What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

For this week’s tutorial, we have two geometric spiral designs: Square and Triangle Spirals. These two free-motion designs can be used separately, or you can combine them in the same quilting plan to give lots of texture to your quilt. If you want to check out this video, click the link below:

Piece and Quilt with Precuts

The quilt I feature in this week’s video is called Starstruck. I used both Triangle and Square spirals on this quilt, but you can choose any designs from this series, as the busy pattern for this quilt and fabric choice can ...

From UFO to Done:

For the last five and a half years, I’ve been pulling out the project box for this Modern Star Quilt —sorting the pieces, laying them out, dreaming about the finish… and then carefully tucking it all away again. Every so often, I’d make a little progress by sewing a few star sets together, but it never seemed to get very far.

A few months ago, I made a promise to myself: I wanted to finally finish some of my UFOs so they could become part of the quilts I donate during the Giving Challenge ...

I am totally obsessed with sardines!! They are trending big time. I have a fish keychain from Ruby Star Society, the best goofy doormat featuring a full tin of them (which my husband loves), and my favorite t-shirt is from H&M. I even found a candle at Anthropologie… and I want so much more. That obsession led me to start making some fish templates for us! I’ve already made some fish-themed charity quilt blocks and have big plans for more projects—so stay tuned. To officially kick off my sardine obsession here on the blog, I wanted to ...

Mystic

I designed Mystic, a 48″ x 68″ throw for the Jardin de Lune Glow, a glow-in-the-dark collection by Blank Quilting. The luminescent mushrooms, flowers, hummingbirds, moths, and butterflies transported me on a night journey through a magical garden, inspiring me as I translated the beautiful fabrics into a design that added ‘beams of moonlight’ (the light borders) while showcasing each print.

Choosing ...

So, I did this thing!!! I stepped outside my comfort zone and created something that I have fallen in love with. I had a similar idea percolating in the back of my mind, but a project for my niece was the push I needed to bring it to life. Emily—or as I like to call her, Em—is my brother’s oldest daughter and the third of my siblings’ kids to get married. When I told her I’d love to help in any way, I was thrilled when she reached out, asking me to make a tablecloth for ...

I’m back for another Block Mania Tuesday! It’s been such a joy designing and creating all these unique blocks for this year’s Block Mania. November’s theme challenged us to make something you’d find in a market or shop, so I chose to design the Lucky Clover Quilt Block. It features a Purple Shamrock preserved in a cloche.

Why a Plant Themed Quilt Block?

Lately, I’ve fully embraced my inner plant mama! Taking care of my plants has become my favorite way to unwind from life’s stresses, especially since quilting—my beloved hobby—has ...

Are you ready to embark on a creative journey that will touch your heart? In the world of quilting where the quilt block is queen, Block Mania is everything. As we dive into this month’s theme and 28 quilt bocks centered around making, let’s explore how we can make each quilt block with heartfelt intentions. I have a very special block for you, a hand quilt block which represents every type of making. This is my Made with Love quilt block.

For my fabrics I used Ruby Star Society. Don’t you just love the floral background fabric ...
