I finished the second panel from Art Gallery fabrics and because much of the stitching is similar to the sheep quilt I recently posted, I won't fill this up with a lot of photos! Just wanted you to see it all done, and share a short video clip at the bottom of some stitching I… Continue reading Simply Sweet

Baa Baa Black Sheep
Soooo... I wanted to stray from the woodland animals baby quilt theme for a bit and do something fancier with more of a custom heirloom look and, of course, lots of white solid space. This minimalist style panel is one of three I found in the "Nest" collection from Art Gallery Fabrics. I love the… Continue reading Baa Baa Black Sheep
Wavy Lines with Clouds
Wavy lines and straight lines are popular on modern quilts and I like to find ways of embellishing them here and there to give a bit of extra interest to the overall look. I thought this cute baby quilt could use some clouds in the stitching, and rather than over think the shape and the… Continue reading Wavy Lines with Clouds
Smorgasbord
I haven't been writing but I have been quilting! I had a few projects to finish up for a Christmas market I'm going to, so thought I'd just get them done and then put them all together into one post. I don't generally like to go from market to market, but I do try to… Continue reading Smorgasbord
Sweet Dreams Little One
I figured I'd better post a new quilt sooner rather than later lest you all think I had lost myself in a pile of handmade bags ... This is the second baby quilt I've made with his particular fabric line and it never disappoints. The vintage floral look appeals to many people and the fabric… Continue reading Sweet Dreams Little One
Wooly Sheep Quilt
I quilted this sheep panel today and I used the large pebble with swirled centre design to make the wool look all curly and thick. I had tested a piece of fleece with this same stitching design because I thought I might use it instead of batting but, while the test came out fine, in… Continue reading Wooly Sheep Quilt
Playing with Owls
Owls are popular right now, especially for baby stuff, so I played with an idea I saw on Pinterest for a cushion cover with owls peeking in from the edges, and expanded it to baby quilt size. It seems that no matter how you make the owl bodies - with details or just simple shapes… Continue reading Playing with Owls
Butterfly Applique Baby Quilt
I just finished this bright and fun baby quilt with cool butterfly and flower appliques, so I wanted to share some pictures with you, as well as a new video showing parts of my process in getting this one made. I'm not including all the steps for applying the fusible web, cutting out the… Continue reading Butterfly Applique Baby Quilt
My new pin cushion (and a cute baby quilt…)
I needed a new pin cushion. Yes n-e-e-d-e-d. I was using some old thing that I recovered a while back and I didn't pay much attention to the fact that it was ugly as long as it worked. But then when I started using the pretty Clover flower head pins from my mom, they made… Continue reading My new pin cushion (and a cute baby quilt…)
Modern Baby Quilts
What a great way to use up strips of solid fabrics, have several areas to practice border designs, and still have open space to go a little wild! haha I totally grabbed this idea from someone else whose quilt appeared on Pinterest and if you've used Pinterest at all you know that tracking down random picture… Continue reading Modern Baby Quilts
