In spending quite some time pondering ideas for a new quilt for our living room, I think I have the golden ticket!  My hubby built me a really nice shelf/quilt hanger and I’ve just been using quilts I have at home for display.  None of them are quite right and I’ve known a new project [...]

I’ve completed my square, oh yes I did.  I’ve completed my square, how about YOU?  Aren’t we all forcing ourselves {in some way} to get everything done we’ve committed to?  For me finding the time is the biggest battle and when I do, I just love love love creating and sewing.  This month Rachel at [...]

As I’ve mentioned in past posts, I’m part of the Love group of do. Good Stitches Charity Bee.  Lee at Freshly Pieced  was our quilter for the month of June & had us stitch hexies.  This was my first time sewing around a hexagon and I loved it.  Her instructions are perfection and so helpful.  [...]

Gosh, I fought through this month’s do. Good Stitches charity squares.  Not because I don’t love them.  I do.  Not because they were hard.  They’re not.  Ugh, why?  I honestly couldn’t tell you other than my same ol sob story, I’m busy yada yada.  Plus, they were time consuming.  I finished one square mid April [...]

Here’s to another do. Good Stitches charity block for the month of March.  This block is completely representative of my March 2011.  It’s been one block after another and I can only remember bits of it all.  One wedding after another, oral surgeries, ortho appointments, spring break, mainland visitors, 100 cupcake order for a sweet [...]

Rachel, the originator of do. Good Stitches, is the quilter for the month of February.  She is putting together a “Punchy Wonky Star Quilt” full of red, pink, and white.  I can’t think of any better quilt & color combination for the love month of February.  Her quilt top vision was a burst of wonky [...]

Elizabeth of Oh Fransson was our charity quilter for do. Good Stitches {A Charity Bee} for the month of January.  She instructed her stitchers (that’s me) to construct  2 mod mosaic pieces each.  If you like this technique I suggest you visit her tutorial, which is very easy to follow.  Here’s what I came up [...]
