I just had to share the finished quilt top with borders!  Ashley and I made what I think is a great decision on borders based on the fabric I had on hand.  So now the top is complete and will travel with me to the quilter later this week.  One big project crossed off my […]

I thought you might like to see the It’s A Wrap with a label!

Last week I saw these cute coffee wraps on Sweetwater’s blog and they were offering a kit, so I bought one.  Oh my goodness are these cute.  They also provided labels, but I like the plain ones I made too.  I have posted two of them for sale in my etsy shop if you are […]

Here are some new runners that are being added to my shop today!  I thought you might enjoy the variation I did on the Skinny Authentic Table Runner.  I decided to try out a Skinny Table Runner in the Make Life fabric line.  I like them both – they each have a distinct look.  So […]

Well I did it!!!  If you follow me on twitter, you know that I decided to tackle a big project this weekend.  If you recall I posted in one of my first posts about a LARGE table runner I was making for dear friends of my Brother’s family.  It has been hanging in my studio […]

If you remember I posted a bit ago about a Turtle Quilt I am working on.  Well the border blocks required 240 half-square triangles – now that is A LOT of triangles!!!!  Well I thought you would like to know those are done and just yesterday I began piecing the border blocks.  Be watching for […]

Well it is finished – Ashley’s wedding quilt top that is!  Whew!  I really love it!!  I am still working on the border options and then I can send it off to the quilter.  I just thought I would share the finished top.  The feeling of finishing a project is rewarding!

Okay here is the unveiling of the new blocks I am working on with the Make Life fabric from Sweetwater.  I am using the block pattern my Mom brought with her.  I am thinking I will sew three blocks together.  Any comments?  Any ideas?

While my Mom was here we made the rounds to several local quilt stores – our own version of a Shop Hop!  I bought some of Hunky Dory by Chez Moi and Oz by Sanae along with some additional pieces to make some fall color runners.  I couldn’t resist American Jane’s new line in a […]
