Quilt Along #38 – Lost Data
Now let’s get going on a new design for this week. This month we’ve studied Edge to Edge designs and many variations on the same Flowing Lines theme. Here’s a quick review of each design:
It’s been wonderfully fun to focus on this group of designs, but this is the last week of October so it’s time to finish up with one last variation, this time combining Jagged Lines with Zippling to form Lost Data:
Funny story about the video below – I asked Josh to edit a list of videos the other day. He worked on them for a few hours and said “I got them all done except the one with lost data.” Oops! I do believe that’s the first time a design name has gotten me in trouble!
Difficulty Level – Intermediate.
Design Family – Edge to Edge.
Now this is the last week of October, the last day actually, so I hope you all have a fun and safe Halloween. Next month we’re going to focus not on a family of designs, but on ways to break up and knock out quilts quickly.
At the end of this particular video, the Batik Beauty quilt was less than 1/2 filled and I was feeling eager to knock it out quickly. After quilting out all of November’s designs, the quilt only had a few small places to fill, so the designs we’ll learn in the coming weeks will hopefully fill spaces very fast, very simply, but still with amazing texture and design.
Let’s go quilt!

I got the Craftsy email this morning promoting your class and I was like, "Oh my gosh she's a quilting superstar!"
HURRAY! I just signed-up for your craftsy class. Can't wait to watch your video.
Also just last night I worked on the April English paper piecing block. So, it would be fun to see your suggestion.
Congratulations on the Craftsy class :-)!
Congrats! I look forward to signing up to the class and working on my BOM quilt.
Woohoo! I just purchased your Crafty class. I can't wait to watch it!
Congratulations! The preview looks very promising!
Congratulations Leah! Well deserved recognition for the great tips, tricks, skills and advice you've been sharing for years!

Just watched the video. Your chicken is trying to steal you thunder, LOL
Congratulations, Leah! I'm all signed up for your Craftsy class. Looking forward to working through a project with you and all the other students. Of course, I'll still be back here regularly as well. Thanks (again and again!) for all of the work you've done to help us learn / better skills in FMQ!
You are so talented! Beautiful!
Oh how cool. I'm waiting for tomorrow to see how my block of the month quilt with Amy Gibson will go together and now my favorite free motion teacher has a class for quilting it. I'm feeling so energized to get this going. Congrats on the Craftsy class.
AWESOME! 50% off your class…I am so psyched! Thanks again, and I was so glad to see your class showing up!
Leah, you make it all look so easy, then I get to my machine and it ain't so!
You are great, love all your lessons.
I just signed up for your Craftsy class. Thanks for the link to the discount, that was wonderful.
