JOL Fat Quarter Bundle Wenche Wolff Hatling for Moda Fabrics
I started a new Bricks Quilt last night using the JOL Fat Quarter Bundle.
The Bundle came with 30 Fat Quarters and I had to decide if I was going to use the Chocolate color or the Gray … Gray is really in right now … but brown/chocolate really matches my house better. Plus I can always make another one using the grays.
For this quilt I’m going to make it larger … instead of 7 Fat Quarters I’m using 9. Making it 9 rows across and 6 rows down. My fear is … will this quilt be too wide? Where as the other one is a tad long. I will decide once I put it on my Design Wall. If it doesn’t look right I can always leave off the 9th row.
Each rectangle measures 5 x 10 and next up is I need to cut 45 White Jelly Roll Rectangles that measure 2-1/2 x 5.
Halloween Brick Quilt
I’m still working on filming the Halloween Bricks Quilt Tutorial … but I can only work on it during the day …. because of lighting. I hope to film some today but currently there are two lawn mowers going outside. Some days I feel like they are out to get me!! It’s never quiet around here (and I do mean never!!!). I could film it anyway but the Negative Nellies are stuck in my head with all the criticism they dish out! This time of year it gets really bad and this week alone I’ve deleted 5 rude comments (over on Chic n Scratch). I would really like to say something back to them …but two wrongs do not make a right!
I’m going to film one more paper crafting video today and then I’ll work on the Halloween Quilt. Wish me luck!

So right Angie, take the high road and leave the nasties in the trash can. Wish people would learn to be nice to each other, what a wonderful world we would have then!! 🙂 🙂

Hi Angie,
The fabric choice is very pretty. The white is really going to make it pop. Can’t wait to see it.
Have a good evening.
Marge Webster says
The fabric is adorable.

I am astounded that anyone feels the need to say anything negative. I just don’t get it! I am sorry you have to read that, Angie, but as you said yourself, don’t reply. If someone does not like what they saw, just don’t watch, right? I am not a quilter, though your videos make me want to be! I enjoy them! The fabric you chose looks a bit like Candy Cane Lane paper. 🙂 Can’t wait to see what you do!

Hi Angie –
I also am astonished that you would get negative comments – I love both your quilting videos and your paper crafting projects! It is too bad that some people need to put others down to make themselves feel better – there are many of us out here who truly appreciate what you do – keep up the good work!
Sherry says
Angie, some people have to be negative because they know nothing else. The way I figure it is like Thumper, ”
If you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothing at all! ” don’t take it personal, I think you’re great! God Bless
