FABRIC MONDAY

Monday is all About Fabric #10 – Random Prints from Art Gallery Fabrics

I think you know by now that I’m pretty smitten with Art Gallery Fabrics.  This is my 10th Monday Fabric post and I’ve featured Art Gallery in at least 3 of those. So yeah…..smitten. I like the drape of their fabric, the thin, silkiness that it has.  Their catch phrase is “Feel the Difference” after…

Quilt Reveal – My Eowyn Quilt is Finished + thoughts on hand quilting

I’m pretty smitten about this quilt.  When I discussed it in my previous post, I was talking about trying hand quilting.   I decided to machine quilt first and then add the hand quilting.  This might have been a little backwards to the correct way of doing this, BUT it really was what and how…

A Quilt Maker’s Terminology

When I first started quilting back in 2008, there was so much to learn.  I’m still learning, constantly.  There is a never ending well of information to grasp in the quilting world. Learning what all the words in a pattern or blog post mean felt like it would take forever.  I’d read the quilt pattern,…

Monday is all about Fabric #9 – Katarina Roccella prints

I didn’t get much fabric in last week.  It’s been slow in that way. I did however, get a print or two. I’ve got this thing for florals.  It’s pretty serious, florals and me. And this print seriously struck me.  This is the kinda print that has me doing double takes and buckling at the…

Quilt Beginnings – Quote Quilt and all the supplies

Inspiration. It’s a pretty amazing feeling.  I don’t always have it, but when I do it almost feels like my mind is soaring. Ideas.  Feelings.  Excitement. There is usually a beginning. From about this past November – January, I was reading The Lord of the Rings books.  I know, I know.  I used to hate…

Quilt Reveal – Swoon #4, A Father’s Shirts

This is my fourth Swoon quilt finish. And one I think I might be the most pleased with. In my shop, I actually make quite a bit of memory quilts.  They keep a roof over my head.  I usually make them in the rag quilt style.  It doesn’t matter what materials I use, all are…

Sunday is the last day to pre-order the Midsummery Sunday is the last day to pre-order the Midsummery fabric collection. If you've been thinking about grabbing it, now’s the time. It’s full of soft, happy tones that feel easy to mix and use, really versatile and just pretty. I am so into that periwinkle!I’m using it in a Good Girl quilt right now and just finished all the blocks. Did them all in one day. That’s how you know I was into it. Can’t wait to get this one stitched up.
Lately I’ve been reminding myself that things do Lately I’ve been reminding myself that things don’t have to happen fast to be good. Letting things unfold in their own way without pushing. There’s a peace in the slow parts. And a lot of learning, too. 🩵 This is my Dilly Dally quilt in Tiny Terrazzo fabrics. Soft colors, scattered prints, and a joy in every block. It came together at a steady pace, and I loved every minute of the process.
Say hello to Candy Apple Sweetheart 🍂💕 This Say hello to Candy Apple Sweetheart 🍂💕 This new collection is bursting with the dreamiest fall colors, fuchsias, corals, oranges, chocolate browns, and more.Available now for pre-order in fat quarter + half yard bundles, kits, and yardage!✨ Arriving in September. Time to start planning those cozy autumn quilts! Comment "candy apple" for more details.
FINAL border is on! DILLY DALLY has been in the wo FINAL border is on! DILLY DALLY has been in the works since January, and today I sewed the last piece. If you need me, I’ll be over here dramatically wiping my brow and pretending this didn’t take half the year. 🙌  #dillydallyquilt Aussie Sewing Cabinet from @arrowsewing

Two new fat stack bundles just made their way into Two new fat stack bundles just made their way into the shop! 🌸Garden Therapy is full of soft florals and calming greens, perfect for quiet, calm stitching. And Hope and Feathers is all blushy pinks and sweet corals with just enough mood to make it interesting. Ten fat quarters each, and just the right size for a little creative spark. Find both @meanderandmake .
DILLY DALLY is getting her borders on! 💃✨ Bor DILLY DALLY is getting her borders on! 💃✨ Borders 2 and 3 are now available to watch in the Dilly Dally Quilt Class, and I'm loving how this quilt is coming together! Also… can we take a moment for my sewing setup? That dreamy workspace is thanks to @arrowsewing . It makes long border sessions way more comfy. 🧵💗 #dillydallyquilt #borderwork #quiltprogress
I’ve been working on DILLY DALLY since January, I’ve been working on DILLY DALLY since January, and seeing her up on the wall in all her glory feels like I just climbed a mountain, ran a marathon… or defeated a villain in the final scene. Really though, I’ve just been in my sewing room, sewing and talking to myself for six months. Totally the same thing.Dingo cabinet from @arrowsewing . Fabrics from @meanderandmake .
Why is picking a sashing color the hardest decisio Why is picking a sashing color the hardest decision ever? After much debate (and way too many fabric auditions), I went with Clover Misty and I think DILLY DALLY approves. #dillydallyquilt
