Two down - lots more to go.......



I had a few minutes to spare today so I finished up two of the quilted pillows for my daughters room. I still have a ton of things to do - including quilting the quilt, but it feels nice to have part of the project finished!



I went for a binding around each pillow - love, love, love the green and red. So cute!!



The pillows are packed with stuffing - I mean packed. I hate it when pillows die and...

On my back looking up!

looking up

When I start a new quilt I always take a minute to make sure I like what is going on from underneath the machine. It always helps when the fabric shows off the quilting and I am really excited about this quilt, really excited!!!

Almost done quilted pillows...............

These quilt little pillows to be are apart of my surprise. I used some of my scraps from my quilt top to make these cute little pillows. Of course they had to be quilted - I am really excited about them. I used a silver metallic thread for the quilting and I like how it turned out.

Sharon's Quilt

1

It's all in the family again! This time it is Sharon's (Em's sister) quilt. This is a cute quilt inspired by the quilt pattern "Everyday Best" by Piece O Cake. Sharon did a wonderful job piecing it and I was happy to quilt it. This was a simpler quilt job for me - I got it done in 5 hours.

Her fabric choices are great - I had a lot of fun with them. I chose a yellow thread (#420 So Fine) to...

Embracing Quilting

How do I even start? Since the first time I put together a pattern I have wanted to be known as the quilt pattern designer - I have had the goal to design fabric (for Moda, who else?) and we started this business with that thought in mind. I talked about my frustration hereand I had so many wonderful people comment back and give me great advice. It's been a long 9 months - all the while trying...

I am working on a little surprise

lili's quilt

This is a quilt that I am making for my daughter - I was hoping to finish the top while at the cabin with my Mom, but I underestimated how long it would take. Man, that sounds like me. I pulled the project out again and got the sashing done last night. It was my date with Bliss and Ruby - have I told you that I love Camille's fabric? Well - I do and her new lineis to die for! I can't wait for...
