Quilting wasn’t even my idea, it was my husband’s!
Hi! I’m Krista Russell, the quilt pattern designer, quilting educator, and longarm quilter behind Timeless Quilt Studio in La Ronge, Saskatchewan. I combine my hands-on quilting experience with a Bachelor of Education and approximately 15 years of teaching experience to create clear, practical learning experiences for quilters.
My quilting journey began with my second wedding anniversary. I decided that cloth napkins in our wedding colours were a must for our cotton anniversary. I didn’t know how to sew, didn’t have a sewing machine, and had no one to make them for me. What is a woman to do, but go buy a sewing machine!
My husband and I went shopping at the local quilt store which happens to be a block away from our home. While I was busy with machine demos, my husband was looking at all the quilts on display. On our way home, machine in hand, my husband informed he needed a quilt after those napkins were made. I did some research and found Melanie Hamm’s first quilt tutorial. I was hooked with that first quilt!
I am one of over 30 designers participating in the Shades of Grey Block Tour. Designers from across the world have come together and are creating a total of Fifty 6½” x 6½” blocks that are FREE. Make as many or few of the blocks as you’d like. There are prizes for those who join the Facebook community group and make all the blocks.
Both of the blocks below and any other 6½” x 6½” block will fit into the accompanying mug rug pattern. Click either button below to learn more about the story behind each block and get the pattern.
