closeup of 12" block

After about a year long hiatus, I finally got back in my sewing space a couple weeks ago.  Granted, that was mostly to convert the space to do crafting with Milli, but that meant cleaning up in the sewing area.  And somehow, the easiest way to clean up my sewing projects is to finish them,…

spooky crazy quilt section

I’m making progress on my spooky crazy quilt, but most of the work I’ve done in the last week has been hand work, so it doesn’t feel like the same kind of progress I get when I finish a new block. I currently have 3 sections pieced together, and I now have the hand stitching…

Anna’s Crazy Christmas Blocks – A Progress Post

It looks like I am a bad influence on Anna. I’ve convinced her to try her hand an making crazy patch blocks, and I have to say that I am impressed with her progress so far. Her blocks remind me a lot of the ones in my first crazy quilt. She told me that I…

Crazy Quilting

In the last week, with the cold weather moving in, I’ve been avoiding my sewing space. It’s in the basement, and it’s awfully cold down there. But I didn’t want to be a complete slacker, so I’ve been doing some handwork instead. I have two blocks for my latest crazy quilt that are “finished.” I…

Works in Progress

This week has been slow for sewing progress, but I’m a little over halfway through the blocks for my 3rd border on the Rabbit Medallion quilt. You can see all of my progress through the second border on Monday’s post. And I’m making a little more progress on my Easter crazy quilt. I’ve done a…
