Migration Quilt #5 – In Liberty + Gold – In Progress

  Migration Quilt #5 I started this Migration quilt last summer, and it’s been one of the slowest going quilts  I’ve ever worked on (especially considering what an easy quilt this one is). I don’t remember why I randomly cut it up one night. I usually plan my quilts out just so, but this one was…

LaLa Fancy #2 – In Amber Folk Bundle – In Progress

  I mentioned before that when I was writing LaLa Fancy, I decided to write it fat quarter friendly, but also write it using only 5 fabrics in yardage. Before Christmas, I set to work making this second version of the quilt using only the 5 fabrics: Raw Gold, Tumeric, Peach Sherbet, Georgia Peach and…

LaLa Fancy – In Pumpkin Parchment Bundle – In Progress

  I finished writing the pattern for LaLa Fancy a few weeks ago. I’ve had it designed for several months now, but I had written another pattern before it, one I was working on in September, BUT once I played around with colors and fabrics, I was in too deep and had to begin this…

Bohippian Quilt – Work in Progress #2 – 70s Vibes

  I’m finally done with the second round for my Bohippian quilt. I talked about Bohippian last in this progress post. It’s taken me two months to get the White Linen hexies on. I’m thinking I must be really slow, but I’m working an hour or two mostly daily while bingeing whatever show I’m bingeing…

Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt #11 – Coral, Turquoise + Yellow

  Yes, yes, yes, I’m making another Little Miss Sawtooth quilt. Don’t be judging me! 🙂 This one is a commissioned quilt and it’s meant to look like the original version, but a bit smaller. This time I’m making it 60″ square. And it’s my eleventh Little Miss quilt. Yah, I know, I know! Lol….

We have a cover! 📘✨ The Dilly Dally quilt bo We have a cover! 📘✨The Dilly Dally quilt book is officially coming together, and I’m so excited to share the front and back covers with you. This one’s been such a long, creative process, tiny blocks, thoughtful details, and now, a proper little book to hold it all.Swipe to see both sides of the cover. I can't wait for you to have this in your hands!#dillydallyquilt #quiltpatternbook #samplerquilt #southerncharmquilts #quiltcoverreveal #quiltinglife
Just wrapped up quilting the Dilly Dally quilt and Just wrapped up quilting the Dilly Dally quilt and I went all in on the details. ✨ Each block got its own custom design, some ruler work, some tiny free motion textures. In the sashing, I added soft squiggly lines that give it a crinkly, cozy look.But the borders… that’s where I tried something totally new. I marked a curving vine using a dinner plate (yes, really!) and freehanded a feather that snakes all the way around. This was my first time doing a border like this, and I just went for it. Organic, imperfect, but I love it.Swipe through to see all the texture and movement this quilting added to Dilly Dally. 💫#freemotionquilting #dillydallyquilt #quiltingdetails #quiltborder #southerncharmquilts #quiltingmotifs #samplerquilt

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
Another peek at the Dilly Dally quilt. This versio Another peek at the Dilly Dally quilt. This version is stitched up in Jellybean Meadow fabrics, and I’m just about to start quilting it! 💫 Soft and swirly... or maybe a more geometric look?How would you quilt it?
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.
