On the 7th Day of Christmas...

Today we have asked Allison Harris of Cluck Cluck Sew to be our guest. We have fallen in love with her patterns. You may have seen the quilt from market that featured a new line of fabric, Ten Little Things by Jenn Ski. We  thought one of Allison's patterns was a perfect fit to showcase this new line of fabrics that will be in stores March 2012.

My name is Allison Harris from the blog Cluck Cluck Sew, here to share with you the 7th day of Christmas! I blog sewing and quilting tidbits and tutorials, and design quilt patterns. My latest pattern looks very cute in Jenn's fun boy fabrics as shown below.

This quilt was quilted by Alicia Key. She quilted roads in the sashings and even added some mixmaster highways in the cornerstone sections. What little boy wouldn't play for hours driving his hot wheels along the pathways?

  17. I am part of group of five friends who like to "run away from home" to sew, knit, embroider, or whatever each winter. We set aside a weekend and rent a large suite at a hotel away from home, but well within driving distance. It is great fun. As an out growth of this group, those of us who sew meet about once every six weeks at a wonderful spot to keep up with life and sewing projects....and tutor the newby sewist with her new machine!

  21. I love to do swaps and round robins. Over the years I've done many and am always inspired by the creativity of others! One of my favorite friend memories involves a button party my friend hosted. She came into a huge amount of buttons from an old clothing manufacturer and filled every bowl in her home with them. The bowls covered every flat surface in her living and dining room. We selected buttons from each bowl and all went home with baggies full of buttons! So much fun!

  32. I was in a blockswaponce and unfortunately it as quite a disappointment. But this book would give some great ideas. I would love to try a few swaps with these patterns.
    Good memory: my collegue/friend and I , both having a fulltime job and a baby, went to a cute french restaurant (very fashionable in those years) to have dinner as a special treat. And it became a tradition: once a yr. we had a great night out and a lovely dinner. It was our special evening. We did it till she moved to another country.

  40. Organising something like a swap wouldn't happen for me without a few guidelines. I hope that book like this one may offer some help with the flow factor! One year my sister organised all the gals in my large extended family to get together over a table full of paper and beads and we made the prettiest cards, I was totally enamored with the creativity that flowed in that room. These are moments that I treasure, ah ha!!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  49. Since I began reading quilting blogs I've wanted to join a swap! They look so fun! (And yet, I'm worried I won't have time or will muck up the blocks I'm supposed to contribute... so I haven't.)
    I would love to connect with long distance friends by working on a project together!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  63. Oh how much fun this would be to get! As a rule, I only get to buy a magazine on quilting every few months - no books :( SO this would come in handy!
    A good memory .... I had a friend start a quilt - a simple border around a lovely patterned panel ... and she was to "quilt" only the panel ... well, a year later, and it sits, waiting for me to finish! Each time I go visit her, I'm put in a chair, handed the quilt and a cup of tea!! :) I'll miss not having that when it's done.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  73. 2011 was the year I decided to learn how to quilt... in large part because of the Cluck Cluck Sew blog. I made one of her pillows (based on a google search) and started looking at her site. Little did I know the enormity of the quilt blogging community.

    I've learned a lot about quilting from the blogging community and I think I could learn a lot from this book!

    ReplyDelete
  74. This book looks great, not been part of a fabric swap, but other crafting swaps and they are always fun. Thanks.

We have even started on a Friday evening and worked WAY into the night and then returned to finish on Saturday - order in pizza and party on!

    ReplyDelete
  76. I love a new book to inspire me. My BQFF (best quilty friend forever) also is a great inspiration and so awesome to shop with. Our tastes are so different that we never fight over the same fabrics and we help each other look at things from a different perspective.

  161. I have been getting more and more interested in doing a swap. So getting this in my stocking would be great. Good memory with friends-Quilters Night Out - laughing, sewing, and then half price appetizers at Applebees!

  164. I haven't participated in a quilt swap cos it's a little scary for a beginning quilter; this might be the help I need.

  167. I have done several swaps (completed items) but never a blocks swap. I have been thinking about hosting one. BUT I want something unique. Maybe this book will help.

  172. I have been participating in online swaps for a few years now, and have always enjoyed the experience. My first wasn't actually a swap, a group was making a quilt to raise funds for breast cancer research, and we all contributed blocks. The quilt was beautiful.

  174. I follow your blog . My friends do not sew or craft ; so .......... they shop and shop and shop . I'd like to say that was our most fun memorable moments together ; however I am NOT a shopper , unless it's a fabric store !! We have had good times at our Christmastime get togehers , and if I make something they are amazed ; so they appreciate my EASY handmade stuff I give ! I've never done a swap , so would love this book . I've done online quiltalongs , but no swaps ! ( I need to find a quilting / sewing group to get into ..... )
