Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt for Rachelle – quilt reveal

Well, I didn’t get them out by Christmas as I hoped, but no matter.  I promise it wasn’t for lack of working on them, but shipping to and from Alabama to Oregon (to be longarmed) and back again took longer than we anticipated. As a reminder, these are the three quilts that we (yes, WE)…

An Updated WIP List + Trip Around the World Quilt Reveal – Trippy Quilt

  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…

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 been free motion quilting since 2018 and it h I’ve been free motion quilting since 2018 and it has been the slowest part of the quilting journey for me. It did not come naturally. I practiced through a lot of very ugly stitching before anything started to look the way I imagined it could.I keep seeing comments like “I could never do this,” and I just want to say… I used to think that too.
