I took a little weekend trip for a high school reunion (25 years since we graduated!!) with no husband and no kids this past weekend. I got to watch whatever I wanted to watch on TV and order room service and stitch hexies! I got a LOT of hexies stitched! 🙂 Kate Spain – Aria… Continue reading In Progress – Ten Year Plan Quilt
This quilt is the same two blocks over and over, so there will be quite a bit of chain piecing. I started on the half square triangles today. I matched up the 224 patterned squares with the 224 white squares and sewed all the seams. It turned out to be quite a pile! I clipped… Continue reading In Progress – Hugs & Kisses on the Grand Canal Quilt
I got my second block done for the Fat Quarter Shop 2016 Designer Mystery Block of the Month. Another quick one and I’m really enjoying working with the Little Miss Sunshine line from Lella Boutique! 🙂 I can’t wait for next month’s block! 🙂

It’s so easy to make super precise blocks using paper piecing, which makes my detail-oriented heart very happy. 🙂 Here are all… Continue reading In Progress – Summer Sampler 2016 – Block 10
A while back, I designed these two blocks in EQ7 and I finally got around to making some test blocks a couple of weeks ago: After the last quilt market, I bought a fat quarter bundle of the upcoming Grand Canal line by Kate Spain for Moda Fabrics and I had been searching for a… Continue reading In Progress – Hugs & Kisses on the Grand Canal Quilt
My sashing fabric arrived, so I was able to get the quilt top put together! I used Aqua Spot from the Vintage Picnic line by Bonnie & Camille for Moda Fabrics. I also bought Navy Cherries & Pears from the same line to use as my backing fabric and Small Red Gingham by Riley Blake… Continue reading In Progress – Stars & Stripes Quilt

I’m behind on my posting! I got this block done a few days ago, but never posted it. Time for block nine of my Summer Sampler 2016 quilt! This one is called Curves, for obvious reasons. These curved blocks are nerve wracking for me, but they’ve all seemed to come out looking pretty nice. I… Continue reading In Progress – Summer Sampler 2016 – Block 9
