Join the Block a Day Challenge in 2012

This is the time of year we all think about making resolutions to improve our lives, learn a new skill or to become a better version of ourselves. I’m going to make a resolution to finish more quilts and I’m issuing a challenge to help all quilters do the same. Quilters lead busy lives. We […]

My favorite (quilting) things

It’s the biggest shopping weekend of the year, so I put together a list of my favorite (quilting) things. These are products that make my quilting life easier and I use them all the time. If you don’t already have them in your quilting supplies, I absolutely recommend adding them to your Christmas list. What […]

Quilt retreat is coming!

In two days I’ll be on my way to Quilt Retreat in rural DeWitt, Iowa, for four days of quilting, eating and sleeping. That’s it. There’s no laundry to do, dogs to let out, kitchens to paint. Just quilt, eat and sleep. It makes for a glorious and productive weekend. I’m also really excited because […]

Combing my love of dogs and quilting

I found this super cute applique pattern at Nancy’s Notions and I have to have it. I’m going to make it in a summer scene so I’ll be able to make the dog look like Einstein, one of our three dogs. I’ve also been asked to make a wall hanging for a humane society fundraiser […]

An essay on clean underwear and quilting

This morning, for the second time this week, I had to wait for a load of laundry to finish drying so I could change my underpants before I left for work. This sad truth is neither an unusual occurrence, or a record of how many times a week I’ve woken up without clean skivvies. There are two reasons […]

Gnomes, dogs and sewing

If you’re wondering why I’m talking about gnomes and dogs on a quilting blog, I’ll explain. I have a friend who love gnomes. She has a cute little set in her house. So when I found Michael Miller’s Gnoming Around fabric collection I had to let her know about it. Soon a plan was hatched […]

Completing UFOs at quilt get-a-way

I attended a quilt get-a-way last weekend sponsored by my guild and was incredibly productive. The get-a-way is different than a retreat because it is in town, and you go home at the end of the night. But you can sew from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday through Monday if your heart so desires. […]
