Saturdays with Stephanie July 22, 2017

OK, so I have done a pretty terrible job of blogging recently. We’re working on changing that by bringing on new team members here at Quilt Addicts Anonymous to handle the day-to-day tasks that have been created as this little blog turned into a full blown business.

It’s done! BOM 2014 on the bed for the first time

I know, we’re three quarters of the way through 2015, and I’m just now putting my 2014 BOM on the bed for the first time.

So I was in heaven when the benefactor for the Mississippi Valley Quilt Guild suggested buying fabric from SewBatik.com to make Judy Niemeyer’s Christmas Celebration Tree Skirt.

‘Giving Quilt’ returns to Elm Creek series roots

When most readers start a book series, they start at the beginning. That wasn’t the case for me when I discovered the Elm Creek Quilts series by Jennifer Chiaverini. I was still a relatively new quilter when I came across “The Cross-Country Quilters” on the shelf of my local library. The third novel in the […]
