Mini Magda Wristlet!

I made the most darling little wristlet this last weekend for August’s Bag Day!  After the time-consuming Voyage Handbag last month, I picked an itty bitty wristlet this month and finished it just under 2.5 hours!  This is the Mini Magda by Oro Rosa Patterns!

Long Time Gone BOM WIP

This past weekend I got the bug to work on some really OLD work-in-progress (WIP) projects.  The Long Time Gone BOM is a pattern by Jen Kingwell and the block of the month was run by my friend and shop owner Pam Selkirk of Serendipity Woods. I finished Month 7 of 13ish months.

A few weeks ago, I got a large fat 16th bundle of Tana Lawn Liberty fabric.  Since the fabric is wider than normal width of fabric, the fat 16ths are about 9″x13″.  I got a rainbow bundle of 100 fat 16ths and I’ve added 10 additional prints to the bundle to make this epic quilt.

Longarming Mini Series – My Favorite Batting

For as long as I’ve been blogging, I haven’t ever talked about batting, much less my favorite batting.  When I started quilting, I picked up all sorts of different batting from Hancock Fabrics (RIP), Joanns, SR Harris, etc.  I didn’t really understand the differences between poly, cotton, wool, etc. I’m not going to go into the specifics of each type today, but I will tell...

Longarming Mini Series – Picking a Pantograph

As I’m catching up on longarming all of the quilt tops that I made while my machine was in storage, I realized there are quite a few things that I haven’t talked about on the blog about longarming.  Prepping your quilt for the longarmer is all detailed on the Longarm Quilting Services page, but for the pantograph, I have the customer select whichever one they...
