Delilah Block of the Month – Month 4 – Fairhaven

Delilah BOM Tips, Quilts - Sep. 26, 2018 - Jessica OklaRoots

So this block took... a while. 

Partly because I have been in a cross country move.  But mostly because.... don't make me say it....

Ok.... I'll say it....

CURVES.

Those @$#^@$&#* curves.

Delilah Block of the Month – Month 2 – Bells Beach Block

Delilah BOM Tips - Jun. 03, 2018 - Jessica OklaRoots

Welcome back!  This month we explore curves.... again.  If you have been following me on Instagram (@oklaroots) you may have noticed that I am not a big fan of the curves.  

Well, let me clarify:  I love the look of curves... I just don't like making them.

Delilah Block of the Month – Month 1 – Rising Sun Block

Delilah BOM Tips - Apr. 10, 2018 - Jessica OklaRoots

Anyone else listen to "Delilah" on the radio?  You know the intro.... "Deliiiiilaaaaaaaahhh"? Well, I sing that EVERY TIME I am working on one of these blocks... and I kind of love it. (So does my husband, he just doesn't want to admit it)

If you don't know, the Delilah star of this blog post is a recent quilt pattern by Jen Kingwell.  I have been holding on to this block of the month pattern since it started... a year ago.  I participated with Amitie quilt shop, receiving a block pattern, acrylic templates and a selection of fabrics each month.  At this point in time (April 2018) the block of the month program is over and the pattern is not available to purchase.  I will update this once that changes. UPDATE: Pattern available here!

I’ve seen this great hack ALL over the place onlin I’ve seen this great hack ALL over the place online. And as a bag charm lover, I fully recommend adding small d-rings to bags. Just be sure to add it to the right place to avoid a future rip ❤️.

We’ll try to do a live on YouTube later this week 🤞

We loved visiting these fabric stores while on our We loved visiting these fabric stores while on our summer UK trip!

Started at Misan (@misanretail ) in London, which had some of the most gorgeous apparel fabric! They had all things pretty, sparkly and unique. They also had a great selection of tweeds and leathers (which I stocked up on).

Next we visited Borovick Fabrics (@borovickfabricslondon ) and snagged even more material! Make sure to explore the entire space for some really stunning and original fabrics. 

Of course we had to stop by MacCulloch and Wallis (@maccullochw ) and check out all the haberdashery! They had plenty of material and sewing tools, but also tons of yarn and other craft supplies. Mila did quite a bit of shopping here.

Then we ventured to Edinburgh Castle (@edinburghcastle ) and actually found a large assortment of tweed materials in a gift shop! I’m still kicking myself for not purchasing anything. 

We wrapped up our fabric shop tour at Edinburgh Fabrics (@edinburghfabrics ) which not only offered all the materials you would come to expect, but they also had a huge selection of tweed AND Liberty of London lawns! The dream!!

Can’t wait to go back and find even more stores!

Block 2 is done! Love that we’re starting to work Block 2 is done! Love that we’re starting to work on some diagonal cuts now.

Those triangle bits used to be such a struggle for me. Knowing how to line it up so it completely covers the area can be challenging. My method is to draw the diagonal line on the fabric, just as I want the stitches to be in the end. Then flip it upside down and line it up with the stitch line on the paper. And bam! Perfect fit with less waste 💪❤️.

I’m not here to tell you what you need and don’t n I’m not here to tell you what you need and don’t need in life. But as a bag maker, I would say the AnnaBelle Shoulder Bag pattern from @siahswagbags is a Bag Making 101 essential. The shape is gorgeous, you can have lots of fun with modifications, and the look of this bag can be SO different depending on the material. The structure is fantastic (LOVE the foam sandwich method) and overall it’s a fun way to spend time sewing. 10/10 no notes!

Enjoy!
This week we’re busting scraps in the CUTEST way! This week we’re busting scraps in the CUTEST way!

The Ellie Card Case from @missfrecklesdesign is a beautiful accessory that has four card slots and a center pocket. This is a great project for quilt cotton! And there is NO HARDWARE 🙏

Check out Miss Freckles on Instagram to see her reel walking you through the process, or go visit the OklaRoots YouTube Channel for a yappy tutorial. 

Have a great week friends ❤️
