Friday Tuts – Granny Square Block Tutorial

Friday’s tutorial this week is one of my favorite quilt blocks. Several years ago, a little after my love affair with crochet began and I started making pinterest boards about it, I finally sat down and let my grandmother teach me.

Scrapping Star Block Tutorial

This star block is the block I made from this quilt I discussed yesterday. If you are sitting on top of pile of scraps consisting of 2.5″ and 3″ squares, along with some low volume strips, this one is for you! I don’t know about you, but my 2.5″ and all even numbered squares, I…

Modern Priscilla Block Pattern & Tutorial + How to Paper Piece

There are few things that I love more than quilting.  It’s a deep, rich love.  I’m more than a little obsessive passionate about it.  I know that I will be quilting until I physically no longer can.  I know that there will never be enough time to get all the ideas I have for quilts made, but…

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.
