Welcome to Day 4 of Quiltmaker’s
Back to School Party!
Every day is a little like Christmas because we reveal two more quilts–and what a great variety we’ve had from our fabric sponsors. In case you missed them, here are links to the previous quilts:
Day 1 FreeSpirit and Troy Riverwoods Collection
Day 2 RJR Fabrics and Timeless Treasures
Day 3 Quilting Treasures and Red Rooster Fabrics
—–
Today we’ll give you Part 4 of Frame by Frame and show you two more versions of the quilt.
Frame by Frame Part 4: Quilting and Binding
Layer and baste together the backing, batting and quilt top. Quilt the piecing in the ditch as shown below. Quilt a variety of meandering designs in the diagonal sections as shown. Bind the quilt.
Some of the BTS sewers who made this quilt did an overall quilting design instead, which makes for fewer starts and stops. Either option works!

Today’s featured fabric sponsors are Northcott and Robert Kaufman.
Northcott provided fabrics from Stonehenge Woodland.

Frame by Frame made in Northcott Stonehenge Woodland fabrics. This quilt was created by Karlene Larson from Broadway, North Carolina.
Tradition in all its finery! You have to love the wonderful textures in these fabrics. Makes me want to snuggle up on the couch with hot chocolate.

Robert Kaufman provided fabrics from the Mother’s Melodies collection by Darlene Zimmerman.
Here’s the finished quilt in Mother’s Melodies. It was made by Ruth Wasmuth from Lafayette, Indiana.
Frame by Frame in Mother's Melodies fabrics by Darlene Zimmerman for Robert Kaufman. This quilt was made by Ruth Wasmuth from Lafayette, Indiana.
What a lovely, baby soft look this is in the 1930s reproductions. Ruth’s Baptist Fan quilting over all of the piecing is wonderful!

I am having focus on my Scandinavian Christmas (desing Lynette Anderson) quilt right now. Hope to have it on my wall this Christmas, but have still a lot to do on it.
I’m working on a few projects. Today I basted my DWR quilt ready to start hand quilting.
I’m working on my ‘Groove’ quilt – a pattern by Emily Cier!
I have at least one project in every stage of production, from just the fabric and pattern in the bag to putting on the binding. Hopefully I get something finished soon.
I love that woodland fabric! ymm ymm. I just finished revamping my quilting room and I do have a spot for that fabric on my cutting table!
I am currently working on a giant star that will be for raffle next year for our fraternal organization. I am using Eleanor Burns book this is a very simple star if you cut, press and sew accurately. I love picking out the fabrics and seeing the end design. It is posted on my blog if you would like to take a look at it.
Thanks for the great giveway
I’m working on Christmas presents, can’t tell you want because my friends are sneaky and may read this!!! Thanks for the giveaway.
I’m working on a Granny Squares quilt for my mum. Thanks for the chance to win.
I’m working on a piecing a Christmas tree quilt, and an autumn table topper, preparing backing for a mystery quilt, binding another two, and trying out blocks for a couple more!
I am quilting my second Halloween quilt right now. They will both be given as charity quilts to my local hospital, where they will brighten up the stay for long-term ill children.
I am working on piecing a back for my daughter’s quilt (she wants to help, so we’ll be doing that this weekend), and getting it ready for hand quilting.
I am working on finishing 7 donation quilts that I promised myself I’d make for my quilting group. Thanks for the great pattern & the chance to win.
I’m currently trying to finish my Single Chain and Knot Blocks. I then an planning on starting the Christmas Star Block and assembling the quilt. I also have one quilt that I NEED TO piece the back for. Then I’m planning on starting some “Holiday ” table runners to send to a relative.
I am working on a House quilt pattern that I found in an older magazine. The pattern is easy, choosing the fabrics not so much. I find it more challenging to choose fabric to coordinate from my stash then using a collection with the choice already made for me
I am currently handsewing a queen-sized, scrappy hexagon-flower quilt (no sashing hexies included – just flowers). I am about 70 % done with piecing the top and I love it! I am also working on a scrappy (I see a theme here) postage stamp quilt which is going together much faster. I used the squares as leaders and enders for awhile, so I had a head start.
At the moment I’m working on NOTHING! Do you have any idea how frustrating that is? I have broken a bone in my foot and I have all this time off and can’t sit at my machine! I am hoping that in a few more days that will change but for now…dreaming
I’m just finishing a lap quilt, it only needs the binding. I’m starting a baby quilt which I love and I’m working on a charity quilt which needs quilting. I seem to be all over the place, but I’m not bored.
I just finished up a bed quilt that my sister requested and now I need to make a baby quilt and some lap quilts for Christmas gifts. But first I have a tailgate party and college football game to prepare for and attend this weekend.
I am working on a Christmas quilt for my little granddaughter. Would love to have it done for this Christmas but I keep changing it up!
I wish I could say I am working on a quilt project but I am working on my sewing room project. My machine is in for serious cleaning and small repair to the button panel. It is due back sometime this week or next. In the meantime, I am going through some recently received box of fabric and curtains to see what to salvage. Then going to take apart the room and give it a good cleaning so when my machine arrives home, I will be ready to get started on a new table runner for my mother-in-laws friend from her hometown.
Happy quilting to those who are quilting today. I miss my machine. 
I’m working on a quilt for my son’s Christmas gift. I’m really loving how its turning out. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love the Stonehenge Woodland fabrics!! I’m an outdoor lover always looking for Bald Eagles, Hawks, and Osprey with my grandson.
I am actually working on a Halloween quilt hoping to finish it by next weekend.
I am in the planning stage for a new vintage look quilt.

Diligently working on a queen-sized wedding quilt, a bridal shower quilt and a Minnesota Vikings’ colors quilt for my boss’ Christmas gift. Waiting for my long arm to be repaired so I can complete all three.
I’m working on a memory t-shirt quilt for a friend who lost her daughter earlier this year to cancer and have all my pieces cut for the baby quilt I’m making from this Frame by Frame pattern!
As always, multiple quilts in progress: binding a play quilt in bright, baby prints for a new grandson, working on a modern quilt of batik squares with lots of white, laying out the pieces for a christening quilt for the same grandson, and pondering what it will take in time and stash for quilted Christmas gifts!
I’m working on one of my designs, the Strippy Flowers Quilt. Have a super day!
I absolutely love the Stonehenge Woodland fabrics. I am working on a Valentine’s Day wall hanging – don’t laugh – our son’s family is living in Romania for his job for 2 years and in order to finish and ship by Feb 14 – I need to keep moving on it. I am also working on the Back to School block party’s quilt – seems like I always have more than one going!!
Oh my gosh! Those Northcott fabrics made an awesome looking quilt. I’m happy those were used because I would never choose those myself for a quilt but after seeing this quilt, I would definitely use those. I LOVE it and think it would make a great manly quilt.
And the 1930′s fabrics? GORGEOUS! Wow. Love that quilt a lot.
I’m currently doing the Quilting Gallery Beginner Quilt Along as well as making some other things for my 7 month old Granddaughter.
I really like this quilt in all it’s versions. I’m working on Bonnie Hunter’s Smith Mountain Morning in red/white/and blue and I’m really loving it!
I am working on a Thimbleberries BOM quilt that my sister started.
I am working on the blocks for the Frame by Frame quilt. Want to have it all sewn together today, hopefully. So I can get it quilted, then work on a baby quilt for my grandson who will be here in Nov. sometime….Then onto some more baby quilts for my 3 nieces that are all expecting- one in Oct., one in Nov., and one in Dec. Got a lot of fun work to do….or should I say a lot of play to do…..That is what my family calls it (Me too)
I’m working on a king star sampler quilt in different shades/values of blue with various yellow accents on white on white background with a saw tooth border. Only 3 more blocks to go & then I assemble the top….Yippeee! This has been a UFO for about 2 years & I’m finally going to get it done! I have a “bucket list” of all quilt projects to finish & new ones to start. It’s my plan, anyway. At this rate, I’ll have to live to be 300 yrs old to get them all done! Love this stash buster pattern….it’s on the “list”.
I’m quilting a paper pieced star quilt from Carol Doak’s book 50 Fabulous Pieced Stars it has been a challenge but turned out really pretty.Would love to win the fabric!!!
I always have several projects going at once. That way I’m sure one will call to me each day. Some I finish quickly like this back-to-school quilt. Some seem to take forever, like the wool and flannel quilt I’m working on. I’m quilting it square by square and will then join the pieces together via a method I learned on Craftsy.com.
I’m working on snowman challenge blocks for my little group, then I have a Mariner’s compass quilt to finish, as well as a Circles and Rays wall quilt. Oh, and this fun quilt is in queue!

I’ve been running a BOM of my own design for my quilt guild this year. I need to get to work writing up the instructions so we can start sewing our pieced borders ASAP! I also have a lap quilt that I just need to get the binding sewn onto, and I finally pulled out a mystery quilt that I had started last fall — 9 blocks down, and 26 to go. It’s been a mystery as to when I’d have time to finish it!
I am making a quilt using fabric from Autumn Breeze Sentimental Studios and the quilt pattern Salt Water Taffy. I really like the Northcott Quilt. Really beautiful colors and just in time for fall. Thank you for the wonderful show of colors and for giving us all a chance to win fabric.

I am working on Bali Fever, a paper pieced quilt. And then in my spare time, I’m making baby quilts–lots of baby quilts! I love to give them as gifts.
How many things am I allowed to list? LOL (Rather than calling them UFOs, I now refer to them as PhDs – Projects Half Done – rather fitting, don’t you think?)
I’m currently trying to machine quilt a Quilt of Valor mystery quilt, finish assembling a Scrappy Dresdens QAL from a few months ago; there’s also a Schnibbles quilt with the blocks all done, waiting to be assembled – and that’s just what I’m hoping to finish this week…….

I am working on a charity quilt, made with heart blocks.
Right now my project is for my friends new baby girl due in November. It is in the early stages, as in I don’t even have fabric picked out. But, a quilt store in town is going to become a bead only store. . .so their fabric goes on sale on Tuesday! I’ll be there!
It’s impossible to work on just one quilting project. Ideas are always buzzing about demanding to be implemented. At present I’m hand-stitching an English paper-pieced queen-sized quilt in predominantly Amish colors while looking for the perfect pattern for a “perfect” baby’s quilt. Maybe I’ll find it today.
Love the geometric simplicity of this pattern! My favourites of your samples were of fabrics by Stonehenge, Red Rooster, and Hoffman Batiks. I like the idea of trying it with movie novelty fabrics too!
I have just finished and presented a quilt to my parents, on the occasions of their 60th wedding anniversary and Mom’s 80th Birthday. I used a block and rail fence pattern on point, with luscious fabrics from Moda’s Three Sisters line, ‘Luna Notte’.
I am a newish quilter- and like to teach myself new blocks- so I have started a quilt for my guest bedroom, in greens and purple, with golden and plummy accents. The centre square is ‘on point’, and I am making it up as I go along!
I love your blog and facebook postings- and appreciate the opportunity to win some fabric to add to my stash!
A baby quilt for a new great grandson is at the head of the lis,t of 3 quilts waiting for free motion quilting.

“PhDs” perfect! I have a bunch of tops I need to quilt but currently not working on anything quilt-wise. Recently finished a “stash scrap” top and will soon be starting on a scottie dog themed quilt for a friend. Also plan to start a patriotic quilt with eagles and flags, just waiting on the fabric to arrive. Doing some knitting to tide me over until I get the fabrics.
I’ve three in-progress quilts, I’m afraid… a baby boy quilt for a shower on the 22nd, a Christmas tree skirt, and a lap quilt for me (which is also for practice, as I’m still a newbie).

One week from today I can get back to my BOM [Craftsy] piecing for multiple quilts… the first of which will go to my dd who just moved into her own place and both needs and wants a quilt, so that one gets rush priority. I wasn’t too excited about the Frame by Frame design until I saw the Stonehenge Woodland one… I love the Stonehenge fabric line and those colors really work for me.

My current project is kids’ placemats for a December bazaar at a local historical museum. I’m having fun working on small things for a change. Bigger quilts may be part of what I will do, too, but for now, I’m churning out the little guys!
I am finishing a project I purchased in 2000. I just have the outer row of blocks left but I haven’t been able to work on it since June 8th when I had hand surgery. I can’t cut with scissors yet but I am hoping to try sewing this coming weekend.
I am finishing up a check flannel lap quilt for my son.
Oh I love the Mothers melodies fabrics. I’m trying to forget problems while working on aprons, potholders etc for the church fair.
I absolutely love the northcott version is anyone doing animal prints for this?
My current quilting project is one that is out-of-the-box for me – a civil-war-ish style queen sized quilt. Lots of HST to make and bias edges.
I really like this back-to-school quilt design. Thanks to the sponsors for the giveaway too.
I am working on a Queen Size ‘Maple Leaf Rag’. I copied a diagram and colored it. I selected the base fabrics, cut 1/2″ squares and pasted them in order on a sheet of waste paper. I chose to applique the triangles (fusible) onto the base fabrics rather than a lot of cutting and sewing. I used a manila folder to make a guide for proper placement of the triangles. Easy Peasy!
Thanks for asking.
I’m working on a quilt for my grandson. My own design starting with fussy cut comic book characters. I’m framing them in solids. Then I’ll use a print to tie it all together. He is one excited boy!
I’m currently sewing on the Quiltmaker’s Garden quilt (though I’m a few issues behind) and a Beach Cottages quilt, and a Laurel Burch Mermaid quilt await machine quilting. Those are my current projects, I work on whichever one draws me at the moment.

It’s been so long since I have been in my sewing room that I’ve almost forgotten my current project. I’m working on a mystery quilt designed by two quilting buddies. Two more steps and we see the quilt top we’ve been working on since April.
I’m working on a Full size Quilt for my niece. The name is Pineapple , it has taken me quite awhile. I made my neighbor one [ another Full size] and made so many extra squares that all I needed was another 50 -6″ squares to finish my niece’s quilt. All I have left to do Is quilt a little spot and bind it. Keep smileing right? Alot of small pieces.
