How to make no waste flying geese units

Learn how to make no waste flying geese units for your quilt without cutting a single triangle. This construction method keeps your fabric from stretching on the bias, which makes for perfect piecing where blocks turn out the right size, points are where they are supposed to be and your quilt lies flat.

Angela Sundress

Pretty girls and little dresses

I took June off as a kind of maternity leave from the blog, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been sewing. Angela is on a pretty predictable schedule, which means I’m able to get some sewing in during her naps. That’s when I whipped up this cute little dress for Angela. It’s a little big […]

Triangle Boot Camp

I’ve started a new quilt, that I designed for a class I’m teaching in June called Triangle Boot Camp. My method of sewing triangles involves sewing them together as squares first and then slicing them in half. It’s easier because the point of the triangles doesn’t get eaten by your feed dogs, you don’t have […]

Quilt Retreat progress report

Life has been a little nuts since I returned from quilt retreat two weeks ago. I’ve barely touched my sewing machine, which is why I love going to it twice a year for three days of completely uninterrupted sewing time. I had a pretty hefty to-do list when I left, and I’m happy to say […]

When it’s OK to use fusble web for applique

I’m kind of an applique snob. I’ve tried just about every method known to man and have come to the conclusion that, in my humble opinion, to create heirloom applique you should use the spray starch method and stitch the edges under with teeny tiny stitches in a neutral colored silk thread so they will […]

On a UFO mission

This year is the year of the UFO. I’ve been trying to wrap up all my unfinished projects. So far I’ve finished seven quilts, but only two are on my list of five major UFO projects I would like to finish this year. But after this weekend I should be much closer to finishing a […]
