Comparing Pineapple Rulers
I've spent several days comparing two pineapple rulers. One, the Creative Grids Pineapple Ruler, I have used before and really liked. It recently came to my attention that Bloc Loc makes a Pineapple Ruler as well, and on impulse I ordered one. I'll give you my opinions in this post, which is very photo heavy.…

Stars and Baskets Off to be Quilted
Remember my Stars and Baskets Quilt? I had not gotten around to having it quilted, and when I decided that it would be next in the queue, I had second thoughts about its size. Without borders it was coverlet size, about 76" square. I really wanted something that would cover the entire top of the…

Every time a goal is reached, a new setting alternative is released. I wasn't super interested in making the entire quilt, but when I saw this table runner…

Snowed In
I woke up to a winter wonderland Sunday morning. It had quietly snowed all night long, and our power had been out from midnight to about 6:00 AM. This was the view out my bedroom door. The trees were so beautiful with their branches all decorated with snow. But our driveway was somewhere under all…

Too Pretty Not to Share
This was just too pretty not to share. I had this little Bear Paw table topper quilted nearly a year ago, and just had not gotten around to binding it. Valentine's Day is fast approaching and I thought it would be just the thing for a pretty tablescape. My problem was the red/pink is kind…

Aren't these fabrics perfect? Perfect for me anyway. I've been talking about the new project I have had in mind to get started on, and finally have something to show for it. I've made a couple of test blocks and am excited to get going on the project. The pattern is American Pie by Miss…
