Let’s Quilt Leaf Peepers! Echo Ditching and Block 1

Hello my Leaf Peeping Friends! It’s been a very wet, rainy weekend, but the sun has finally come out. I’m hoping the weather will cool off and we can become real leaf peepers as the leaves begin changing colors.

Last week we finished up piecing the last leaf quilt block which means this week we get to dive into my favorite part of the process: quilting!

Yes, Sheri and I are both quilting this quilt differently with two very different styles of quilting! I hope you’ll check out both tutorials to understand why we’re making these choices and pull a bit of info from both of us as you tackle your quilt.

Now I’m off to clean up the mess that is my kitchen studio. I have the entire contents of the Crafty Cottage spread over the tables and it’s time I sort through it all before putting it back.

Let’s go quilt,

Leah Day
