Sorry for the lack of a post yesterday. Dennis and I have had so many errands this week, and we have ventured out together to take care of a lot of boring things. Today may be more of the same, but I hope to get some sewing in. The last Riley Blake Challenge block is […]
I did some productive sewing over the weekend. I completed the four remaining blocks for Week 4 of the 4th of July at Granny’s sew-along, hosted by Heather Briggs. These blocks are the same as the two blue plaid ones I made first. However, the red fabric was a lot less of a hassle to […]
I’ve been finishing up the week with lots of fun sewing. I am not actually sewing on my new 570QE, but rather sewing next to it. lol. It is plugged in and I have played with it, but I am waiting for the table insert to arrive before I start using it regularly. I have […]
How cute is this third block in the Strawberry 26 block-of-the-month sew-along that Heather Briggs of My Sew Quilty Life is hosting? I think this little cake stand is adorable, and honestly, it wasn’t that much of an ordeal to make it in spite of the tiny pieces. The tiny pieces were outweighed by the […]
This is my revised second block for the Strawberry 2026 sew-along. I’ve been dragging my heels on this sew-along and let me explain why. Do you ever start a project and feel that it “just isn’t you”? I love My Sew Quilty Life Heather Briggs’ designs, both her fabrics and her sew-along projects. However, I […]

This block may have taken a while, but the results are sure worth it. I had to use the seam ripper a few times, but in the end, it all came together. This is the second block of the Strawberry 2026 Sew Along, hosted by Heather over at My Sew Quilty Life. I have to […]
Debbie guessed the new sew-along from my post yesterday. The block with the gazillion pieces is the first one in Heather Briggs’ The Year of Strawberries 2026 sew-along. It turned out so darn cute, but wow, that was a heck of a lot of pieces and seam matching. I was hopping up and down from […]
Honestly, I really have been working on finishing up my Halloween projects. I have sewn the Pumpkin Gatherings top together and nearly have finished the Spooks and Spells top. I just got really distracted yesterday pulling out Christmas projects that I have been wanting to do. I promise to show you my finished Halloween projects […]
