Ok guys, you lucked out…I’m adding 1 more day to give folks a chance to win the Botany Jelly Roll! Seeing as I just got back into town last night, and I’m completely overwhelmed with a full schedule today, I won’t have time to select a random winner until TOMORROW, Monday 7/10. Just click leave […]
Babes In Beachland
Wrapping up a bittersweet last day at the beach…I should be packing, but instead I’m stealing a few moments to post a couple of favs from the week. So sad to be headed home, but I must admit, I need another vacation already…from my kids! Aw, that face! Kid bowling was a blast! And then […]
Jelly Roll Giveaway
Time to celebrate…and de-stash. In honor of my first online quilt pattern sale (woohoo!), as well as 2500 hits on my blog (can’t believe it!), I’ve decided to do a giveaway! I have more fabric than I can keep up with anyway…SO, here’s the deal: follow my blog and comment on this post, and I’ll […]
2 Quilts this Week!
What a week! I finished piecing a custom 68 X 90 Fruit By The Foot quilt for an Etsy customer in NYC- quilting it this weekend and shipping it off as soon as the Post Office is open (holiday weekend = Eek! I need to get it out!). Also, this heirloom quilt was passed to […]
Sampler Block #2- 9 Patch
Just finished my 9 patch block for the We Can Do It Sampler. I love it! Would love to do a whole quilt outta this. Not only do I love the block, but I love how every single one of the fabrics was added to my stash at a different time, from a different place, […]
Quilt Cards- Better Than Hallmark
I really really hate buying greeting cards, and honestly (ssshhhhh) I almost hate receiving them too! $3, $4, even $5 for a commercialized printed card from a factory, written by who knows? Could it be less personal? I feel like I could write a note on a Post-It and it would be more meaningful than […]
Embroidered 3-Ring Binder Baby Book
My 1 yo little squeeze toy has hit a few huge milestones this month so I figured I should pull out her baby book and add some updates. Opened up the keepsake box (dusty from how long it’s been!) and was delighted to remember that I’d actually made her baby book from scratch (back when […]
Everything’s Coming Up….Veggies
Just had to post an updated pic to brag to share since I’m really psyched about how it’s doing. Still can’t get over those zucchini, all by seed! Amazing! Can’t lie, I was pretty sure nothing would sprout. Silly me. Anyone else growing any good stuff out there, in between stitching, momming, working, and staying […]
We Can Do It Quilt Sampler
Just joined on for the “We Can Do It” Quilt Sampler over at Sewn. First block starts tomorrow so I need to nail down my fabric choices! Help me pick!!! Shopping ONLY from my stash this time. I know, I know, major self control, especially since I work at the raddest little modern fabric shop […]
Gifts from The Guild Gods
I visited the Columbine Quilt Guild potluck & stash sale this week, thanks to a sweet invite from a friend. Wowzers! It was old school sewing circle to the max. Dozens of adorable ladies, most at least twice my age, with so much knowledge (and stash!) to share. When I first walked in, bearing gifts […]
