Fields of Flower – A Colorful Take on a Row Quilt from Brown Bird Designs Quilts

I first released the Fields of Flower quilt as part of the Great Jelly Roll Bash in 2024. I can’t believe it has already been six months! Jelly Roll Day falls on the third Saturday of September, and since I’m all about the quilting life, celebrating a quilting holiday makes perfect sense, I always throw a party for the occasion. But it just hit me—I haven’t shared Fields of Flower my row quilt on the blog yet!

 Me and my Fields of Flowers row quilt. I am over it, holding the top edge so it is hanging.

One reason for the delay? This quilt is BIG. It wasn’t quilted initially, but that changed for QuiltCon ...

Easy-Peasy all-in-one Yoga Bag - new pattern from A Beautiful Day - O Zi Frumoasa

Hello everyone!


Long time no see, I know, but here I am!

I'm so happy to tell you a few things about my new bag pattern! The name speaks for itself: 

Easy-peasy all-in-one Yoga Bag. 


Bag in pink and white patterned fabric with a yoga mat held in the bottom.

It is a special bag pattern. 

What makes this pattern special? When you look at the bag, you don't see anything special in its appearance. It has a common shape. What makes it different is its interior. I'm particularly proud of two things I managed to work out in this pattern: on the one hand, the built-in lower space (not added as ...
