I stalled out on this quilt around the holidays, but I am so excited to have gotten the top completed!The body of the quilt is all scraps from this win, and I purchased the cream with a little brown flecking for the corners. I wanted something to tie it together but not quite solid, and [...]

I managed to get these quilted tonight. Fun and fast little doll quilts, these will be wrapped up and under the tree for our girls. Can you guess which one is for which of the girls? Ella, Emmalie and Sophia have numerous dollies, we even weeded out a few last month, they were happy to [...]

I just finished up cutting all my strips this morning. I probably could have finished yesterday, but I took a little slice off my index finger . . . that slowed me down - a lot! Watch those fingers people! I just got caught up I guess, thinking I had it all together and wham, [...]

I'm cutting!I know that I mentioned a coin quilt . . . but a block I drafted a while back really needs to be created. I will share more later :)Amy

As usual I had drawn up my own plans for a tree skirt. Then I had to sit down and figure out how make it! Realizing how rusty my geometry skills are, I turned to google (love google!). If I'm working on something small, trial and error works. But this time, I didn't have enough [...]

Well just a little :) Fat Quarter Shop has Christmas fabrics on sale, and I have been wanting to make a new tree skirt for a couple of years. So I just did it! :) I drafted it out already, I just need to get a few other projects off my list before I start. [...]

Quilting on corduroy has been fun! Really, I'm just getting started, but it feels nice :)What are you up to?

Happy October! It is feeling more and more fallish around here :) Usually by the end of the month we have had at least one decent snow storm - not sure we are ready for it, but winter will be here before fall is officially over! I have been a bit cryptic the last week [...]

I have a finish at last! I've been calling this my "Nod to Random" - what do you think?I'm really looking forward to working on the cancer quilt - it will be a simple and hopefully quick finish :) Did I tell you that they were giving those kits away for people to just bring [...]

Here's the mess that I have created for myself! Tons of tiny hourglass blocks :) I really have had fun working with them, there's just lots to work with. And here's the layout:I had considered making it random, but with only 4 different blocks, it wouldn't end up very random. And I am a concrete [...]

I have spent a good chunk of time yesterday and today pinning. Pinning while watching the Olympics! Good clean fun - now I just need to peel myself away from the tube and get to the sewing machine.There's about 150 sets awaiting sewing - I like to keep everything at the same stage of "production." [...]

First off - Hello to all of you who have visited via Quilting Bloggers! I will have to go check out more of your blogs :)I kept two baggies full of tiny triangles from when Jenna was cutting the corners off of her snowballs. I just couldn't watch all those beautiful scraps go to waste! [...]
