Some quilts just take time, and maybe that’s exa Some quilts just take time, and maybe that’s exactly what we need. I made Dilly Dally slowly, in the in-between moments, with quiet hands and a busy heart. Each block gave me a reason to pause. Each seam helped me breathe a little easier.There’s something comforting about making with your hands, about turning fabric and thread into something that holds you back.
The long journey is complete. 💛 Dilly Dally is The long journey is complete. 💛Dilly Dally is finished, front to back, and I couldn’t be more in love. This version uses Jellybean Meadow for both the quilt top and the wide back, and every stitch feels like sunshine and wildflowers. 🌼If you’ve been dreaming of making your own, kits are ready and waiting.

Just wrapped up quilting the Dilly Dally quilt and Just wrapped up quilting the Dilly Dally quilt and I went all in on the details. ✨ Each block got its own custom design, some ruler work, some tiny free motion textures. In the sashing, I added soft squiggly lines that give it a crinkly, cozy look.But the borders… that’s where I tried something totally new. I marked a curving vine using a dinner plate (yes, really!) and freehanded a feather that snakes all the way around. This was my first time doing a border like this, and I just went for it. Organic, imperfect, but I love it.Swipe through to see all the texture and movement this quilting added to Dilly Dally. 💫#freemotionquilting #dillydallyquilt #quiltingdetails #quiltborder #southerncharmquilts #quiltingmotifs #samplerquilt
