Quilts
It’s the second week of the Triangle Quilt Along over at The Sassy Quilter. This week’s goal is to get all of our triangles cut, and I am happy to report that I am (shockingly) still on schedule. Of course the fact that getting each part of the project done on time gets me a…
My weekly update on projects progress. Finishes This week I made myself a wonderful wearable muslin of Victory Patterns Ava dress. I’m glad I did, as my “for real” version will need to be several sizes smaller. Finished Quilt Tops: No quilting has been done on any of my previously finished tops. And the gift…
I finally got around to finishing my bird quilt top last night. And I love how it turned out. I found it really fun to make this quilt with a simple neutral color palette, with the pops of color from the bird print. And I can’t even tell you how much I love the newspaper…
My aunt Susan recently participated in Walk to Emmaus. As part of the retreat, her friends and family were asked to send letters, cards, and such for her to open throughout her time there. For those of you who don’t know my aunt Susan, she loves quilting and embroidery. As a matter of fact, if…

My weekly update on projects progress. Finishes No finishes this week, but I did make some progress on a project or two. Finished Quilt Tops: No quilting was done on any of my finished tops. I’ve been spending my time working on piecing this week. Quilt Tops in Progress: Still no progress on the Impromptu-along…
My weekly update on project progress. Finishes Not a single finish in the last week. But in my defense, my brother-in-law got married, and that cut into my sewing time. Ok… totally not an excuse, I just wanted to share that my husband’s brother got married. You can check out pictures and such in yesterday’s…
Recently there have been several great posts around the blogosphere about the worth of quilts, most notably the No Value Does Not Equal Free post by Molli Sparkles and his follow up post Placing a Value on Your Quilts which appeared on SewMamaSew.
