I finally have the quilt top done for my latest little quilt. I started these blocks a few years ago and they were my first attempt at a Denyse Schmidt style improv log cabin. I was very happy with some of them, okay with others, and down right unhappy with others. I was frustrated by […]

I’ve had a few more beautiful fabrics come my way. It’s so hard to pass up a good deal and a fabric that unexpectantly comes back on the market. I found some of Heather Ross’ Mendicino prints that I needed to have. Just a bit, but it makes me happy. And there’s a few lines

Still trying to do a little sewing even with the newborn babe. She keeps me busy but I try to take advantage of nap time. The other day I was finally able to work on the block for the Bee Modern swap for January. We had the most delicious fabrics and are all making a
Well I’ve been on the computer all morning anyway, so I figured I should update my newest creations. I’ve been a little behind because my laptop is pretty much dead and I’m having to use my husband’s computer…but that’s a whole other story and the good news is that a new laptop is on its

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
