These are my two blocks for month three of the Blogger Girls BOM Sew Along. Such easy blocks to make, as I indicated in a previous post where I showed how to use the Fit to be Quarter and the Fit to be Quarter Companion rulers. You get such lovely accurate results with these tools. […]
Here we go girls. Block Number Two of the Blogger Girls BOM. Ooops. I had this set to post March 1. That would just be a month late, don't you know? This was a fun one to make. I continue to enjoy my springy Audra's Iris Garden fabric by Brannock and Patek for Moda. I […]
Ok, let me just put it out there that if you are making the Blogger Girls BoM, you cannot nod off while you are sewing. The project is not terribly complicated, but you do need to remain alert. No mind wandering during this construction process. So here is what I did that caused me to […]

Monique Dillard of Open Gate Quilts is hosting a six month BOM program involving seven quilt bloggers, all of whom will be using different fabric collections to make the project. Do stop by these sites to see what fabrics the other quilters are using for their BOM. Sherri from […]
I am very excited about the Blogger's Block of the Month program that is hosted by Open Gate designer Monique Dillard. The BOM will start in earnest at the beginning of January (as soon as the holiday hub bub has subsided), and last for six months. Seven bloggers you may know and enjoy are participating […]

All I want to do these days is sew. I don't even need a deadline or a project with a near finish. Just let me sew. Production sewing is just fine. 435 half square triangles? No problem, I'm your girl. I have finished four rows of Lori Holt's Row Along and I like it just […]
I've been on a business trip, and this was the view from my hotel room. Seriously. I'm home and I'm pooped, but I will post again a bit later to tell you more about my experience! Anyone recognize where I've been?
I finished Block 4 of the 2011 Designer Mystery BOM. Thanks so much to Sinta for hosting this BOM Rehab Monday! I am getting so many things done thanks to this program. In fact, this should be a week full of good posts from me, as I had an extremely productive weekend. It is amazing […]
I surely seem to be obsessed with my Fig Tree stash lately. Am I in danger of Figging Out? Well, wigging out maybe, but not due to my total immersion in this pretty fabric. So far, these lovely soft tones are just what I need to soothe my my raggedy psyche. I finished up three […]
Hello, I’m Nicole, an enthusiastic quilter and fabric lover.
