sewing notion blocks......

18 years ago

Hi Everyone,

I thought that it would be fun to do a quilt with blocks made of different sewing notions - machine, thread, etc. etc.....

Does anyone have any great site addresses where I can pull up some ideas, patterns....

Would appreciate any help I could get....

I'm also interested in finding patterns that have to do with a kitchen them....pots, pies, etc.....

Thanks and have a great day everyone,

Bill

I have a small collection of "notion" motif fabrics. I have often thought about a simple 9 patch and snowball block quilt with the red accent pieces in the snowball block's corners. Just a thought! I'd better get back to actually quilting.

Good Luck with whatever you decide!

I have a great pattern called " Stitcher Notes and Totes" put out by Qzark Crafts. It has a sewing machine, tape measure, seam ripper, needle, button card, tomato pin cushion, thread, rotary cutter, scissors and marking pen. The pattern is designed for making a caddy,message board or a tote bag. I have had it for a while. The address on it is Ozark Craft;POB 805, Branson, MO 65615
I would let you have it but I have plans for it myself.

I have some patterns for old time sewing machines. Paper pieced and applique. One is a treadle machine! I will send them to you with your sunflower birthday block. Do you want it early? I am very excited about it. The problem with making the blocks early, is waiting to send them. I have the same problem with other gifts.

Great ideas....wonderful blocks....I have a desire to come up with some type of quilted table cover made with different blocks with kitchen themes......
I also remember years ago when growing up, it was popular back home to have a daybed in a kitchen corner.....I think when I am able to retire - or even more, I would like a setee or sofa in a kitchen corner....with a nice quilt...a kitchen them would be fabulous......
One mustn't stop dreaming or being creative...
Thanks everyone for your feedback/input.
