Rabbit Medallion Quilt – Center & 1st Border

By Andrea | November 3, 2014 |

A few weeks ago, I decided what I wanted to do with the Susybee Bunny Friends Bert & Beatrice Quilt Panel that was hanging out in my stash. I absolutely love how fun this bright bunny print panel is.  I designed a medallion quilt based on the center of the panel. I’m now in the…

I feel like I’ve made a lot of progress in the last week. I finished all the blocks for the Christmas quilt I’m making with the left over fabric from my Christmas Crazy Quilt. Then I got those blocks put together for a finished top, pieced the back, and quilted it. Now all that’s left…

Blogger’s Quilt Festival – Scrappy Quilt Entry

By Andrea | October 26, 2014 |

I’m super excited to be participating in my 2nd Blogger’s Quilt Festival. This year I’ve decided to enter my Christmas Crazy Quilt in the scrappy quilt category.  I absolutely love this quilt. It’s got a fabulous vintage Christmas feel. That vintage feel, started with my discovery of the Christmas Emporium fabric panel from Wilmington Prints.…

Easter Quilt Fabric and Embellishment Selections

By Andrea | October 24, 2014 |

It’s not even Halloween yet, and I’m already thinking about Easter. That probably seems odd to most people, but as a quilter, I’ve learned to think ahead about holidays. Some projects come together really quickly, but others take much longer – so I like to start early when I can. With the completion of my…

Nothing completed this week, but I made some progress in using up my scrap Christmas fabric. I made a couple of Christmas ornaments that match my quilt, and pulled left over scraps for a second, simpler quilt for the couch. I’m also working on picking out blocks to go in the bunny medallion quilt, as…

Using Up Christmas Scraps

By Andrea | October 20, 2014 |

Once I finished up my Christmas Crazy Quilt last week, I realized that I had a ridiculous amount of scraps left over from that quilt, so I’m using up my scraps in the best way I know how – more crazy quilt goodness. To start, I was inspired by Margreet de Reus’s Christmas Mobile Ornaments…

It’s Christmas in October!

By Andrea | October 13, 2014 |

Ok, it’s not really Christmas, but I’m totally ready for Christmas now. I finished my Christmas crazy quilt this weekend. It seems like it’s been raining constantly for days, here. I hope to get a few more pictures once the weather gets a little nicer. But in the mean time, here’s what that quilt looks…

I actually feel like I made some progress this week! I finished my String Theory quilt. And I also finished the top of my Christmas crazy quilt, got it quilted, and am in the process of binding it. I want to wait to share the whole quilt with you when it’s done, but here’s a…

Works in Progress

By Andrea | October 1, 2014 |

Everything seems slow this week in the world of getting things done, but I did get a  quilt back from the quilter last week. Designs by Laura Jo sent me back my String Theory quilt! So Saturday night I set about making a scrappy binding for the quilt from some more of my silk and…

Works in Progress

By Andrea | September 10, 2014 |

If you’ve stopped by the blog in the last couple of days, you’ll have seen that I’ve taken a bit of a break from my quilting projects to sew up a new top. I’m also working on another non-quilt project.  I’m currently in the process of making the Betty Bowler bag from Swoon Patterns. I’m…
