What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

This is another one of those parks with several entrances, many miles apart. We happen to be at the North Cascades side of the park. The ...

Pumpkins are popping up on porches, sweaters are coming out of storage, and our sewing rooms are calling.

How can it only be that I have one working week left in Devon? The time since I started packing has flown. I just want to get going now because almost everything is packed but I am trying to savour living by myself in my own space.

I reduced the price of my velvet sofa on FB Marketplace and found a buyer but they want to pick it up this weekend. I don’t have any garden chairs left then figured I could move one of the hideaway single beds downstairs to make into a temporary telly-watching spot. 

I have ...

Did you see what was chosen for the October color? It was posted on Wednesday—either light neutral or dark neutral. Hmmmm. I don’t know. I liked Angela’s suggestion to think about using the neutrals for sashing. I laid out my star blocks to see if I have enough for a quilt.

Well, I obviously need another block. I think I have another purple cut out—I just need to figure out where I put it. The blocks are 16” so if I add 2” sashing, the top will be 70” x 88” plus whatever I add for ...

We are back from h+h Americas in Houston with a camera roll full of quilts, fabrics, designers, and plenty of inspiration!

We spent our time walking the show floor, catching up with friends in the quilting industry and getting a closer look at new collections, patterns, and products coming soon. Keep reading for a few highlights from our trip!

Starting at Sample It

We kicked things off at Sample It and, of course, Kimberly found a few things to bring home!
