The blocks are pieced. I foundation pieced. I have some really thin paper. I have no idea how it came to be in my sewing room, it’s been in the cabinet for years. I pieced 15 8½” x 11″ blocks which I trimmed down to about 8″ x 10½”. But first of all, I had […]
A Christmas Quilt
I think I’m making it for a dresser scarf. We replaced the front door a month or so ago. The door that was on when we moved here had two windows way up at the top, too high to look through (unless you are very tall). I wanted something so I could see who was […]
Copyright? Crediting designers??
I did a post about a customer quilt I sewed. This morning I had an email telling me that I had a comment awaiting moderation. I actually had three, two of which were very obviously spam, and I immediately marked them as spam. The other I suspected was spam (going by the name), but it […]
Summer Night Soiree
I finished piecing a quilt top for a customer. Summer Night Soiree is a free pattern from Henry Glass Fabrics, the designer is Salt Meadow Studios for Henry Glass. I sewed the sample for the Creamery. I switched some of the fabrics around, I didn’t like where some of the fabrics were placed…so I did […]

Another new quilter!
Sunday after church we picked up two granddaughters. I knew Elizabeth (9) wanted to make a tablerunner for their uncle’s upcoming wedding. I wasn’t sure what Anna (7) wanted to do. As it turned out, she wanted to make a quilt. Since the only thing she’s sewed before is a mini 10 Minute Tablerunner and […]
