More Insanity

Not a lot of stitching has got done this week, but a LOT of printing has been! I can’t even begin to imagine making this quilt without Inklingo — no basting, no whip stitching, just lovely quick running stitching. Makes it all so quick and so incredibly accurate!

All these charms have been printed with the .50″ hexagons and cut, ready to turn into a hexagon diamond.


These are the charms I have left to print, which will be done this weekend. Then all I need to print are a bunch of white hexagons and another shape as I’m thinking of amending the pattern a bit. And then it’s just all lovely hand piecing till they’re done! 🙂

One part of the pattern I definitely won’t change is the fact it needs some little GFG flowers so I started making a couple of those this week too. I’m using YLI Heirloom thread and I absolutely love how it just sinks into the seams. Perfect thread for these little pieces.



While I may be working with colours that look like spring, Smudge is definitely into fall mode curled up in one of the cat beds.

  1. Cathi,I’m so envious! I’m in the middle of an insanity quilt too, but handstitching every piece onto paper… It’s taking forever, and is only my third quilt so I’m slow anyway! I still don’t completely understand how you are using the printer. Is there any possibility you could show some photos of the fabric being prepared for printing?Thanks for the lovely blog,Fran
