Today I want to share with you a pillow that I made this summer that has recently been published in International Quilt Scene Magazine by Interweave Press. I’m a sucker for anything Nautical and I hope you are too. Oh I just love this one! If you’ve followed me for even a little bit, you’ll […]
Well I did it. I finished my pillow for round 9 of the Pillow Talk Swap. You have all seen pictures of the progress but it is officially complete and may well end up in the hands of its new owner today. I sent it off last week to my partner and I can’t wait

It’s late on a Saturday night here in Indiana, but that just means I actually have a minute to myself. And so I’m sharing that minute with you all. I decided this week to try to do a few things that were just for fun craft/sewing wise. Sometimes with all of the deadlines and crazy

Well I have my sewing room back and it’s all nice and tidy…for now! I’m making an effort to keep it that way and not get out all the projects that I have at one time. As soon as I got it back in order, I set to work on some blocks for two of
