Ok Kids, Let’s Sew
Ok, girls, let's rev up our engines and plan to make this adorable quilt! Several of you guessed that this might be the pattern I was was going to be working on, and you were right. You also asked if you could sew along! Of course you can. It will be so much fun to…

Announcing A Sew Along
A couple of my friends and I are going to be doing a little sew along in the coming weeks, and I am pretty excited about it! Would you like to guess what it might be? Take a guess and on Wednesday I will announce the name of the first person to correctly predict just…

BOM Rehab Monday
This is all I have to show for myself. One block. The lower one in red, yellow and green. All I have been doing lately is working or chasing after the baby. I got up at 6:00 AM on Sunday morning and staggered down to the studio to make the third block in the Designer…

I’m Weak
Oh dear. I know I said I wasn't going to start anything new. I know I said I have way too many UFOs and need to just focus on one of them and finish something. Here it is, June 28, as I write this. The Another Year of Schnibbles deadline is the 30th. I have…

Full Tilt Boogie to the 4th
I gotta get it done, I just gotta. The 4th of July will soon be upon us, and I surely would like to have this on my table a bit in advance of the holiday. Finished the quilting on my Doc Schnibble. Well, it isn't the greatest quilting job in the world, and in fact…

Did You Know?
The new Miss Rosie's Quilt Company patterns are now available! The pattern on the far left is called Bounce (sorry, I cut off the bottom in my excitement to take the picture), and was pieced by my friend Thelma (Cupcakes 'n' Daisies), and quilted by the amazing Linda Hrcka (Quilted Pineapple). I cannot wait to…
