Toy Sewing Machine quilt

 I told you a couple of weeks ago that I was working on Lori Holt's "toy sewing machine" quilt.  I thought there were only 25 blocks, but there are 30! I'm currently sewing the extra 5 and have 3 more to go.

There will be scrappy background sashing between the rows, with cornerstones between them, and a border. 

I'm so excited to finish up this quilt, I think it's really cute!

Here's a little tease of my Strawberry Jam quilt that I'll be able to show you soon! 🍓🍓🍓

Thanks for following me, see you next week!

Toy Sewing Machine quilt

At our Farm Girl quilt group, we love Lori Holt ❤️

I found the cutest little block that I want to make a quilt out of, inside this fantabulous book!


I need to make 25 blocks, so I auditioned fabrics for the blocks, five or six at a time.


The cutest toy sewing machine!!!  They are 9" each and are so much fun to make.  They are fast to cut out and fast to sew, and very scrappy and rewarding to make!


Each one is just as cute as the other!


One of my favorite parts of making a quilt is choosing the colors.


I've made all of these blocks at our quilt group, which usually meets twice a month.


The color possibilities and combinations are endless....


I only have another meeting's worth to make and then I'll start assembling them together, with scrappy background sashing.

I hope this toy sewing machine will appeal to a young girl because it looks like I'm amassing more quilts for a grandchildren giveaway.

Some of them I'll have a very difficult time giving away though. 🥲

Here's a link to Lori's YouTube channel where she shares a tutorial of this 9" toy sewing machine block.

Thanks for following and I'll see you next week :)
