Shop Hop Projects from Quarter-Inch Capers

I had high (naive) hopes of finishing my shop projects over the Thanksgiving holiday. Ha! I was a little too optimistic. I had bought three potholder kits, four tea towel kits, and the free shop gift was materials and pattern to make a table runner.


I did so much cleaning and rearranging over the weekend, I think I misplaced two of the potholder kits. I’m not complaining—I needed to clean worse than I needed to sew, and they will turn up soon enough. I did get one of them sewn. 

I got the bird cut and pieced over ...

A Little of This and That from Quilts....etc.

I sewed the binding strips together for The Rose Garden and pressed them – they are ready to be stitched down – maybe today? I really need to get busy on that.  I have put off making another unit of Jack’s Chain until the table is cleared off – I need the room to sew […]

Welcoming Winter from Lovin' Life At The End Of The Dirt Road

 I think this is a magical place to live every day, but it turns into a Hallmark movie when it snows (a shot from last year)We've enjoyed such a lovely fall, and we're still waiting on our first snow of the season, but it was 16 the other morning. I know other parts of the country have already been covered up and it's caused messy, difficult commutes. Thankfully, we only need to commute to

Picking up where I left off.... from Plum Quilts


 Slightly awkward to try and get a flat shot of this sampler quilt, which is 60" square, so I'm sharing this one of it on the bed in DD2's room, where I think that it will stay!

I'm really pleased with how it finished.  And I really love how my colour palette has stayed the same since I was making the 'round robin' with my quilting group back in 2015 - it hangs on the wall behind the bed, and you can see how well they go together.

Blue and white is always such a fresh looking colour ...

Ask Jo: King-Sized Bed-Antique Frame from Jo's Country Junction

Every so often, questions and comments come from readers, and I think others would like to hear my response.  That’s when I feature them on the blog.  This is one of those days. The questions came after I showed this picture of my star quilt top, lying on my bed. The questions were about how I could …

How to Free-Motion Quilt Rainbows & Crescents – 99 Designs Episode #42 from Christa Quilts

In this week’s tutorial, I’m continuing with more densely textured free motion quilting designs: Rainbows and Crescents. If you like last week’s tutorial, these two designs use the same concept. They are also very similar, so try quilting them together as part of the same motif. Check it out below!

The Ultimate Guide to Machine Quilting

The quilt featured in this tutorial is Quattrefoil, from my book The Ultimate Guide to Machine Quilting. Both Rainbows and Crescents are featured in this quilt, as I made to be a “sampler” quilt with many different designs. If you want ...

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas Cookies…and Quilts! from Words & Stitches

The virtual cookie exchange is one I look forward to. I like the opportunity to push myself into trying to convert another holiday recipe to a gluten-free version. This time, I decided to try making my younger daughter’s favorite…snickerdoodles! When I started looking at gluten-free recipes, I was surprised to see they didn’t call for cream of tarter. In my opinion, half the charm of a snickerdoodle is that slightly tart taste that lingers on your tongue. So, I went back to my 1980’s Betty Crocker Cookbook and I just subbed in the Bob’s Red ...

Dressing table topper from Stitching Matters

 This little topper must have been one of the smallest projects I worked on.  The whole quilt fitted inside my throat space, and I had no need to advance even once.

I did, however, enjoy working on it as the quilter gave me free rein to do my own thing.

Another Day Of Running Around from Quilting My Way

This morning, I waited till about 10:45 am to get moving. I didn't realize till after I left that I was an hour earlier than I wanted to be. I got the times messed up. My first stop was at Safeway for the nicotine patch; to find out they didn't carry them. Then I stopped at CVS and was able to get the correct patch that mom needed. Next on the list was the museum. I needed up waiting for a while to see if Chip could answer a couple questions for me. Yes, we will have ...

April Quilts 2025 from Swooze's Quilts and Tall Tales

Two more tops for April,


The first is this pineapple quilt and where a lot of my energy was going.  I found a brown plaid that had fallen next to lavender.  I knew I wanted to make a quilt from this color combo.  A friend sent me a whack of chocolate browns to go with what I already had.  I purchased a lavender that has sort of a watercolor look to it.  While I was working on it another friend gifted me with a piece of yardage that was brown and lavender.  I was awestruck by her generosity.





This is ...

At the Movies: Wicked for Good from Jo's Country Junction

I was on a mission. I wanted to see the Wicked, the movies. So about two or three weeks ago, it was my turn to pick a movie one night when Arnie was at my house, and I picked Wicked. Arnie typically doesn’t mind musicals, so I thought it would be okay. He ended up …

New on YouTube: Garden Gatherings A La Mode Cutie Quilt from Quilty Pleasures

My A La Mode Cutie Pattern is quick and easy to piece -- as easy as pie A La Mode!



I chose to quilt it simply using a wave ruler.  That, too was quick and easy.


It was all so quick and easy that I feel like I blinked and the quilt was finished.  I'm sad I didn't get to work on this beauty longer! 

I did, however, film while I quilted this and added the video to YouTube so you can see how fast this little quilt went together.


To make your own version of this quilt, you ...

A Few Projects from The Knitting Quilter


 We're in the middle of a snowstorm right now. It's been snowing since mid-morning but it just started getting heavier. I'm not sure how much snow we're expecting. It varies depending what channel you're watching. I'd guess 3-5" maybe?!


Due to the storm, I stayed home all day. I have one row of purple left to sew onto my Facets quilt. I really love how this is coming out. The quilt top lays so nice and flat! I'm so glad to see that!


I have decided not to take part in any Blocks ...

A Glorious Six Days: The Best of Winter from Quilting Studio Adventures

 Even though it’s early December,we've had winter weather complete with snow.  It started the day after Thanksgiving.  Our dinner was small, and of course there was football.  Which meant I had the day to sew! Same with Friday, Saturday, Sunday, yesterday, and today.  All I’ve been doing is sewing.  Sew happily.

The class I took in October with David Owen Hastings on shibori quilting was fun,and I’ve finished my quilt top.  After the class at Quilters Quest, I left my Husqvarna for a badly-needed DNC.  And it is working superbly.  I’m working on ...
