Happy Friday before Black Friday! Do you know what you are getting for the lucky quilter in your life? I decided to compile a list of the 7 things that I couldn’t live without in my sewing studio! Plus it’s before Black Friday or Cyber Monday so you can still be on the lookout for some awesome deals!
It’s been a crazy week to try to get all of my spring market quilts off to Island Batik to get photographed! I’m so excited about these new patterns, but I can’t quite share them until May! It’s so far away, but I know it’ll be here before I know it. Today, I’m super excited to share the Holiday Gifts to You Blog Hop schedule!...
Happy 100th Friday Foto Fun! I can’t believe I’ve been blogging and doing the linky party for so long! This Friday I wanted to share my top 7 takeaways from Fall Market and Threads of Success. Threads of Success was put on by Quilts Inc. for aspiring fabric designers, pattern designers, authors, teachers, etc that wanted to break into the quilting industry. It took place...
Today, I am so excited to say that Friday Foto Fun is BACK and I get to share another new pattern! This quilt is the second of two brand new quilt patterns to be released for Fall Market. It’s called Square Trickster since there are interlocking squares throughout the quilt. The quilt used Northern Lights from Island Batik! Northern Lights is a Winter 2019 fabric...

We’re moving to Albuquerque! This was obviously not planned as I JUST purchased a longarm and got it set up at the end of June. This is also the reason that I’ve been a little behind replying to emails, posting on social media, and the general lack of sewing anything! It got announced earlier this week, and I can finally share it with you! So...

This month’s Island Batik Challenge is Artsy Fartsy! The task is to use any fabric art/non-traditional quilting/sewing/thread painting technique using 3 Aurifil thread weights. The fabrics, batting, and thread featured in this post were given to me by Island Batik, Hobbs Batting, and Aurifil!
This is one of those weeks where I wonder, “How is it already Friday?! What happened?” Work has been so crazy lately that things have kind of gotten away from me. Sometimes it’s just exhausting, and I need to remember to give myself the grace to relax and recharge. There is no need to work myself to the point of a mental breakdown. There are...
Well, saying this was an eventful week is the understatement of the year. On Tuesday, my husband and I made an emergency trip down to Dallas as we got photos via text that looked like a horror film from my grandma’s apartment.
