Spools Blocks
I am coming along with my Gentle Arts spools blocks. Still waiting for the baby monitor to arrive, so my sewing is happening on the kitchen table with Eva trying to help me out. They come together really fast, so I will finish them in no time. Most readers have referred to this block as…

Made in China
I have been a pretty loyal Rowenta customer for years. I go through irons really fast, due to keeping them on for hours at a time, and steaming the dickens out of things. A good iron lasts me a year, maybe two, and then I need to replace it. My last Rowenta, gosh, I bet…

Drat, Foiled Again
My intention was to get this finished for Sara and give it to her for her birthday Sunday, but as you can plainly see, I failed to accomplish that goal. Several things went wrong. Mainly, I discovered that I had made seven of the blocks with a pure white fabric. The other thirteen blocks appear…

Channeling Pioneer Woman
I totally channeled the Pioneer Woman this weekend. Mother's Day and Sara's birthday fell on the same day, so we did a dual celebration. I have both of Ree Drummond's cookbooks, and have had pretty good success with her recipes. The celebration dinner was at my house, so I elected to make Ree's recipe for…

PamkittyPower
Remember these? I had so much fun playing around with the red and pinks in the first "PamkittyMorning" collection designed by Pam Vieria-McGinnis and Holly Holderman for Lakehouse fabrics. There were dozens of prints in the line, and at least five or six different colorways. If you liked yellows and greens, you were all set. …

Conflicted
This weekend I worked on a little of this and a little of that. I couldn't seem to figure out just what I wanted to do. I am excited to make more pineapple blocks, so I started six more. My alternate blocks for the Blogger Girls BOM are on my mind, so I worked on…

Ananas Rouge
That would be Red Pineapple, my homage to French General fabrics, their reds in particular. It seems that there are a lot of folks working on Pineapple quilts lately! I shamelessly copied Cathy (Quilting on Main Street), her colors and her method. Thelma has been working on a foundation pieced version of her own, but…

Blogger Girls BOM–Block 5
I loved making these blocks. They are my favorite in the series so far! I think they came out quite different from each other, which was my plan. This project is coming together in a way that is making me super happy, and exceeding my expectations. I knew I was in for a treat, as…

Hat Trick
Hello beautiful. This is Hat Trick, a Schnibbles pattern by Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's Quilt Company, and the Schnibbles of the Month chosen by Sherri and Sinta for the Another Year of Schnibbles Program. I loved making this little table topper in the summery fabrics called Noteworthy, designed by Sweetwater for Moda. The fabrics…

Achoo
Oh yeah. That's me all right. Spring is here. Whoopee. I know I was extolling the virtues of this glorious season in a recent post, but there is one big draw back all right. How many times can you sneeze in a row and not have your heart stop? Well, at least 10, I can…
