The charity bee I’m involved with assigns 2 12 1/2″ squares per month. Each month a different quilter chooses the type of quilt and sends out directions to the stitchers…that’s me! September’s mission was a tree quilt. We were allowed to be as creative as possible. The only real requirement was to use Kona White [...]

Can you say texture? This was a complete whim and I’m so glad I went with it. The biscuit patch was something I ran across in a random book teaching sewing techniques that had nothing to do with quilting. After seeing it, I couldn’t wait to apply it somehow and this vintage crib size quilt [...]

Last night I managed to finish this lovely quilting project on the commercial breaks of Fox/So You This You Can Dance. I spent 2 hours attaching binding prior to the much anticipated 7:00 o’clock hour. Oh I do love a good dance show. I can’t believe it’s completed. Honestly I never imagined this would be [...]
Phase 1 Completed

Phase 1 is probably just thinking up this crazy quilt, but you get my point. I have completed the middle top of the quilt as of midnight June 3, 2009. What a task! This part was hard. Figuring out where to put what and make it flow correctly was harder than I expected. A few [...]

So close I actually laid the quilt out. SO EXCITING!!! I have a vision of course. It entails two 3X3 8 1/2″ square blocks sewn together to make a very large block. One is a windmill pattern and the other is a block pattern. If the block pattern has a proper name I don’t know [...]

She’s crafty

My mom is very crafty. She’s extremely creative, which feels like a complete understatement. She’s amazing. She has been, in a variety of different ways, trying to get me to make a quilt. Its been going in one ear and out the other. Been there. Done that. Not doing it right now! Then she started [...]
