May 3, 2019
Hey friends! I’m dusting off the ol’ blog today to share all the details of my latest finish, a gorgeous patriotic quilt that I made as part of the Fat Quarter Shop’s “Classic and Vintage” pattern series.

So I jumped at the chance to sew along with FQS for this new block in their Classic & Vintage series—I had a feeling this block would make the  ...

December 29, 2017
Merry Christmas, y’all! I am so excited because this year I actually finished TWO Christmas quilts before Christmas Day. That’s especially impressive because 1) I’ve only completed a total of 3 quilts ever, and 2) I started both of these quilts after Thanksgiving. Yay me! The first quilt I finished was my Figgy Tree Farm Block Swap quilt. Pattern: Tree Farm by The Pattern Basket Fabrics for blocks, border, and binding: Assorted Fig Tree & Co.
