't need to wait for me.
Someone asked me about borders. Borders are just long thin rows. If you decided to add borders, you'll quilt them, then add to the quilt the same way you'll attach rows together.

Assembly Tips
- Note the sewing order of the Basket, I have a page where I show you how I put it together.
- Keep your basket feet going the right way
- Keep your basket handle units going the right direction so you can avoid a date night with 'Jack' (Jack the ripper.. wink!)
** NOTE THE SCHEDULE CHANGE ** at our table of blocks. I added the release dates as they are adjusted to fit my travel schedule.
I also give you the date I'll announce what the next sewalong Dec 16!

I'm amazed at how this Sweet & Lovely line looks in a quilt that feels like winter, but not winter! Is that what adding a sled does to a photo? Now I need a vintage sled & old skates to decorate with!
