It’s taken me an entire week to really sit down and reflect on my first Fall Quilt Market trip. I’m glad this year was the anomaly of being a week later than normal. Because of the later dates, it ended up on the same weekend as Blizzcon! Blizzcon is the only vacation that my husband and I take that has nothing to do with our side...
Disclaimer: This post is a LONG post warning. Some of the numbers and figures given were estimates stated to me during the tour. There were no official numbers pulled, so take those with a grain of salt. I was also not compensated for a blog post about my tour, moreover I really just consider myself lucky to have done it. I need to give a shoutout...
Introducing my “Decorate A Snowman” block pattern! YAY! This is the pattern I designed for the I Wish You A Merry QAL that has been updated and had sizes added! The pattern is now a paid pattern and you can get it from my Craftsy Shop. The pattern includes instructions and templates for a 12″, 18″, and 24″ block. I used the 18″ block as...
Today is a huge milestone for me since it’s my 100th blog post! That’s so exciting! I have been blogging for about a year and a half, and it started out really slowly before I hit my stride. For everyone that’s been reading since then (Hi, family!), thanks so much for joining me on this journey thus far! This week at home has been pretty...
I’m so proud to present my finished quilt top! I added basic sashing and a border to my quilt blocks! Since I designed block 5, I decided to put the block front and center. Whenever there is sashing, having cornerstones will make sure the quilt gets aligned properly. My quilt finishes at 50″x64″.

Laura Piland from Slice of Pi Quilts designed this Christmas Lights Block. You can get the pattern for this block on her blog post. Be sure to check out my final quilt top blog post too!

Snowed in October, but high of 50 on Sunday?! I’ll take it! This was my first full week at home in awhile, and it was so productive! Plus I released my latest pattern this past Tuesday, and I got shout out from Kate Spain, how cool! I am so happy I got to meet her last QuiltCon even though I completely fan-girled. Anyway, on to...

We’re at the second to the last block of this amazing QAL! Block 11, North Star, is designed by Kathleen McCormick of Kathleen McMusing. She has made instructions for both paper piecing and Tri-Recs rulers, so make sure to visit her page to download the pattern. If you need help paper piecing, you can find my tutorial here. I started off this block thinking that...
Holiday lights are going up and snow is coming down! It’s definitely winter here in Minnesota, and we are winding down to the last few blocks that are left in the QAL. Block 10 is revealed today! Diane Lomax of Cwilt designed this beautiful lantern block! It uses templates rather than paper piecing. My fabric choices include Moda Grunge and a red accent fabric to...
