Coin Quilt #1 (quilt reveal)

There is just something about emptying a box of scraps that feels good.  Really, really good. If you are following me over on Instagram, you might have seen me working on this quilt when it was just a box of scraps.  In my stories, I pulled out this box and it was just a full…

Quilt Reveal – The Good Girl Quilt

Oh, this quilt! I’m really digging it.  I’m not sure if it was just the colors chosen that really suit my style, the abundance of low volume which I know you know I’m into, the incredible beauty of all those blue AGF fabrics or just the simplicity of it, but I’m going to put this…

Why you should store scraps by size + That Strawberry Quilt ( quilt reveal )

Two things you should know about me by now:  One is very obvious.  I’m obsessed with low volume and I’m not fond of straying from it.  Two is that I am methodical in my scrap storage. It sounds stuffy to be methodical about anything, or it does to me, but I like things in their…

Stomping Grounds quilt ( quilt reveal )

Hello, my loves. There is nothing I like better than a good scrap busting quilt.  This is such a quilt even though I didn’t get to use it for that purpose.  This was a commissioned quilt for me, but I went ahead and turned it into a pattern for future scrap using purposes.  I’ve sent…

Quilting Experiments + Falling Slowly Quilt #2 (quilt reveal)

I made another Falling Slowly quilt.  It’s one of my favorites, because the ease of which it comes together.  Once everything is cut, there is just a massive chain piecing session.  I zone out with earbuds in my ear and before I realize it, all the blocks are ready for the design wall.   Forgive…

Quilt Reveal – Tiny Patch Quilt #3 – Take that, 4.5″ scrap bin!

Quilt Reveal – Tiny Patch Quilt #3 – Take that, 4.5″ scrap bin!

One way that I store scraps is by squares.  I have a bin for each different size from 2″ – 7″.  When one bin gets full, it’s time to do something with them.  For me, the easiest and most surest way to completely wipe that bin out is just by making a simple patchwork quilt….

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. Getting super close chasing each other and I just keep waiting for one to land on me.
Can't remember if I've posted these pics here yet. Can't remember if I've posted these pics here yet. I did a little tiny room refresher. 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?
