Winging it + (thoughts on improv layouts)

I talked about this quilt this past Monday. It’s all about deer.  One of my So Obsessed quilts.  I have them in my shop where you can pick the theme and maybe a color palette or any details really, but you give me creative freedom on the quilt. The quilt buyer for this quilt did…

Monday is all about Fabric – #12 – Buck Forest

Happy Monday, Sweets! I am knee deep in all things deer right now, while working on a deer themed quilt. And for the occasion, I brought in some of my favorite deer fabric, BUCK FOREST.

Happy Mistakes – Quilt Reveal – Scrapping Stars Quilt

You remember me mentioning this.  Well, I found in a basket these little four patches.  I’m certain I was planning to make stars, but that is where my certainty ends.  I had lots of little pieces cut up besides the little 4-patches.  I do remember where my inspiration for this block comes from.

Wandering Quilt – Kathy’s kitschy quilt + an update on the honey bee quilt

Just in case you are not familiar with traveling quilts here is the idea: Each member of your group creates a starter block and usually writes a journal with details, theme and style they would like their quilt to end up. You send your starter block to another member in your group (usually there is…

My favorite thing is sitting outside and stitching My favorite thing is sitting outside and stitching and listening to the birds chirp and maybe an audiobook and a mug of coffee with a little horchata creamer..You can’t tell in the video but the finches are brave and bold this time of year.

I think it made it warmer and cozier, which makes me a feel a little happier. Tiny things are the key to my happiness lately. Don't forget to find yours.Oh, I'm still looking for something to put in front of the table to hide the legs, the cords etc. I was thinking we could somehow fasten a chunk of wood and make it look more "desk-like". Someone on here suggested I make a quilt to put there (loved this idea). Do you have thoughts?
