I am absolutely thrilled with how this quilt turned out! This is Pumpkin Spice Gatherings, a sew along I did with Lisa Bongean (Primitive Gatherings) last summer. It was a ton of work and took yards and yards of fabric, but I love it in the end. It is a huge quilt and covers our […]
I got two quilts back from my quilter yesterday and I am so pleased with the results! Would you believe I cannot for the life of me recall what this pattern is? If any of you remember, help me out so I can promote it. I think it is so perfect for this time of […]
You may recall me posting about getting up my courage to send another quilt off to my quilter in Florida. She is such a lovely person and I have used her for years. She did all she could to help me recover my loss when USPS lost the previous quilt I sent to her. I […]
I’ve certainly got my courage up this week. I have sent off another quilt for quilting. This one is going to Florida, where a previous one got lost. My quilter there sounded so relieved and grateful that I was willing to chance sending another quilt to her. Actually, she has quilted for me for nearly […]
Isn’t it nice when things operate as expected? My quilter in Utah mailed a couple of quilts back to me, and they were actually delivered right to my door. After the recent massive fail on the part of USPS, it was a relief to receive this package as expected. Although it was delivered by UPS […]
To be honest, I haven’t felt much like sewing this week. We were supposed to have left for a trip to Ireland to visit our son, but had to cancel the trip due to health issues. We had a side trip to stay in the Cotswolds planned, as well as a jaunt to London which […]
I have generated some interest in French General fabrics with my latest post, so I thought I would show you some of the quilts I have made over the years using them. I have always loved their elegant fabric collections and have purchased a lot in my quilting history. I have also accumulated a very […]
I got busy this weekend and sorted out the backings for a couple of quilts that I have been meaning to send off to my quilters. The Red Pineapple quilt has been done for ages, but because of all the bias edges, I wanted to add a narrow outside border to keep things from stretching […]
I brought out some colorful quilts yesterday. Spring is here, and I want to celebrate! These quilts were all made a few years back, but still bring a smile to my face. Don’t you just love the cheer that some color adds to the mix? Let me tell you about the quilts. The quilt above […]
Oh my goodness, this week has turned out to be so busy! The weather has been nice, and I have taken advantage of it to start sorting out our garage, where things seem to get out of hand fairly regularly. That is a job that can’t be done in a day, but I do try […]
