Mystery Quilt Block Thursday 08/22/24. Signature Quilt Block

Julie Heitz 2024-08-24 | Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul...Emily Dickinson. The Signature Quilt block offers a space for someone to write their names or leave a message to the recipient. It was my inspiration for this card and originally, I was going to stamp Hope in the center. Instead, I used the center to showcase a die cut circle label and embellished it with a bird.

Mystery Quilt Block Thursday, Blazing Arrows Barn Quilts 07/25/24

Julie Heitz 2024-07-28 | The inspiration for the colors I chose, comes from a 6 x 6 sheet of Thoughtful Journey DSP. Choose 2 contrasting colors. If choosing colors is a challenge, go with a monochromatic scheme. Here I have chosen a Pretty Peacock solid and a Lost Lagoon solid (both B sides from the DSP). Look to pair a medium/dark shade with a light shade.
Designate one color “A” and the other “B”.
From “A” cut:
(2) 1/2” x 4” strips *cut one of these strips slightly wider than a 1/2”.
(2) 1” squares
(1) 11/16” square (one line behind 3/4”).
************
From “B” cut:
(1) 1” x 4” strip
(3) 1” squares
From cardstock:
Cut a scrap of cardstock 2” x 4”. It will be a foundation and be totally covered. I had a scrap of Pretty Peacock so I coordinated it with the Pretty Peacock DSP.
If you have a piece of grid paper, it helps with placement of the triangles (oops! a clue lol).
Choosing a color cardstock base and matted layers can be chosen once the blocks (oops! another clue) have been
completed.

Mystery Quilt Card 04/04/24. Double Pinwheel Quilt Card.

Julie Heitz 2024-04-05 | I actually used this quilt block in a baby quilt I made for our grandson 7 years ago and it's the inspiration for today's Mystery Quilt Card. I love that quilt patterns can easily be adapted for cardmaking, and I love teaching how to do it!

Joy of Christmas Lemoyne Star Book Bind Fun Fold

Julie Heitz 2023-12-12 | Thursday’s FB Live, 12/7/23.
One block, 3 Quilt patterns. Yep! With each step of the way in creating a Christmas Lemoyne Star you will see 3 different quilt patterns. You will love this process, I promise!
What you need for the quilt block:
3 colors of DSP
DSP #1: 4” square. If you are using a directional pattern, make it your 4” square. I chose the shaded spruce/garden green plaid from the Joy of Christmas DSP.
DSP #2: 2 7/8” square complimentary to DSP #1. I chose the real red marbled pattern from the Joy of Christmas DSP.
DSP #3: this color will frame the star. Consideration should be that it complements the first 2 colors but does not compete for attention. You will need (1) 2” square and (4) 1” squares. I chose the green leaves on a white background from the Joy of Christmas DSP (it is actually the flip side of the real red marbled paper).
Card Base: 4 1/4” x 11”, score at 5 1/2”. I chose Pebbled Path cs.
Card inserts: 4” square Basic White cs.
DSP layer: (1) slightly larger than 4 1/8” square real red (can be DSP or cs).
DSP strips: (1) 5/8” x 4” real red.
(1) 1 1/8” x 4 1/8” pebbled path.
DSP back: (1) 4” x 5 1/4” in landscape orientation.
Embellishments: 2023-2025 In Color Dots shown.
Very Vanilla/Black plaid ribbon shown.
Sentiment stamp from More Wishes stamp set.
Shaded Spruce ink pad.
See you at 11:30am EST!

Wrap & Weave Hello Harvest Cards

Julie Heitz 2022-09-24 | FB Live from September 22, 2022.
Tomorrow’s FB Live: Inspired by a Black and White quilt weaved with pops of color, I’m celebrating the first day of fall with a Wrap & Weave Harvest card.
What I’m using:
(6) 1/2” x 6” strips of Black & White Perfectly Penciled DSP. I’ve chosen 3 strips in shades of gray/black and 3 strips of white.

(1) 3 3/4” x 5” Basic White CS
(1) 4” x 5 1/4” Basic Black CS
I suggest waiting on choosing your color of card base until the quilt is done. You never know which color will speak to you most.
You will also need a Label with a stamped sentiment and extras to tuck behind the label or die cut. See the photo for reference.
Look at your stash and use what you have.
I’m using Hello Harvest stamps and dies. I’m also going to show you the Stitched with Whimsey die that can give you that custom quilting look in a border!!!

Wonky Angles Gnome Fun Fold Card

Julie Heitz 2022-09-09 | Inspired by a quilt pattern “stack & whack” (kind of), we’ll be creating 4 Wonky Angled Fun-Fold Gnome cards in tomorrow’s FB Live at 11:30am EST on The Chirpy Cardmaker of Quilts page.
You know, I do think Gnomes are ADORABLE, but honestly, I purchased the Storybook Gnomes DSP for the snowflakes and cool winter blue colors. This DSP will do all the work for these cards! The images are large enough that I had a ball fussy-cutting the Mushroom homes and the Gnomes 😊❤️. And of course I’m now contemplating if I should purchase the stamp & die bundle. These Gnomes have won me over ❤️.
This wonky-angled patchwork background will look amazing using ANY DSP so go to your stash and start thinking about what you’d like to use!
To make 4 cards, here’s what you’ll need:
(2) 8 1/2” x 11” CS that coordinate with your DSP
(2) 8 1/2” x 11” Basic White CS
(4) 6” x 12” strips of DSP
(1) 8 1/2” x 11” Grid paper or copy paper (I need lines to keep me straight 🤣). Your SU grid paper will be perfect for this. 😊
Fussy-cut or Die-cut focal images
Sentiment (size will vary depending on the size of your focal images).
Embellishments
Dimensionals
Wink of Stella
Coordinating colors of Ink
Scrap of CS for creating a negative space oval for images to “land” on. I will be using a Stampin’ Blend to color in the landing.
See you tomorrow!!! 😊❤️🍄❄️

Julie Heitz 2022-05-26 | Hues of Happiness DSP with Brights 6 x 6 DSP…match made in Heaven!
What do I ❤️ love about the Hues of Happiness DSP? It has to be that I can get all the colors of the rainbow in one cut! On one strip of DSP I can go from pinks/reds to blue-greens/purple.

(2) variegated HOH DSP that measure 1/4” x 12”
(3) ombré shades of Brights DSP that measure 1” x 6” (I can’t decide on pinks or blue-greens so I cut both 😊)
(2) 3” square 9-patch grids
The (3) 1” x 6” strips will yield 2 quilt blocks and the 1/4” x 12” strips will yield (2) components needed for the quilt blocks.
To complete the cards you will need:
(2) A2 card bases
(4) Basic White 4” x 5 1/4” CS
2 to emboss, 2 for inserts
(2) DSP backs 4” x 5 1/4”

Artistically Inked and Expressions in Ink, Cut & Flip Quilt Block

Julie Heitz 2022-04-18 | In this video, I will demonstrate a shortcut to cutting all the squares and rectangles used in the pattern. Why work harder, right? It all begins with strips of DSP...that's right, strips!

I chose 5 different, coordinating papers. 4 were cut 1" x 8 1/2". One was cut 1/2" x 8", then cut in half at 4".

I drew on grid paper a pattern that was 4" x 8 1/2". I drew 4, 1" horizontal lines just to keep me straight when adhering the strips to the grid paper.
I cut a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of cardstock to adhere the units onto. I hope you enjoy the video!
