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 ...

WIP – Trip Around The World Quilt – Progress
I know I've written about this quilt before, but can't seem to find that post. Regardless, this was a quilt I started back in 2016. I pulled the blocks out of their little basket stored with other WIPs I've lost interest in. There they were all purple, gray and yellow. Seems like I remember choosing the color palette based on another quilt I saw and loved on Instagram that I've long ...
The Basketweave Quilt – Quilt Reveal
I got to playing around with my scraps and a new Basketweave quilt is what became of that time. This is my second Basketweave, the first precedes the blog, but it wasn't pretty. This one is pretty, but something is still not right. Apparently, I didn't care. As you can see I finished it. But I've got some ideas to make this better. Product Spotlight Flutter Cotton and ...
Good Girl quilt #3 – quilt reveal
Sigh.... You know how much I love this quilt. It might be my favorite quilt pattern. Well, at least in the top two of my favorites. It's such a scrap buster. If you haven't already purchased my Good Girl quilt pattern, do so here. This was a custom order quilt, so I don't get to keep this one. Not that I have kept any of them. :( I keep giving ...

Hand Cut Heart Quilt #7 + Free Quilt Pattern – quilt reveal + video tutorial
Today I'm showing off my 7th version of this quilt, all in blue this time, and I'm updating my tutorial of this block. I'm killing it lately with my scrap busting. Making monochromatic quilts is the way for me for this. Here's what I do: I have a basket for each color of my scraps. All the pink and reds have a basket, all the greens, all the blues, each has their own basket. When the ...

I'm beyond happy with this quilt, with the process, with my yummy collection of low volume, with patchwork, with making quilts, oh my goodness, I'm just happy with everything.

The Rescue Quilts – #4 – The Landslide Quilt ( quilt reveal ) – The New
Hey y'all. It feels like a long time since I did a quilt reveal. This thought made me go back and look and the last reveal I did was early May for this quilt. That's not to say I haven't worked much since then. I've got several quilt tops in the making, just no finishes. But today that changes! It feels good to finish a quilt. And this quilt feels especially good because it's for my ...

Today I'm going into details about where the scrappy binding comes from, how to make it yourself and lots and lots of pictures. Where it comes from You're binding a ...
