CHRISTMAS IS COMING, my friends! I shipped off a package to my out-of-town family, and gifts on the home front are about all ready to go! I am now officially shopping for 2024!

I used the blue version of the monkeys print for the back.

I made up several kits for this quilt if you want to make one too. The Animal Crackers Quilt Kit is $59.99 plus applicable tax and shipping. The kits include all of the fabrics for the top plus the binding fabric and the pattern, with my corrections to it as it includes an error as printed. But my kits included the corrected pattern!

Hello my friends, I hope you have been well! Summer is for slowing down (or not) and for quilting for many. Besides my usual work related projects, I have enjoyed having my daughter home for the summer. She is crazy busy during the school year. Summer is when we can binge watch different British documentaries together. We have been enjoying watching a series called Fake or Fortune this summer! If you like art history, you might ...

Hello Friends, I hope you have been well. Quite a bit of designing and pattern writing is happening over here, but I can’t complain! All’s well. Before I forget, I want to share with you a reproduction schoolgirl sampler I completed a few weeks ago. This was a stitch-along project my friend (and very famous quilter) Susan Ache and I worked on for our #wendyandsusalsal on Instagram! We are getting ready to start our ...

Hello Friends, I hope you have been well! I hope you have had a good week! I am still busily winging it over here! Before I go on, I do want you to know that 123stitch.com (an online needlework shop from which I buy) is now carrying my printed patterns.
