If there was ever a year to wish on a falling star....this would be it! Wish is my newest pattern, and it might just top the list as my brightest quilt yet. When planning out this quilt I started with a dark background and moody golds and yellows...but then I saw these True Color...Read More

The days sure fly by don’t they? I’m trying to soak up my little 13 month old…this is one of my favorite ages. We even match. I’m just finishing up a new table runner. I haven’t made pinwheels in so long…I forgot how much I love them. It took all my willpower not...Read More

Are you all chickened out yet?! I hope not! When I first started designing this Chickens pattern I made a version with a white background, unlike the grey background I used for the cover quilt.

You’d never know it at first glance but this is SUCH an easy quilt to make…my favorite kind.

The last new pattern I wrote to accompany Backyard Blooms is Jelly Weave. This is one of those quilts that when you step back, or even just squint a bit you can really see the pattern. I love woven looking quilts (like this, and this, and this!), and this one is so simple to put...Read More
This Bloom quilt has been on my mind for a year and I’m so happy with how it turned out in Hello Jane fabrics! It matches our beautiful Spring weather outside. This pattern can use a layer cake (or 1

I put all those triangles to use this weekend and a mini-quilt was born. It still needs to be pressed, and then I think I’ll make it into a size we can use around the house. The triangles were leftover from making these blocks: The quilt turned out fab. I got myself a bunny this...Read More
Truth be told I don't love using scraps since it takes so much time, but I definitely LOVE the look of a scrap quilt. Since I had plenty of time, and plenty of scraps, I had no excuses not to make one! This design was based off of the Tick Tock quilt in my...Read More
