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….

Slow stitches, soft light, and a quilt keeping me Slow stitches, soft light, and a quilt keeping me warm while I finish the very last binding. Pure peace. ✨🧵
Pulled this one from my basket of rescue quilts 💕. She’s scrappy, pink, and pieced into these giant hexagons that I couldn’t stop staring at. The top had some little holes, but instead of “fixing” them, I just quilted right over so the story stayed in place.Now she’s sturdy, soft, and finished, with a seafoam binding and chunky pink stitches to cheer things on. Not perfect, but full of history and charm. You can watch the video of me finishing this quilt on my website today.#rescuequilt #quiltswithstories
Remember that big scorch mark I left on my wool ma Remember that big scorch mark I left on my wool mat? 😭 Y’all came through with so many tips, and @gina_tell_threadgraffiti shared the winning solution. Just put hydrogen peroxide on an old towel, lay it over the stain, and iron on top. The burn mark lifted right out, like magic. It even works on fabric stains and scorch marks too. I’m so grateful for this amazing quilting community 💕Beautiful gorgeous wool mat from @novodonquilting
