I’ve been bad

I promised myself I would not start a new project until I finished some unfinished ones I’m working on. But yesterday I just couldn’t help myself. I was straightening up and I came across some blue and white fabric scraps my aunt gave me for a snowball quilt I want to make. I’ve got about […]

Sewing room reno update

I used to be a DIY addict. When my husband and I bought our home, it had pretty much stood still in time since 1980. There was a lot of work to be done and we did it. Kitchen renovation, new flooring, tearing down walls and gallons and gallons of paint. Five years later, we’re […]

Don’t use those scissors!

Tomorrow my husband and I will celebrate our sixth wedding anniversary. We’ve been together for nearly eight years when you include our dating and engagement, and I’ve been a quilter for the majority of that time. Which means for the better part of a decade, he has been receiving proper scissor usage education. I really […]

Taking the plunge

Two weeks ago I was laid off. No warning, just called into the boss’ office and told that the social media department I was hired to build just wasn’t large enough to cover my salary and that was that. I probably should be mad. I was only there for seven months, and while at my […]

Dare to DIY: Homemade gifts

My friend Kim Woodward is hosting a Dare to DIY blog party over at NewlyWoodwards.com. This week the challenge is to make homemade gifts. Over the weekend I whipped up some Christmas stockings for my sister, brother-in-law and new nephew. When my sister asked for stockings I reminded her that I still haven’t made stockings […]

A system for keeping scraps

Some of you will consider this sacrilege: I threw out all the fabric in the picture above. I know there are some quilters out there who keep every piece of scrap fabric no matter how minuscule. I am not here to judge if you have bins filled with every piece of fabric left over from […]
