I can't believe I didn't share about this experience earlier! I've gotten into a new publication, and it is so beautiful! I wrote an essay about Kawandi Quilting and took some photos of my process. The wonderful women at Curated Quilts turned it into such a lovely article - I'm awestruck and proud at the … Continue reading Kawandi Quilting in Curated Quilts
I've been busily working my way towards earning my Bachelor's Degree - officially my longest running UFO. I went to college immediately after high school, but never finished. I've dabbled a bit here and there, but finally decided to push through and earn my final 10 classes with SNHU. Class #4 has been Creative Nonfiction, … Continue reading A Desirable Patina
AccuQuilt has just released the most adorable mini Christmas stocking die. I was happy to test it out for them, and I decided to collaborate with my in-house sashiko master to make some sashiko mini stockings to use as gift tags. This was a great little project - each tag took about 20 minutes to … Continue reading Sashiko Mini Stockings with AccuQuilt
Good morning! I hope everyone is having a lovely summer. Mine has been rather more stuffed than I am accustomed to, which is fun, but not conducive to regular blogging. I've embarked on a 100 days of stitching project and I wanted to share it with you. I won't be sharing daily updates, as that … Continue reading 100 Days of Stitching
A few months ago my liaison at AccuQuilt showed me one of their upcoming dies - it was a little birdhouse with a bird on it. I am a huge fan of wild birds. I love to watch them come to my feeders in my yard. Watching them hop around the trees, and hearing the … Continue reading Bird & Birdhouse Die with AccuQuilt

Since I was introduced to it by my Quilt Lab cohorts back in January of 2021 I've done a bunch of research, made a few things, and taught a class! I was hesitant to teach a class in something that is … Continue reading Kawandi Style Quilting

We will be meeting monthly via Zoom, on the second Wednesday of the month at 7 PM, using Sue Spargo's Creative Stitching … Continue reading Announcing: Creative Hand Stitching Journey
I feel like it has been a minute since I shared about my watercolor painting. I can't remember how much I have shared, but I have a nice project that ends in a quilt. I signed up to take a watercolor class, for college credit, at my local community college. There is a weekly meeting … Continue reading Regatta Mini Quilt

I am very proud to introduce you to my Laundry Day quilt, which you can find in "Let's Get Scrappy" by Annie's Publishing.

My latest handwork project is finished! I made a Moravian Star with the new English Paper Piecing Qube from Accuquilt.. Having a die cutting system to make these means I get to choose the weight of my paper pieces! I used card stock for sturdiness, and I couldn't be happier with my project. This die … Continue reading Moravian Star with Accuquilt
