This month’s personal challenge has really been on my heart recently, and now that it’s in the forefront of my mind, I’m seeing it everywhere and it’s driving me CRAZY. Perhaps you’re feeling the same way. For so many of us, the internet holds a vast amount of our daily attention. We work online, pay […]
Beyond the Block this Month
I don’t know where January and February went. I really don’t. If you see them, can you tell them I need those weeks back? This year is absolutely flying by. Between my two little sick buddies (we’re finally over our double dose of bronchiolitis and ear infections!), and a super secret quilty projects, I’m pretty […]
New Pattern, New Shop!
Hooray! I’m so excited for this day, you guys! I’ve been busy as a beaver working on a few fun projects, including a brand new pattern, and a brand new shop! Aw shucks, I feel like I’m all grown up now, with a fancy pants shopping cart ‘n all. The new pattern is the Tuileries […]
February Beyond The Block
It’s another month in The Sugar Block Club, and throughout the year, we’re stitching up pretty vintage blocks, cooking up tasty treats, and taking some time to go “beyond the block” to explore some ways in which we can challenge ourselves in a personal way. As I sat down to ponder the monthly personal challenges […]
BE…Intentional
I’ll be honest…I’ve been looking forward to writing this post for months. Today is January 1st- it’s the first day of a brand new year, and it’s also the launch my latest Sugar Block BOM series. Last year we had so much fun with our blocks and recipes, but as I started thinking about what […]
Sampler Layout Tutorial & An EQ7 Giveaway!
Hello friends! SO, the last Sugar Block pattern of the year is out, and now it’s time to get your quilt put together (unless you’re waiting to add even more blocks to your sampler, which is an excellent idea too!). I don’t know about you, but for me, when it comes time to stitch together […]
November Sugar Block & A Giveaway!
Can you believe it’s November already? Where has this year gone?! Seems like just yesterday that I announced my new Sugar Block sampler club, and now we’ve already stitched up 11 of this year’s 12 blocks. I’m sad that we only have 1 more block to go, but also really excited that soon we’ll all […]
Falling Into Sweetness
This was the week, at least here in Colorado, that literally turned summer into fall. I woke up one morning and suddenly the air is crisp, the leaves are turning…you can just smell the change…and the peach tartlets. Our family had such a great time baking up this month’s Sugar Block Club dessert- an elegant, […]
Sweet September
We’re on a real sugar high over here in Dock land! Celebrated a few birthdays last night at the best kind of crazy family party. Cake? Check. Pinata? Check. Late summer backyard shenanigans? Check. I’ve got some sweet new patterns out as well! First, a baby quilt called “Charmed” that’s just right for 2 charm […]
July in the Sugar Block Club
I hope you all are enjoying July’s Sugar Block! This month’s block is an extra scoop of sweetness. We do love us some frozen treats in this house, so we all agreed that ice cream cones would be featured in this month’s block. (I’ll have you know that all Sugar Blocks must meet the approval […]
