I wanted to get the ball rolling with these threads so, I don't have much yet but, I'd like to show off one my first HP projects which was a Slytherin Quilt I made for EmmaRiddle. I made the pattern up myself and once I find it and type it up, I'll probably post it for others to use (I had planned on creating all four houses but, I got pregnant and moved and don't have the space for quilting anymore).

Wow! That's beautiful! Is it hand-pieced and sewn, or did you use a sewing machine?

Oh, I definitely used a sewing machine (you can see part of it in the background tee hee). I wouldn't be patient enough not to use a sewing machine.

Awesomeness. I wish I could do quilts like that. My mom knows how, but she doesn't like to make things for me unless it's absolutely important xDD

I so love the quilt. I so want to make something like that. Do you have a pattern at all if you don't mind me asking.

The design took a while but, once I had that I used some of my mother in-law's tricks so it didn't take too long to piece together. Mary Ann's Tips: To make a lot of those smaller blocks I sewed long strips of the two colors together and then just cut the strips up to create the blocks. Then, when you do triangles, you just make a center line on a block and sew to either side of the line, then cut down the line to create two blocks of two triangles. It doesn't seem like it would save much time but, it really does (especially when you're doing a lot of them). Quote:

It's in my closet with the pieces for my own Slytheirn quilt that I was going to make after I got back from visiting Emma. Needless to say, it's still just bits and pieces. I'll try and get it typed up for you after I finish this crochet poncho I'm working on for my grandmother's 80th birthday.

That is amazing. There are no other words. And I must say I have a great respect for Slytherin now that I've been on this site.
It's just beautiful. | |
