Quilt Reveal – Hexagon Quilt #5

Quilt Reveal – Hexagon Quilt #5

I feel like I am making this quilt every few weeks now.  It’s popular in my shop.  And I just really love it.  Particular today’s version of it. So in this version, my customer chose 10 different fabrics, but I added to those fabrics to give it more of a smidgen of scrappy feel. I…

Quilt Finish – Star Dance Quilt

I’ve been working on this quilt all of last week.  Not the one you see above my sewing machine, that’s a WIP, but the one you see at my machine. It’s a simple block, but I had to make 81 of them for a king size quilt, so it took me a bit. Here are a…

Lately – the end of March

It’s the last day of March. How is that possible?  Didn’t it just become 2017?  The older I get the quicker time seems to move.  Unlike my teenagers who think a week is the longest time in the world to have to wait for something.  “It’s just a week,” I say.  Only to be met…

How to Piece like a Rockstar – Part 1 – Better Cutting Methods

This post has been edited to add in this video on 10/12/2017.    I want to start this off my saying that you are making a quilt. The little things really don’t matter. Like if your points line up, or if your edges are wobbly, or if you have a pinch or two in your…

Monday is all About Fabric #5 – Random fabrics added to my stash

I don’t have a yummy new fabric collection for you today.  What I do have is some fabrics I added to my stash this week. In an old dresser moved down here in my basement studio I have all of my stash (not my scraps).  It is all color coordinated.  I have two colors per…

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
