Design Wall Monday - December 1, 2025

Good Morning Quilters!

Here is the view out my bedroom windows as I got up yesterday morning.  A blanket of snow on every branch and twig.  Glorious!!



I got my quilting mojo back while at retreat recently, and also did something that astounded me.  I bought a quilt kit from the sale table!  I have been resolutely working on finishing UFOs for the past year, but for some unexplained reason, I bought and have started a new project.  It is an entire quilt made up of hourglass blocks, and is different than my usual style of quilts.  I sometimes can’t explain my actions, but there it is…….I have started a new quilt.

Here is the pattern picture:


The quilt is named “In the Round” and is by Laura Berlinger.  Here are the first three sets of blocks, out of fourteen different sets:


I quite like the simplicity and calmness of this project.  Quite different than the Jane Stickle quilt triangles I’ve been working on.  But whatever the reason for my diversion to something new to me, I am enjoying quilting again.

What are you working on this week?  With this being the start of the busiest month of the year, and the recent snowstorms (8 inches here) quilting will be hard to fit into our busy lives.  But we will find some time……. I know we will.

So good to read that your mojo returned! The new design reminds me of the softness of the snowfall. (But glorious? 9" here and it took two neighbors to clear my driveway!)

Sometimes we just want to make something different than our 'normal' quilts. Enjoy making the HST's!

That's a pretty quilt. It should be engaging until you are sick of making the quarter square triangles. There is no reason to "justify" why you bought it. Just enjoy working on it.
