So I don't know what it is about this version of this quilt, but I am finding it one of or the most romantic quilts I've ever made. I guess it's just the colors, maybe. The corals and oranges and bits of mint are certainly agreeing with me and the weather we are having here. I wish you were here and we were making this one together, but on that note, and after having numerous emails ...

Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt – #6 – quilt reveal
I hope that you are not getting tired of seeing me make this quilt. I'm pretty much making one every other month now. This was a customer requested quilt in blues and greens and low volumes as requested. The best part about this quilt is with the exception of the large low volume squares every single bit of this quilt top was made from my scrap baskets and boxes. Perusing through ...
Carolina Mingle Quilt – #3 – Quilt Reveal
I love, love, love doing quilt alongs with y'all. It really motivates me to stay on track and get things finished. I was also crazy inspired by these fabrics. I'm normally not into red, but the navy owned me to the bone and I loved the way the red roses popped from everywhere. Today, I'm showing you my third Carolina Mingle ...
The Rescue Quilts – #8 – Itty Bitty Trip Around the World – Quilt Reveal
The Rescue Quilt series is about finishing up quilt tops that were never completed and then remaking the pattern. Sometimes I find easier / modern ways to make the quilt pattern, and sometimes I change up the pattern a bit to freshen things up. Sometimes I will offer the quilt pattern to you free, sometimes it will be a paid pattern in my pattern shop. The goal is to honor the quilt maker ...
The Migration Quilt – #3 – quilt reveal
I've broken free of my usual boundaries. My usual boundaries, of course, being my love for low volume backgrounds. This was not free will. This is a custom quilt where I was told what background to use. While I'd prefer to see this quilt with my usual background, it's also nice to move out of one's way and try something different. I love the way those Liberty "butterflies" pop out ...
Bad Girl Quilt #2 – Quilt Reveal
I finished my second Bad Girl quilt (pattern releases Wednesday!). This time it's in wintery blue Essex linens. It's got some great textures. And those red roses in the low volume peeking out are making me squeal. Here was my first Bad Girl quilt, and you can see some of my testers versions here. This one might appear a bit different to you. My last one was the alternate version ...
The Bad Girl Quilt – Quilt Reveal
It feels like it's been awhile since I posted a proper quilt reveal. I must not be finishing many quilts lately. So today, I'll be showing you my soon-to-release quilt pattern: Bad Girl. Now there is nothing in that name other than the fact that we had the Good Girl quilt which was pretty easy and perfect for beginners or when you need a quick finish, so I felt like a Bad Girl ...
Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt #5 – Quilt Reveal
My fifth version of this quilt! And I may have cheated just a bit! That's okay! I know several of you have asked for this quilt as a quilt along, and I hear you, but have I mentioned this is my fifth time making it? Until I actually do this as a quilt along again, you can go at your own pace by checking out this post right here. It's great for beginners or anyone struggling with ...
Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt for Rachelle – quilt reveal
Well, I didn't get them out by Christmas as I hoped, but no matter. I promise it wasn't for lack of working on them, but shipping to and from Alabama to Oregon (to be longarmed) and back again took longer than we anticipated. As a reminder, these are the three quilts that we (yes, WE) made for Rachelle and her family who lost their homes in the Paradise, CA fires back in November. Here is ...
An Updated WIP List + Trip Around the World Quilt Reveal
It's been a tough day. It's been a tough week. I'm ready to be back in the swing of usual habits and routines. Pining for that in all truthfulness. I think we all know that there are some quilts that we begin that we don't at all feel bad to let languish untouched for months/years/forever and then there are quilts that we will come across as we are tidying up and feel a massive ...
