Flower Patch Quilt Along Show and Tell

Block pictures are starting to show up  for my Flower Patch Quilt Along. I am so excited to see the use of so many great fabrics and how each person brings their own style to my flower block. It has been so fun. I am currently still at 4 blocks, so don't feel bad if you haven't started yet - there is still time to catch up. The pdf pattern is available here and you can join the Flickr Group her...

Father's Day...


I just wanted to share a video that means a lot to me. I have been blessed with an amazing dad who always taught me the importance of having faith in God. He has been the best dad any girl could ask for. I also have been blessed to have married my best friend and amazing father to our children. I just want to take this time to honor the men in my life that mean the world to me.

It's my turn..


The super talented Amy of Diary of a Quilter is hosting this awesome quilting bee.  I was asked to contribute a block design for this virtual quilting bee and I am so happy to be a part of this.  She has had several other contributors before me - you can see all of the blocks here. It was fun drawing up an 8 inch block design and I really loved how mine turned out. If wishes were fishes right now,...

Helen's Quilt finished

Okay, first I have to apologize for not getting a picture of this whole quilt.  It was huge - really big.  And, by the time I was ready to take pictures I realized that it is possible that a certain 2 year old threw away my camera - ugh!  Anyway, you have to suffer through phone pictures on this one, sorry.

Progress on my quilt along.....

Block #3

That is awesome! It is not too late to...

A Quilting Life... Giveaway and Book Tour

A Quilting Life

It is my turn for Sherri's Book Tour.  I met Sherri about 3 years ago when she had me quilt for her.  I looked back at some of the quilting I did for her and I really can not believe it has been three years.  The quilting I did three years ago is so different from what I do now.
Sherriis a very talented person and I am so glad that I have been blessed to know her. She has pieced quilts for me, and...

a little sneak

 If you have been following me on Instagram, you would know that I recently finished one of my projects. It's one of those quilts that I can't share right now - so I am just going to tease you with some of my sneak peeks. 





It was such a fun quilt to quilt up, and I really can't wait until I can share the whole quilt with you. Until then, I hope you enjoy these pictures. You can follow me on...

A little more info...


Okay, since this is my first quilt along, I admit that I am not that organized. So when I received some questions today from some of you I realized that I need to be a little more clear on the plan. First off, Flower Patch is not paper pieced and while there are a lot of pieces in the block, it is doable for all you piecers out there. The plan is to make 1,2 or 3 blocks in one week. You can join...

Flower Patch Quilt Along 1 
Hi everyone! As you can see I am keeping busy! I just finished one of my personal quilts and sadly I won't be sharing the finished quilt for a while, but in the mean time I have been wanting to make one of my patterns again. Flower Patch is still one of my favorite patterns, it is so fun to piece! So, I figured it would be fun to get a group going to see all the fun blocks and quilts that come...

Market Recap - Part 2

Okay, so Friday was my day to go to Market. After our flight from Vegas, Clint and I drove from Seaside, Oregon to Portland. It took about an hour and a half to get there and the whole time I was so nervous. I don't know why I do this to myself, but I get so worked up about thinking that I shouldn't go, or that I don't belong at Market. I guess I just feel more comfortable at home, blogging is so...
