I’m going through quilt retreat withdrawal

I spent last Thursday through Sunday at quilt retreat and now I miss it. I look forward to the semi-annual retreat for months. It’s a great opportunity to make a lot of progress on quilts. I finished 10 blocks on my New York Beauty Christmas quilt, finished piecing the top for the class sample for my […]

I’m in love with Craftsy

If you haven’t checked out Craftsy, you need to right now. The website offers dozens of classes you can take online about all kind of crafts, from baking to furniture painting to, of course, quilting. I rent time on a long arm machine once a month to practice and improve my skills. But practice only […]

I’m keeping one of each of these for my stash!

We got two new collections by Stephanie Brandenburg for Frond Design Studios and I’m so in love with them, that I’m keeping one of each bundle for my personal stash! I’ve been of fan of Stephanie and her label Frond Design Studios for years, but started stocking her collections when she teamed up with Northcott […]

Socks

I’m learning to knit socks

For Christmas I asked for balls of sock yarn, never mind the fact that I didn’t actually know how to knit socks. I had a book on the subject and figured that if I could teach myself to quilt on the Internet, then I probably could teach myself to knit socks with a book. Well […]

I’m on Craftsy

I discovered Craftsy this week. It’s glorious. You can find patterns from independent designers like myself for quilting, knitting, jewelry and more. So naturally I created a shop for my patterns. My goal is to create two pattern books, one of triangles using my method of piecing them all from squares and another one of […]

I’m planning something big…

I’m working on something big for www.stephaniesoebbing.etsy.com. The only clue I’ll give you for now is that my plans require me to dig through the attic for props to photograph some new items with. Keep a lookout for the big reveal sometime next week.

Snowball nine patch

I’m snowed in my sewing room

OK, clearly it isn’t actually snowing in my sewing room, but my blue and white snowball quilt is starting to come together. I’ve had the snowball blocks done since I started the quilt in the middle of a heat wave last summer. But I’ve been taking my time on the 6-inch nine patches that will […]

Blue and white quilt

I’m spoiled by the long arm

Occasionally quilting really frustrates me, and now is one of those times. When I first started quilting I finished everything myself on my home sewing machine. But then I discovered Quilting By You in Bettendorf, Iowa, where you can rent time on a long arm machine and I’ve been spoiled ever since. On a long […]

Snowball

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 […]
