Sugar Bear in Funshine I enjoyed making this quilt. Like really, really. There’s something about a sampler quilt, especially in this block style. I like working on blocks individually this way. I’ve found that when all the blocks are the same in a quilt, I tend to chain piece and do “all at once” style a bit more. In this type of quilt though, it feels like everything is a bit more involved or invested, not sure why. Maybe because all of your thoughts and focus are on each single block as you work instead of focusing on...

Migration in Liberty + Gold It seems I forgot to post about this when I finished it in late January. An easy breezy quilt it was and perfect for taking care of those scraps, which it did. This one has a bit more cohesion to it than some of my prior versions and it’s been all done in Liberty’s Tana Lawn, so it’s slinky and luxey feeling.

LaLa Fancy in Amber Folk I’m thinking this version of LaLa Fancy is my most favorite quilt I’ve ever completed. I can’t normally say that I like all parts of my work and that all the parts came together for me, but I feel exactly that way with this finish. Fabrics, quilting, I love all of it.

LaLa Fancy in Pumpkin Parchment I finished my first LaLa Fancy quilt! I think this might be the best quilting I’ve done on a quilt, at least as an all over design. It’s hard to be completely pleased with any quilt, I’m so critical of myself, but I think I really saw some growth with this one and that feels so good to say….finally. Maybe I just finally worked out a design I really like all parts of. Who knows? Keep scrolling, I’ll tell you more about it. If you missed my “progress” post on this one, you...
I’ve just finished up my 11th Little Miss Sawtooth quilt! Whew! I really enjoy making this quilt. I love the flow of the pattern. You make all your star points in the very beginning, so once those are done, it’s just block after block and each one different. I actually have a bit of a surprise coming up for next year. I’ve got a pattern that’s very similar coming, but also not similar. The flow is the same and it’s also a traditional block reconstructed. I’m antsy to show you, but it probably will be February before I...
I’ll be talking about the Para Para quilt today. This one has sat unfinished since February/March. We had the Para Para quilt along at the beginning of the year and seems like it finished up right around the time Covid began or became widespread. I became involved with other things and the quilt top hung over a clothes hanger and dangled from a shelf staring at me all year long. I did feel guilty. I stared back at it often enough, and had it in plans to finish many times. When we started the Anthologie quilt along a...
It’s been a while since I’ve completed a rescue quilt, but today I have a fairly small Log Cabin quilt that I just completed last week. Not the most precious I’ve done, but I loved the bold, contrasting design and colors. Let’s dig in! The Rescue Quilt series is about finishing up quilt tops that were never completed. The goal is to honor the quilt maker who made the quilt top by completing their project, to not waste good craftsmanship (usually done by hand), to ogle long ago yummy fabrics, and to breathe in a little old...
Today I’m showing off my latest Morning Sun quilt and I am ridiculously excited over it. It might be my very best effort, and though, I know I usually self criticise (kindly) a lot in these reveal posts, but I won’t be doing that in this one. I am in LOVE! If you missed my “progress” post on this one, you can find it here. View all of my Morning Sun quilts here. Pattern can be found here. I’ve probably been working on this quilt here and there for about a month now. I...
‘ Va va voom…. well, that’s how this quilt makes me feel. Like she’s a whole lotta woman and too much for me to be lugging around especially in the weather we’ve been having. I’m talking about my finished A Dresden quilt today. A king size! Every single part of her took forever as I’m sure you can imagine. Now that she’s finished it feels like I’ve ran a marathon (the world’s slowest) and I’ve just crossed the finish line and want to do absolutely nothing…, but snuggle under her. If you missed my “progress” post on this...
I’m done! This one feels really good to have finished. And I’m pretty pleased with it too. I wish you could hear me berating myself during quilting only to be so pleased when I pull it from the dryer. Do you do this too? Why do we do that? I’m going to make an effort to stop that. Find all my Moon Goddess quilts here. Pattern available here. This one is going to my step daughter who is pregnant and due this November. I mentioned in my progress post that I wanted to...
