February Block of the Month

I hope you all are having as much fun with the Quilt Addicts Anonymous Block of the Month as I am. Nearly 1,500 of you downloaded the January block, and I can’t wait to see how everyone’s fabric and color choices make the pattern come to life in a different way. But now it’s time […]

February quilting goals: How’d I do?

I had such wonderful sewing goals for this month. But alas, the best laid plans are meant to be broken. I didn’t accomplish anywhere near what I wanted to thanks to a short month, and an unexpected sewing machine repair that left me without a machine for a week. Here’s what I did manage to […]

Stunning Christmas tree skirt in batiks

I LOVE batiks. I can’t get enough of them. So I was in heaven when the benefactor for the Mississippi Valley Quilt Guild suggested buying fabric from SewBatik.com to make Judy Niemeyer’s Christmas Celebration Tree Skirt. The benefactor business, Quilting By-You in Bettendorf, Iowa, is purchasing the fabric and donating the quilting for the tree […]

August BOM Pink

August Block of the Month

This month we’re making quarter square triangles, also known as hour glass units, from squares. It’s a new block for this quilt, but the technique is very similar to making the double pinwheels from squares, which we did in May and July. If you can handle those blocks, then this month will be a piece […]

Friday Progress Report: Fabriganza fun

This was the week of not getting much accomplished. I normally get plenty done over the weekend, but I had a bridal shower and bachelorette party in Chicago. I had a great time, but ended up with food poisoning from eating duck testicles. Long story, even longer time spent in the bathroom. Once I finally […]

The Quilter’s Palette

Gain confidence with ‘The Quilter’s Palette’

When I teach quilting classes the biggest problem my students encounter is figuring out which fabrics will look best with their pattern. The difficulties range from picking a palette of busy prints with no neutral fabric, having trouble putting prints together when they don’t come in a neatly packaged fabric line, to just not being confident […]

I landed another teaching gig

My class at CommUniversity, lead to another teaching position at Neal’s Vacuum and Sewing Center in Muscatine, Iowa. It all happened when I brought my machine there for an emergency cleaning. I’m paraphrasing a little, but the conversation went a little like this… “I know you’re backed up with sewing machines, but how quickly do […]
