A Second Fanfare Quilt
As you know, I just made a quilt for my cousin Susan’s baby out of some lovely Fanfare flannels from Cloud 9. Because of the pieces required for the pattern, I needed to size up a lot of the yardage I bought. This gave me a fair amount of leftover flannel with no home. My…
Read MoreA Baby Quilt for Susan
My cousin Susan is having a baby! And today I’m super thrilled to share with you the baby quilt I made for her baby girl (coming this spring). I also had enough leftover fabric to make a fun little Dresden plate pillow for decoration. This quilt really started with the fabric. I fell in love…
Read MoreI Finished That Halloween Quilt
I finally finished that Halloween quilt that I started in October. I got the top done before Halloween, but I didn’t take the time to get it it quilted and bound. So, thanks to this #sew365 resolution, I got caught up on enough other projects, and had no excuse not to finish the quilt. The…

If you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you’ve probably noticed the #sew365 hashtag I’ve been using recently. I’ve decided that this year, I’m going to make more of an effort to work on my sewing projects every day. And so far so good. In the past week, I’ve managed to finish the piecing on…

Read MoreVirtual Craft Night Ups My Progress
Thanks to 2 evenings of Virtual Craft Night over the long holiday, I’ve made amazing progress on my Christmas Crazy Quilt. I’ve managed to piece together, embellish and faux sash the top left quarter of my quilt. On top of that, I have been able to get several other sections in progress, including these 2…
Read MoreChristmas is Coming Along
My Christmas crazy quilt is starting to come along. Which is really quite surprising as I haven’t been working on it anywhere near as much as I should. With my steampunk crazy quilt, I spent about an hour or so each evening, piecing my blocks and then spent another couple hours each night working on…
Read MoreChristmas Sewing
It’s November already, which means time to start on my Christmas sewing. OK, so I started this project a couple weeks ago. But in my defense, I am making myself another embellished crazy quilt, so I expect it to take a while to put together. Actually, I expect to be working on it until after…
