The Spark, The Brick and The Giveaway

Brick Quilt

Poppy QuiltGood Morning, Quilters!

Does it sound like we’re doing another Mystery Quilt-with the cryptic title for today’s post?

Let me explain…One of my New Year’s Resolutions is to review my extensive photo collection and purge.  As I was working away at my computer, I came across this photo of The Poppy Quilt on my garden wall….The Spark

Next thing I knew, I was sitting at my sewing machine…(So much for NY Resolutions!)

Brick QuiltHowever, one of my other resolutions is to try new threads.

I used Superior’s King Tut (extra long-staple) cotton to create The Bricks in this quilt.  I love how the variegated thread adds even more texture to The Bricks.

Next, I sent off a photo and a note to Superior Threads...

  • I want to finish my UFO’s!

    I have 2 resolutions for 2015: to improve my fmq (thus my following you) and tackling my ufo’s. I would love to win King Tut thread.

  • sillyandrea

    I would love to try these threads! All your posts about threads have me thinking I really don’t pay attention as much as I should.

  • How fun! I love your poppy on the brick wall. For 2015, I am working on improving my FAQ skills. By 2016, I hope to be able to do some heirloom type quilting on a special top I made last year.

  • Juanita Culler

    I like your way of thinking, how cleaning up “anything’ leads you back to the sewing machine.
    This display of a 3D effect by using King Tut thread is a winner. There are so many possibly outcomes, it is only limited by how many spools of thread are available.

  • My sewing resolution is to keep trying different free motion designs and templates on my midarm. PS I do love King Tut threads

  • oh ver nice …love the poppy quilt! for 2016 I would like to be able to say I am much improved with my machine quilting.

  • I love this Poppy. My NY resolution is to make more quilts using Zentangle to add to my trunk show.

  • cynthia

    I’m going to try new sewing & quilting techniques, and finish them!

  • Hazel Spindler

    LOVE Superior threads and I am using the King Tut line to quilt my little art pieces. Would love to enter in this giveaway. Thanks.
