A Virtual Quilting Bee block for Anina of Twiddletails. This was a fun block to create. Very flirty and romantic. I don’t use those types of fabrics in my quilts very often but I sure do love them. I’m enjoying this project because it’s stretching me to think outside what I normally do.

Virtual Quilting Bee – June
Shop Talk Friday – Denyse Schmidt + Erin McMorris
I composed a post every day this week. Unfortunately not a single one made it from brain to keyboard. Overcommitment on my part fueled the fire. I ALWAYS imagine I can accomplish a task more quickly than is in fact humanly possible. And goodness, for creative endeavors there’s always that last minute design crisis. I’ve [...]

Learning to Quilt – Part I: Books
I received this e-mail from April this morning:
“I have been an avid reader of your blog for the past few months and I just love your gorgeous creations. I have recently become interested in making a few quilts for myself. I grew up with several great-grandmothers who were hand quilters [...]
Bye, Bye Timtex
I’ve been in denial since Linda at CraftApple first broke the news to me. Out of production. Kaput. Timtex is no more. I’m hoarding the last of my supply, deciding which project is Timtex worthy. I feel like Elaine with her sponges. Timtex was the perfect product in my eyes. I’m still holding out a [...]

The Ginseng Collection, Joel Dewberry’s newest line of home dec cotton sateen. The burnt orange is absolutely mouth watering.
Shop Talk Friday. My attempt at balancing my blog between me creating and sharing and me trying to sell fabric on the internet. I love my blog just the way it is. Please don’t worry, I have [...]
Virtual Quilting Bee – May
Just a few days late. That’s how my weeks have been going. I like to be on time. On time for the ferry. On time for airplane rides. On time for school meetings. On time for lunch with a friend. Being late does not sit well with me. This is the 8th end-of-school year rush [...]
