New York Beauty progress report

The first day of quilt retreat is over and I have a whopping 10 New York Beauty blocks to show for it. That makes 28 total, just four shy of the halfway mark for this king sized quilt. I started it a year ago at retreat and don’t work on it that often at home, […]

#iheartquiltretreat

I spent four glorious days at Quilt Retreat. I really needed the time away because my job has been really stressful recently. I sewed, slept and got a ton of sewing done. But rather than go on about it, I thought I would just share my weekend in Instagram photos. http://instagram.com/p/W72_UJP4V0/ Do you think this […]

Learning to quilt feathers

Whenever I’ve had an inkling to learn a new quilting skill, I never start small. More often than not I decide I’m going to do it, and it is going to be king sized. That’s how I learned to paper piece, sew curved seams and triangles. Now I’m going to learn how to quilt feathers […]

Liberated quilting with Gwen Marston

Liberated quilt champion Gwen Marston was the featured speaker at the Mississippi Valley Quilt Guild this month and I really enjoyed her presentation. She started her lecture by describing her experiences learning to quilt with Mennonite women and then having the opportunity to see a large collection of antique quilts early in her quilting life […]

It’s growing!

I started a new quilt a little less than three weeks ago when I took a class from Marti Michell. Normally it takes me FOREVER to make quilts. Usually because I have Quilters ADD and can’t focus on one project long enough to make any real progress. The Superman quilt I decided to make on […]

It’s a Christmas miracle

It’s Christmas Eve and I don’t have any last minute sewing to do … It’s a Christmas miracle. Normally about this time I’m freaking out about how exactly I’m going to finish everything and get it wrapped in time. Honestly, it doesn’t really even feel like Christmas if I’m not still up at 5 a.m. […]

It’s all about good preparation

When I attended my first quilt retreat I brought a stack of fat quarters and a pattern from a magazine I wanted to make. My table-mate brought all her pieces pre-cut and ready to sew. We both got about the same amount of work done, but at the end of the weekend, it looked like […]

One baby, one quilt

One quilt, one picture every Thursday and one baby growing up too fast. I’ve been taking weekly pictures of Angela using the quilt my aunt made for her as the background. You can see bigger shots below. The idea is to document her subtle changes as she grows during her first year of life. I […]
