This quilt is up next, since I failed to complete the backing for the floral quilt. You got a little peek at this one yesterday - as mentioned, I used these 4″ pre-cut squares that I received for Christmas. I pulled all that used aqua/green, navy, and olive. There weren’t enough for an entire quilt, [...]
I finished this quilt top last night. If you recall, I started it last month, though I was supposed to be working on Ryan’s This End Up quilt, so I had to put it aside for a while.
I like it because it’s bright and summery, which is so unlike our current Vermont weather (snow, wind, [...]
I’ve seen several “a year in review” type posts today, and it seems only appropriate that I do the same.
Last year at this time I never would have imagined that I’d have a blog, or that I’d become a quilter, or that I’d rather buy fabric than clothing. Who would have guessed!
In fact, it’s only [...]
Sally is my sweet 5 year old cousin’s doll, and when my aunt mentioned that Sally could use a new blanket, how could I resist?! I had already finished up Ryan’s quilt, and I had a day off from work … just enough time to get one more Christmas present finished.
For this quilt I used [...]
This year my family each selected just one person to buy gifts for. I ended up with my brother, and before you think that I just forced my love of quilts on a 29 year old guy, let me preface this by saying that he had previously mentioned that he’d like a quilt (though maybe [...]
Sometimes I think that I should sew something other than just quilts. After this little sewing project though, I think I should stick with quilting!
I decided to make this makeup/toiletries bag because I had some vinyl coated marimekko fabric just perfect for the interior. I didn’t have a pattern, nor did I bother to look [...]
I became a bit obsessed with my ‘creative therapy’ project (thanks Amy, I like that!). It was supposed to just be a little distraction, but since I had all the fabrics pulled out, I thought I should continue with it.
After I posted yestserday, I spent a little time on Flickr looking to see if anyone [...]
Thanks for all the comments on the last giveaway post! It looks like there are a lot of people out there who are pregnant or know someone who is! I’m not, and I don’t even know anyone who is (how about it, Kim?!), so I’m not sure why I was busy making baby blankets!
The random [...]
I finished the binding on this quilt last night and immediately threw it in the wash to let it get nice and soft and crinkly (to be honest, I also wanted a toasty, fresh out of the dryer quilt to lay under while watching Thursday night tv!)
I love the modern, simple look of this one. [...]
I’m working my way through my bag of scraps, though this may be the last one for a while - I’m getting a little tired of these same fabrics! I guess I need to start some other projects in order to create some new scraps…
This quilt is very simple - I had in mind a [...]
