Earlier this week, I took all the pieces of my picnic quilt out to my "design wall". So close to being a completed top! I just received my shipment of Essex linen in Flax to use for the middle section. I think it will give it a nice break from the busyness of the top and bottom panels. And I finally decided on the third game board! Actually, I let my husband pick and he decided on a game I had never heard of before, Nine Men's Morris. I really liked that it was an old game and … [Read more...]
WIP Wednesday: Return of the Picnic Quilt
I had to search WAY back in the archives to find a post about this Picnic Quilt. It has long been in my head and I've been intimidated by it. Well after 6 months of doing other sewing and not worrying about this one, it doesn't seem so tough anymore. I love it when that happens! For those following this project, I still have two swoon blocks, 2 flying geese panels, and 1 game board to make before piecing everything together... and before piecing the recycled jeans backing. First thing to get … [Read more...]

Barn Door Quilt Finish
Before I show you the boor door quilt, I want to send a huge thanks to Sarah from Sarah Quilts for hosting this quilt along. Her design was amazing and I had a blast creating it! If you are looking for new project inspiration you should definitely check out her blog. When I was walking around to find a location for this quilt's photoshoot, I realized that this barn door has the same lines. So of course, I started off the pictures there. This is the first quilt I've quilted without … [Read more...]
My Big (Little) Announcement
It has been much much much too long since I've blogged, but I have an exciting reason for being away... I'm pregnant! This is an announcement I made that got vetoed. But since this is my blog, I thought I'd share it here :) Apparently pregnancy is really hard and I've been on the couch for the last 3ish months. It was a strange thing to be so engrossed in quilting and then one day just be totally unable to do it or even think about it. It's been so hard to be away from all of you … [Read more...]
Quilting Valentines Printable
I'm not a person who is super into Valentines Day. However, I will never turn down the chance to tell someone they are awesome. And if it is in the form of bad pun, then even better. So I was thinking: how do you tell a fellow quilter Happy Valentines Day? How about with some cheesy (in a good way) little cards to give out to friends! I created these 3 Valentines in a print version or you can download them each in a digital version, perfect for emailing. I hope you will share them and … [Read more...]
