A Baby Sized Communique Quilt Design
One of my lovely readers recently asked about making the Communique Quilt in a baby or crib sized version. So, because I love creating layouts for quilts, I’ve come up with an altered version of the original throw pattern that is perfect for a baby quilt. For this design, I started with my original Communique…

I may have just finished a quilt top, but that doesn’t mean I’m planning on taking a break from my quilting. I’ve already got another (allbeit much smaller) project in the works. This one will actually be small enough that I’m hoping to attempt to machine quilt it myself, using my sewing machine. This particular…
Read MoreStill Going Crazy
With all the fun, exciting things going on in my life, I’ve been quite a slacker on all of my crafting and sewing projects, including my quilts.
