Wildflower Meadow pattern and tutorial

I originally designed this quilt pattern to make a gift for my aunt. I loved it so much I decided I had to write it up and share it with you all. This is an awesome stash buster quilt. I used up a bunch of fat quarters I bought when I first started quilting (they’re […]

Organizing the underwear drawer so I can sew

I let my sewing room become a disaster zone again. That in turn lead to the sewing supplies taking over the dining room table because I couldn’t actually quilt in the sewing room. And that lead to the living room going to hell because why keep it clean when it looks like a quilt store […]

First baby quilt of 2012

It’s looking like 2012 might be the year of the baby quilt as well. Heck maybe my entire 20s will be the decade of the baby quilt since all my friends seem to be having kids one after the other and there doesn’t appear to be an end in sight. But I love working on […]

5 sewing room organization hacks

I just ordered the final piece of furniture for my new sewing studio/office. Its a bookshelf for holding my quilt kits before they’re sold and some of my fabric stash. There’s no way all of it would fit in there. So in celebration of being almost done with my newly organized space, I decided to […]

November Block of the Month

We’re almost there. This is the second-to-last month for the 2015 Block of the Month and the last month we’re working with the blue fabrics. Next month we’ll move onto the purples and then we’ll put the entire quilt top together. Get excited! As usual, we’re making a lot of half-square triangles. The complicated look […]

Vlog: Honest Quilt Shop! Can I organize my projects?

Keeping your own sewing room clean and tidy is challenging enough. That is why the hashtag #honestcraftroom is so popular. If you are working on something, chances are you have a mess. Now multiple that by a dozen or so active projects and add all the fabric that is in a quilt shop, and you […]

Check out Leah Day’s podcast! I’m on it this week …

I will do interviews with local media any day of the week. Our brick and mortar shop is kind of the weak link when it comes to net revenue in the Quilt Addicts Anonymous brand. It makes money, but barely, and I know every time I chat with a local reporter, that number goes up […]

Quilt top reveal – Triangle Boot Camp

My plan was to work all day on Friday at quilt retreat to finish my triangle boot camp class sample, which I designed for a class I’m teaching in June at Neal’s Vacuum and Sewing Center in Muscatine, Iowa. But by the end of the night I just had the blocks done and the sashing […]

Jungle baby quilt reveal!

It was the morning of my sister’s baby shower, and I showed up at my sister’s house with a cardboard gift box. Instead of giving her the present, I locked myself in the nursery rearranged the room, much to the chagrin of her uber-friendly beagle, and staged a photo shoot with the jungle baby quilt I’ve […]
