Carolina Lily Block With Fat Quarter Shop

March 9, 2020
Hey friends! I’m back on my blog today with a fun little block I had the opportunity to piece for the Fat Quarter Shop’s Classic and Vintage pattern series. Though I’ve always loved the traditional Carolina Lily block, I haven’t made one yet, so I was excited to have the chance to sew along with FQS and practice my applique skills. As we all know, pulling fabric for a new project is half the fun of quilting–maybe even more than half! I knew I wanted to go  ...

Pattern: Tiffany by Villa Rosa Designs Fabrics: Poetry by 3 Sisters and Lorraine by American Jane (blocks, borders, and bindings) Backing fabric: Flannels from Joann Fabrics (on sale!) Batting: Hobbs 80/20 (provided  ...

Hunter’s Star Mini with Fat Quarter Shop

February 16, 2018
Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing the mini quilt that I made using the Fat Quarter Shop’s new twist on a classic block, the Hunter’s Star. The walls of my sewing room are BARE, y’all. I mean, seriously bare. But I have been so busying sewing quilts and the occasional pillow cover that I just haven’t had a chance to make some minis for my wall. 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  ...
