Well, I posted a sneak peak of the string quilt that I was working on before Easter. I did manage to finish it in time, but by the skin of my teeth. I even machine stitched the binding (something I’ve never done!) in order to finish in time. I was taking pictures of the quilt […]

Well I’ve been quite busy sewing away on the latest quilt. It’s a bit larger than I normally make, plus it’s a string paper pieced quilt. So that all adds up to a lot of work. Here’s a pic of all the blocks finished and ready to be sewn together. I’m actually much farther than
I took a break from my current quilt to work on the Blocks for Bee Modern for April. I’m not quite sure what is going on with February and March…we never received any fabric for those months. But maybe we will in April. That would be ironic wouldn’t it? Jane sent us authentic Japanese fabric

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

I mentioned last time that I’ve been a bit delayed in my monthly sewing because of all the moving around we have been doing to get ready for the baby. So I’ve finally caught up a little bit and some things to share with you. As part of the Bee Modern Quilt Group I am
