Magnificent Minis Challenge! (Friday Foto Fun #71)

The 2019 Island Batik Ambassador program officially kicked off earlier this month!  We got our boxes a little earlier this year and I had to tape my unboxing video rather than wait for a live reveal because I was just TOO excited to see what was in our boxes!  I posted the video to my Facebook page earlier this month, but in case you missed...

Ornament Mania! (Friday Foto Fun #65)

Happy Friday on this first Friday of 2019!  I hope everyone’s year is off to a great start!  Over the winter holiday, I got OBSESSED with making no-sew ornaments.  I have been a part of the Ornament Girls Club since August when I bought and created the Pineapple ornament.  Since then, I haven’t made the time to make the ornaments until this break. Here’s the...

Whimsical and Wonky Challenge Part 1 (Friday Foto Fun #62)

This month’s Island Batik Challenge is to create a quilt that is Whimsical and Wonky.  I decided to split my post into two parts due to the holidays, and I haven’t quite finished the quilt yet.  The fabrics featured in this post were given to me by Island Batik.  In celebration of the end of the 2018 Monthly Color Challenge tomorrow (the setting instructions are...

Cozy Cabin: Log Cabin Challenge!

This month’s Island Batik Challenge is to create a quilt that incorporates log cabins or a twist on log cabins.  The fabrics featured in this post were given to me by Island Batik.  I must admit that I have never made a quilt with log cabins as I have previously found them to not be that exciting (*ducks from the firing squad*).  I have been...

Frame It Up goes to Market!

There are so many things to share in the next two weeks!  The first thing I’m sharing is that my Frame It Up pattern has been updated to be made with Fat Quarters and will be at Fall Market! This quilt is 54″x72″ and was made with 12 Fat Quarters from the Paisley Park collection by Island Batik!  For my shop owner friends, you can order...

Needle, Paper, Scissors Challenge!

This month’s Island Batik Challenge is to create a quilt that is either foundation paper pieced or English paper pieced (EPP).  The fabrics featured in this post were given to me by Island Batik.  I have a love-hate relationship with EPP, and I have yet to finish a single EPP project.  I opted to do some paper piecing this month instead and I found this...

Starstruck Challenge!

This month’s Island Batik Challenge is to create a quilt that incorporate STARS!  The fabrics featured in this post were given to me by Island Batik.  I love stars and you’ll tend to see lots of different stars in my quilts.  This month I decided to use a new technique as well to create scrappy half square triangles called accordion sewing!  I picked a Carpenter...
