I can’t wait to see everyone’s finishes this week! I have a very special quilt today to share that I FINALLY finished! Remember all the way back in January when I started making a large...
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...
I am so excited to share my newest pattern with you today! Introducing Twisted Ladder! Twisted Ladder is a beginner quilt pattern that is layer cake friendly. The sample quilt is Terrain by Kate Spain. I used the full layer for the quilt with two 10″ squares left over.
There are so many phone applications out there these days that can do anything and everything, but sometimes it’s much easier to just use your camera! Let me explain… I am working on my Frame It Up volume 2 quilt, and I already walked through my color placement process (read about it here). However when I start actually making the quilt top, I always want...
I have been away on business all week, but that didn’t stop me from being creative nor sewing my heart out last weekend!

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!

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!
