Here’s a sneak peak at my large string quilt. The blocks are 12.5″ square and I need to make 35 of them! Crazy! And I have a deadline that’s a little nuts….but I work well under pressure. The fabrics have been fun to work with and as always there is that bit of doubt that […]

I finally made the crib skirt (which was loosely inspired by some current Pottery Barn Kids bed skirts for kids’ beds that look like tutus!) out of a sea foam green organza. It’s kind of hard to get a good picture though. 🙁 But trust me, it’s super cute! I also made two crib sheets

I’ve finished my last row for the Row Robin Quilt Swap. This time I worked on a row for Carrie’s flower quilt. I didn’t mind working on this one and came up with my idea fairly quickly and thankfully had just the right amount of the right fabrics. It’s amazing what working with some favorite
