As I was working on a project last week, I forced my self to stop and take a picture. I love the lines and the movement in these pieces. Amy Â

Yay for progress! Strip sets, and seams pressed open...a couple of my favorite things. Today I'll be cutting these sets, and continuing forward. Blessings ~ Amy Â
Here's a couple quilts in progress for me right now. I use binder clips to keep my pieces from getting lost, or confused, since I'm often cleaning up and putting things away again! Hopefully I'm making some progress as you read this! What are you working on? Amy
Hi there! Â I hope you had a good weekend! Â Mine was productive and fun...I cut 2 quilts, pieced another top, and made these blocks up. Â I had cut one last weekend, and hadn't had the chance to sit and sew all week. Â I'll show you that one after I have a chance to press and [...]
I found some Central Park charm packs for a steal a while back, and bought three! Â When I got around to using them, I couldn't remember what my original plan had been (gasp!) but they were sitting next to a pile of solids, and they had to be put together. I cut one of the [...]
Over the weekend, I pulled out the blocks from the bee I was in called "A Notion or Two" in 2009, and got to work!  I made the block that I needed to finish the group, and got busy.  This is a  departure from my usual fabric choices, but I love it!  I had designed/made [...]
Remember the organic fabrics I received a while back?  I had been staring at them, pawing them, waiting for the moment my plan formulated!  Last week I figured it out, I had a couple yards of bella - weathered teak, and decided to incorporate it to make a throw size quilt.  I cut the blocks out, [...]
The blocks for this quilt were made by my friends in the SewConnected group. Â We swapped fabric and blocks in 2009, and I just managed to sew my blocks up into a top! I like it right now, and I hope to really love it once I have it quilt and bound. Â Working with a [...]
They are not quilted yet, however, I'm ready to baste and quilt them all! I have my backing fabrics selected, and I pulled threads too. Â That always seems like the hardest part - getting all the details together. Â Once I have those worked out it is easy to move forward when I have the chance. [...]
2 1/2" Half Square Triangle Units. Cut with my Go! Cutter they are practically perfect! Â Really any error is my own. Â Not drawing the line down the center and having to cut saves a a lot of time! Â It's still a lot of pieces - hopefully I can get them sewn together today! My deadline [...]
Friday I got word that a precious and much anticipated new baby arrived! Â This is the baby that I have been working on a commission quilt for. Â To complete the top, I just needed to know her birthday...I embroidered her name and birth date in one corner. Saturday, I found the right thread, and basted [...]
A little time here and there, over the course of the week, and...four table runner tops are complete! Origins fabric, I love how fabric selections can make such a change! Freebird fabric, in simple, random strips. Â I actually enlisted Ella's help, my 10 year old, to cut random lengths from my strips. I'm also linking [...]
