As long as you interface it so that it stays I think it should work. The biggest problem with knits or anything that stretches is that it will look puckered if not made stable (that’s why in T-shirt quilts interfacing the shirts is super important)
I’m not sure about silkier fabrics tho
Thanks! I think most of mine are the slightly stretchy type. So I should put interfacing on the back of those pieces before I use them? Sorry; I am a complete and utter beginner. 
Yeah I would use something somewhat light weight a SF101 or shape flex are both good.
I’m loving all the variations of the heart block.
I love how your blocks turned out!
You mentioned the fill-a-yard option from Spoonflower a while back, I think, and I’m so glad that you did. I am making I Spy quilts for three of my grandnephews, and I needed different fabrics (lots of them). The fill-a-yard panels were a life-saver! I can’t wait til they get here.
Not an actual quilt, but definitely quilt & craft related… I made a Quilting themed charm bracelet that I thought you guys might like to see. I loved making this one.
Me, too! And, since I don’t have any pinks/reds/purples in my color scheme, it makes me happy to see other colors being used. I think I might have to use green… since I love green 
Use any color, hearts come in all shapes and colors! I’m following a color theme so I can have a quilt for the new 3 season porch someday. But I am running out of navies and aqua/turquoise/teal colors. So I might make a trip to look for some fat quarters to fill things out a bit.
I cut all the squares for my next lap quilt, all came from stash for that one as well as numerous charm packs acquired over the years. I just need to get started on the sewing.
But…I designed a house block to go with the BOMs. Ignore the additional lines, they are for visualization, I’ll probably make it up as I go, but this gives me window, door, and solar panel sizes to shoot for. I think I’m procrastinating on starting the new lap quilt.
Ooh let me know how it goes. The BOM and economy blocks seems to have cured my aversion to triangles.
Picking fabrics for Feb’s BOM!
While going through my stash this week, I found back 40 blocks from cutoffs from the Dinoroar kids quilt and also some matching panels + enough leftovers from all the fabrics. So after the BOM and my denim quilt, that will be my next project.
I found a few more baby quilt panels. They came from someone else and they’ve been in my stash for years. I’m pretty sure the fabrics are curtain samples, but they’re 100% cotton and the same weight as quilting cotton so I’ll just use them as panels. I don’t love them but I know lots of people will, and I’ve found a local charity that requests quilts for babies born in poverty. So that’s where they’ll go when they’re done.
I haven’t done this much quilting in years but this thread has really inspired me!
That’s what we are here for and I am so glad to have you say that!
That is absolutely gorgeous!
Would anyone who has not yet nominated a block like to nominate this one? (FYI, you don’t have to actually make the block if you nominate it…but definite kudos and raffle points if you do!)
The method was fine, but I think I liked the “Easy 8” method better, one big square that you sew diagonally across in both directions, like I did for the Double Quartet Block above. With the zig zagging in this method I just tested, youhave to sew off the edge, then come back up on the edge in a diagonal, which does leave you tugging your threads to avoid the corners being eaten (which is not normally a problem on my machine, but it didn’t like these strips much).
Bonus: This block has no Flying Geese. LOL
I love this block! This is gorgeous.
and in case you missed it
Sorry, not sorry, geese. (I really wanted a goose emoji.)
Beautiful colors and a great addition!
