Pineapple Quilt
Thanks to the massive basement cleanup, I’m back to sewing when I have the time. My 1st completed project is a pineapple quilt that I purchased fabrics for several years ago. It’s based on a mini quilt by Lori over at Crossquilt, which I fell in love with when she shared her project in 2015.…

I’m super proud of myself because I made a lot of progress on Mil’s baby communique quilt this week. One whole side of the quilt has been pieced together for about a week and I had all of the solid blocks for the other side sewn together. All I had to do was to put…

It’s slow with the tiny human as an assistant, but I managed to piece together the top left section on my communique baby quilt. It measures 22×22-inches, which isn’t much, but it makes Milli very happy. I’m hoping that I can distract her with this finished section while I work on the next one. What…
