Hard at work, or, hardly working?
It feels like both. I’ve been working all week to get patterns uploaded to Payhip. It’s been an ordeal, but I think I’ve done it, correctly, I hope. Yesterday a package arrived from Northcott with fabric for several of the designs that have been in their Look Books. First is Santa’s Tree Farm, see it […]
Another Tumbleweed
Here is the last (for now at least) Tumbleweed. The fabric is Moda’s Tulip Tango. I think this is my favorite out of the five. This is such beautiful fabric. The others are too, but this one is so vibrant, so colorful. Here they all are: Clockwise from the top left: Moda’s Tulip Tango, Northcott’s […]
A new pattern in the works
I’ve been playing around with this design for at least 5 years (the poor thing is getting gray hair waiting to be finished). I’ve submitted it to several fabric manufacturers in the past, but until now, no one has wanted it. I dug out the fabric I had set aside for it, it’s an Island […]
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 […]

Well. I kinda got lost…
I’ve been working on proposals. I’m working on new patterns. I submitted two designs, same pattern, simply two different layouts. Neither of those was accepted. I submitted a lap/lap/twin size quilt and a tablerunner to Island Batik, and they accepted the tablerunner. So, now I’ trying to get the pattern to testers. I thought it […]
Beams #3
Since the “waste triangles” from the second Beams quilt I sewed failed to give the results I wanted to emphasize, I decided to make another. For this one I decided to use Christmas fabrics. I searched through my stash. I have all that lovely cardinal and poinsettia fabric with the gold accents. Unfortunately, I was […]
A tablerunner for Valentine’s Day…or not!
Introducing Log Cabin Spin. This is simply Log Cabin blocks, made with two widths for the logs. There are four different blocks with lights and darks. Color placement and block position brings out the hearts. If you’re not looking for hearts, change the color scheme, and twist and turn the blocks to get a totally […]
