It’s time to share another one of my favorite little Tidbits! I love these short and sweet tips and tricks for your sewing life. Today I want to share how I store my current projects and UFOs.
Sounds simple…right?
Of course it does, and my threader has been broken for years and I’ve done just fine without it. But as of late…well, lets just say my eyesight has seen better days…
This week, I’ve been challenged by Kim over at Persimon Dreams as part of her 2019 Project Quilting Celebrity Challenge. Read on to see what my challenge was and what I came up with!
We all know that I’m totally obsessed with Amy Friend’s By Hand collection. I used it in my Bloctopus quilt and jumped at the chance when my friends over at Benartex asked if I’d be interested in using it again.
I was asked to create a small project that showed off Amy’s beautiful work, and I really couldn’t resist using the whole spectrum of fabrics. I’m a sucker for ROYGBV and these fabrics just flow so nicely into each other.

Welcome to 2019! It seems like this will be the year of trunk shows for me and I want to fill you in on all the opportunities you have to hear from me this year. This week was scheduled to be a Youtube video…unfortunately, I’ve got a cold that’s been hanging around for far too long and you don’t want to see (or hear) me in this state! Stay tuned next week for a brand new Youtube tutorial that you’re sure to love.
Today I’ve got a quick tutorial for you that I think you’ll enjoy! This is helpful for many projects, like my Quilter’s Planner cover! I’ve finished my cover (keep scrolling for a sneak peek), and am planning on creating an amazing cover pattern for 2020!
This year I decided that New Year’s Resolutions just don’t do it for me. I fail by February and then I give up. So this year, inspired by a talk I recently heard by Meg Cox, I chose to pick a word.
One word. For the whole year.
I chose Balance…but that’s all I’m going to say for now! I’ll be giving you the whole scoop as the year goes on… (Continue reading…)
2019 is only two days along and I already know the theme for the year.
Balance.
It doesn’t take long once you know me until you realize that I really like getting organized.
I’m not the best at staying organized, but I really love to have a place for everything and everything in it’s place.
This year I was about to order the same old same old 2019 planner, when a friend of mine showed me her Quilter’s Planner. Sure, I had heard about it before, but didn’t really think much of it. I assumed it was some traditional old-school planner. Boy, was I wrong! (Continue reading…)
Today is a special day.
Yes, yes, it’s just another tutorial…
but it’s not just another tutorial, because today I’m releasing my very first video tutorial.
That’s right—I’ve finally realized that it is 2018 and that video is the way to go. I think you’re really going to enjoy these videos too! I love being able to interact with you like you’re in the studio sewing with me. I’m excited to see what you guys think and get started on more video tutorial projects! (Continue reading…)
