Time for Another Quilt-Along?

Of course it is!  This one hosted by AccuQuilt and APS - it just started so there's plenty of time to join in ALL the quilty FUN ;-)

I will be swapping out the 'default' colors to Patriotic and creating a Quilt of Honor to be Awarded to a Veteran later this year.  Will probly be adding a few more borders to 'bring it to size' but, the interior is a wonderful design and pefect for just such a quilt.

Was able to cut out ALL the pieces in a little over an hour - despite NOT cutting enough the first time and/or mis-counting...Whew!

Pieces ALL cut and Ready to Sew!

I like to keep my projects organized and ready to go to the sewing machine - these baskets also 'stack' so... win/WIN!

They also fit into a rolling cart that I keep next to my cutting station - keeps things handy and organized.

Cutting Cart

I must say - there are PLENTY of ways to cut fabric BUT...AccuQuilt makes it Fast & FUN!

The 10" Cube is being used to cut out most of this quilt:

Cutting 'chunks' of fabric to feed into the GO! cutter:

The Quilter's Select/QS rulers are my very fav -
a little more expensive but so worth it - NO Slipping & Sliding around
while cutting w/exclusive NON-slip see-thru coating!

Using the GO! Big for this operation - performed FLAWLESSLY
(An early Christmas present last year w/Saved up points ON SALE during Black Friday - what a WONDERFUL Gift!
Especially since I'd recently broken my right elbow and was having difficulty cranking my hand-turned cutter...the GO! BIG was a lifesaver for my quilting adventures)

Now that ALL the pieces are cut & organized, Time to Sew Mama, SEW!

Chain piecing these pieces together is a Breeze due to the accuracy of the cuts!

I NO longer avoid piecing more challenging quilts w/AccuQuilt cutting system - ALL the pieces are cut uniformly and accurately and fit together like a glove...NO worries getting a perfectly pieced quilt...EVERY time!

Please NOTE:  I am NOT an AccuQuilt paid Advocate and/or Affiliate - I probly should be but, currently just a very happy quilter who LOVES speed & accuracy while having FUN quilting ;-)

Loving how these units are turning out:

Square-in-a-square units sewing together Perfectly!

Time for MORE Sewing!

Later,
