Blue ribbon quilts from the fair

I went to the Mississippi Valley Fair this week and spent some time looking at the quilts entered for judging. There were some beautiful quilts and for the first time, I felt like my skills are pretty comparable with some of the ones on display. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I’m good […]

A sneak peak at ‘The Wedding Quilt’

Judging by the expressions of jealousy and shared excited on my Facebook profile when I announced that I got my hands on an advance copy of Jennifer Chiaverini’s new book “The Wedding Quilt” I’m guessing you all are going to be pretty interested to read my review of the book. I’m halfway through and I’m […]

Sewing room

Sewing room disaster

A few weeks ago I wrote that my sewing room was so messy I was too embarrassed to show you all a picture. Well, then I threw some more junk in it, decided I have no shame when it comes to quilting and took this photo. I know, it’s bad. You can see a mess of laundry […]

Instagram, the great motivator

http://instagram.com/p/ax8csQv4S2/ I started using Instagram with some frequency about the same time I started my maple leaf log cabin quilt. I took a class from Marti Michell when she came to my guild, and used her log cabin construction technique to  combine two blocks I’ve been itching to make a quilt with for years. I […]

There’s usually wine and everyone is always willing to make sure I haven’t screwed something up too badly. The last time I was there, hugely pregnant finishing a baby sweater, I asked if they thought […]

Happy (belated) Halloween!

Halloween with a child, means I get to go nuts creating a handmade costume. This is probably the last year I get to pick what the costume is, so I went with a scarecrow. I didn’t really see a pattern I liked so I decided to make one myself. I’m not that skilled in pattern […]

Laura’s quilt 04

Quilted: Laura’s sunflowers

Some of you may recognize this pattern. It is a variation on Bonnie Hunter’s 2015 mystery. It was pieced by Laura Koppenhoefer, a woman I know from church who I’ve spent more than a few Saturdays making baptismal quilts with. I normally don’t quilt for others, but I made an exception for Laura. She has […]

New Rainbow Kaffe Prism Quilt Kits are FINALLY HERE!

We finally got the new Kaffe Prism Classics pre-cuts! These long awaited goodies were super delayed due to international shipping and product delays because of COIVD, but that just makes them that much more precious. Normally Kaffe pre-cuts are all one colorway, but the Prism Classics have all the color of the rainbow in one […]
