Sprucing Up – Boho inspired Dresden pillow (sewing finishes)

My niece asked for bows and I started making them.  They are no-sew and just need a hot glue gun (I used this tutorial).  I liked them so much I made some for myself.  Not really to wear, but maybe. Then I got into my crochet lace stash, and after that I made the little…

There’s no rushing a Dilly Dally quilt. 49 block There’s no rushing a Dilly Dally quilt. 49 blocks means lots of time at the machine, and I loved every minute of it. This pattern has a rhythm to it, a peaceful kind of repetition that lets you sink into the sewing. The kind of project that reminds you it’s okay to slow down and just enjoy the process.I used Jellybean Meadow fabrics for this one. Soft, happy, and playful. And they added just the right spark to every block with those fussy cuts.There’s a quiet joy in watching something grow, one stitch at a time. 💛🧵

If you’ve been eyeing Midsummery, today’s your If you’ve been eyeing Midsummery, today’s your last chance to pre-order! This is one of the prettiest, sunniest fabric lines I’ve worked with. And I couldn’t resist making something fast and fun with it.This is my Good Girl quilt pattern, but reversed! I used Midsummery for the background and kept the foreground in simple whites. Nothing fancy, just a relaxing, easy quilt top that came together in two days.Fabrics: MidsummeryPattern: Good Girl

Sunday is the last day to pre-order the Midsummery Sunday is the last day to pre-order the Midsummery fabric collection. If you've been thinking about grabbing it, now’s the time. It’s full of soft, happy tones that feel easy to mix and use, really versatile and just pretty. I am so into that periwinkle!I’m using it in a Good Girl quilt right now and just finished all the blocks. Did them all in one day. That’s how you know I was into it. Can’t wait to get this one stitched up.
Lately I’ve been reminding myself that things do Lately I’ve been reminding myself that things don’t have to happen fast to be good. Letting things unfold in their own way without pushing. There’s a peace in the slow parts. And a lot of learning, too. 🩵 This is my Dilly Dally quilt in Tiny Terrazzo fabrics. Soft colors, scattered prints, and a joy in every block. It came together at a steady pace, and I loved every minute of the process.
