Village Quilt Done!

Village Quilt by Miss Rosie’s Quilt Co. - This Quilt is so bright and colorful!I am so happy to say that my Village Quilt by Miss Rosie’s Quilt Co. is finally finished:). Yea yea! Happy dance!!

It is hard to believe that this simple little quilt has taken me over a year to finish. Really?!  It just seemed like there was always some other project that was more important. And then when I did start working on it, there would be a problem and I would have to put it back in the box to clear my head a bit.

That is what happened the last time I blogged about this quilt.  I had pieced everything together and the top was 2 1/2” smaller than the bottom.  I’m glad I wrote myself a note because this  time, when I took it out, I knew right where to put my efforts.

It really wasn’t hard to fix when my head was clear and I wasn’t frustrated.  I just used my handy seam ripper and unsewed a bit.  It was fine.

Then it was to the quilting machine.  I thought these cute butterflies were the perfect pattern to be flying around my village:)



Isn’t it pretty?

I really do enjoy this quilt.  What am I going to do with it? I don’t know yet. I will probably “put it in the pot” like my friend Jean says:). I just like to look at it.  It is eye candy to me❤️

Quilting candy is the best kind of candy because the SWEETNESS is all calorie free!

  1. Just absolutely gorgeous! I would love to do a wall hanging version of this quilt. I would like to ask, how did you fix your 2 1/2″ difference in the quilt. I have those things happen to me, as well.

    1. Hi Sheryll! This quilt would make an excellent wall hanging:). To fix the issue, I didn’t even look at the pattern. I addressed the problem and took out some of the white spaces between the houses to make the row measure the same as the top. I really don’t know what I did to get the bottom three rows off so badly, but it didn’t really matter in the end. The houses were not supposed to line up perfectly anyway. So taking a bit of spacing here and there out made absolutely no difference at all. Thank you so much for your comment and question! Let me know if you make the quilt. I would love to hear about it:)😊❤️❤️

    1. I’m so glad you like it! This was a really fun quilt to make, except I had a bit of difficulty getting the rows to all be the same size. It must have been the pattern, it couldn’t be me! Lol😊❤️

  4. Hi! I just love your quilt–it’s cute and country. I am also a quilter in my spare time. I by a have a small seamstress business and was wondering what takes me so long on some projects. Your description about sewing a project, stopping, clearing your mind and refocusing to solve problems., hit the nail on the head for me. Now I know what takes me so long, when I am sewing to measurements
    and not a pattern. Thanks for helping me remember that sewing is an art and not just using a sewing machine. You really got me refocused and encouraged. Blessings to you.

  5. Hi Tracy! I was just playing around on Pinterest . . . and here I am. This is gorgeous! I’m glad that little difference between the two parts didn’t derail you any longer. I wonder if you are still enjoying this quilt? It has inspired me to start my own . . . ~smile~ Roseanne
