Ellen Harris from Huntsville, AL sent me this photo of her finished Aunt Millie’s Garden. She saw a post on Pinterest that inspired the aqua fabric for the background. Oange and blue are complementary colors and together they make a great foundation of color to support the other colors in the quilt.
The back has a hand embroidery piece appliqued on that says: “May I a small house and a large garden have.”
Well done, Ellen! And thank you for sharing your lovely quilt with us!
Jimi/TheGranChris is this week’s winner and will receive a pack of Black Gold Applique Needles in assorted sizes and a package of Thimble-It Finger Protectors. These needles are extra-sharp which does help you get a very pretty stitch. And the Thimble-It is handy to have in case your fingertips get sore or to help you grab the needle.
I’ll be back with another Giveaway next Wednesday. Until then you can shop for all sorts of sewing notions, books, and other fun stuff at pieceocake.com!
My online Bullseye class covers foundation paper piecing and curved piecing, specifically set-in circles, as you sew a 20″ x 20″ block. This block looks complicated but it is easier than it looks—especially when I walk you through each step!
The online class is available to take NOW. You get to work in your own space, with all of your fabric and supplies nearby. It’s the best way to take a class! There is a discussion option in each lesson so that you can email questions to me and I will answer in a timely fashion. The ebook is included in the class.
I am happy to offer the combination of my online Bullseye class together with a 6-hour real-time meeting on Zoom! We get to be together and you don’t have to pack up your sewing machine and supplies and work in a classroom. You are still in your own space, working without distractions.
The 6-hour Live Class begins at 12noon EST, 11:00 CST, 9:00 PST.
We will begin class together on Zoom with a visit and I will share important information to help you enjoy a great day of sewing. You will watch the video lessons and sew at your own pace outside of the Zoom meeting. We will come back together on Zoom at prearranged times during class to visit, ask questions, and share ideas.
Additionally, you can call or text me at any time during class between Zoom meetings and I will be there to answer your questions in real time.
And lastly, there’s one more thing about taking the Live class… it keeps you from procrastinating. Please do join me on November 21 and lets make a Bullseye!

Margery Tadder in Colorado Springs sent me this picture of her just finished Magical Unicorn quilt. It’s perfect! Margery says that she is delighted with it and I can see why. I really like the way that sky fabric fills the background, and the grass! Both fabrics set the stage for the whole quilt.
Margery wrote: “My long arm quilter was so enamored she took a picture and sent it to a friend who promptly bought the pattern! But who could NOT love everything Designed by Becky! The quilt will be a Christmas present for a special 4 yr old girl and know she will be thrilled especially since unicorns are her “thing” right now.”
There will be squeals of delight on Christmas morning :-). Well done, Margery!
