New Pillows in the Shop

6 / 25 / 186 / 24 / 18
Blue and white patchwork linen throw pillow.

Hey there friends! I just listed a few new pillow covers in my Etsy Shop. The first one is made of subtle blue and white linen fabrics. I tend to do most of my patchwork with low volume fabrics, but this one is even more neutral than most. I thought it could be a great… Read More

A Finished Serendipity Fabrics Quilt

6 / 18 / 183 / 31 / 20
Serendipity Fabrics, Kinder Fabrics, Patchwork Quilt for Girls.

(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) This quilt was a rather quick finish, and the design is very simple. Yet again, I’ve concluded that I enjoy simple, straight, and classic lines with an overall scrappy combination of fabrics. This quilt has a wide variety of fabrics in blues, pinks, yellows,… Read More

A Dresden Plate Quilt that is Starting to look like a Quilt

6 / 4 / 18
Vintage inspired dresden plate quilt. Bella ruby ice fabric.

(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) This quilt has seen extremely slow progress. I’ve let it sit for over a year now. I’ve never sewn a quilt with Dresden plates. I’ve never appliqued anything onto a quilt. I’ve never sewn with curves. I’ve never hand quilted a large quilt either.… Read More

A Serendipity Quilt

5 / 28 / 185 / 27 / 18
Serendipity quilt. Girl quilt. Scrappy patchwork quilt. Serendipity fabrics by Zeriano.

(Please note that this post contains affiliate links.) I have three very blond haired little boys. I absolutely love some of the newer fabrics with some appropriate prints for boys (like this pirate print), but some of my all time favorite fabrics are the sweet girls frolicking in the fields of wild flowers. Do you… Read More

Chicken Fabric Seemed Appropriate

5 / 21 / 185 / 19 / 18
Welsummer fabric. Chicken quilting fabric. Strawberry quilting fabric.

(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) I broke my year long fabric fast this month. I love fabric. I thoroughly enjoy browsing the designs and learning about the designers and their inspiration. They’re artists, and I appreciate that about them. Almost every six months there’s a whole new wave of… Read More

How to Recover Square Patio Cushions

5 / 14 / 185 / 14 / 20
How to sew new covers for your patio chairs. How to sew a box.

I clicked through to a couple online stores the other day to find some new cushions for our patio chairs. Our cushions have seen better days, and we went all last summer without cushions. I had resolved that I’d slowly get them all recovered, but I never took the time to finish more than two.… Read More

5 / 7 / 185 / 6 / 18
Scrappy Trip Around the World Quilt, Orange and Pink Quilt, Strawberry Fabric

(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) March of 2017. That’s when I snapped the above picture. I’ve waited and waited to cut into that stack of fabric. I wasn’t completely sure what quilt pattern or block I wanted to use, but I also had too many other works in progress.… Read More

pink and yellow vintage sheet quilt. Flower power vintage sheets. Patchwork. 70 by 70 quilt.

(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) You may have read before on here that I don’t take too many custom orders. I think I could easily get wrapped up in running a quilting business and a blog, and some days I think I want to call this my part time… Read More

How I Basted my Large 70 by 70 inch Quilt

4 / 23 / 184 / 15 / 20
How to baste a large 70 by 70 inch quilt.

Basting is likely my LEAST favorite part of the quilting process. If I understand correctly, I seem to be in good company among other quilters. It’s a bit of a cumbersome task, and it must be done well to ensure good quilting. Late last year, I was basting a huge quilt. I was as careful… Read More
