String Theory Quilt Top

I made up another fun and simple quilt top over the weekend.  This one used some of the stranger things in my fabric stash.  The pieced section of the quilt was made by string piecing some of the silks and brocades from my stash.  The background fabric for this project was the leftover linen blend…

Rosalie in Progress

I’ve got a quilt project I should be working on right now.  It’s the Rosalie pattern, which is a super great way to make a quilt with hexies without having to do y-seams. I’m even using it as a stash buster, cutting the large hexies out of all different fat quarters. But for some reason,…

Half Moon Colorist Quilt

I decided a while ago that I wanted to tackle a quilt with curves, but hadn’t been brave enough to do it.  I’m pretty decent a sewing a straight line by now, but how on earth you get curves to work still seemed a little beyond me.  Then I started sewing a few clothes.  I…

My newest project is using more stuff from my…

(Not) Purdue Quilt Top Finished!

I’m super excited that I’ve got the quilt top for my little sister Samantha done!  As you may recall, she wanted a “Purdue quilt, that wasn’t really a Purdue quilt.” My solution? Use Purdue colors in a fun scrappy pattern. I ended up using the Squares & Strips quilt top tutorial from Cluck, Cluck, Sew!…
