I just finished up a quilt and it’s one of my favorites I’ve ever made! The last few throw-sized quilts I’ve made were projects I wasn’t thrilled about – I made them to finish up quilts I’d started years go and wasn’t totally in love with the fabric or pattern after all this time (like […]

Our Quilted Christmas Stockings
Is it June and I’m sitting here looking at 4th of July decorations on my mantle? Yes. But am I still going to make a post about Christmas? Also yes. Because I never blogged about our quilted Christmas stockings and I super love them so they need a post of their own. Hey, only six […]
Stack of Books Quilt | After 10 years it’s finally finished
I made my first quilt in 2012 (if you’re an OG reader you may remember that Block of the Month quilt). In 2013 I started my 2nd quilt – a “stack of books” quilt. I’d seen one on Pinterest and loved it – at the time I was a librarian and a quilt about books […]
Half Square Triangle Baby Quilt
Baby number four’s quilt is done! All except embroidering his name on the back because…well…we still haven’t picked a name for him yet. Yikes! Hopefully we’ll decide soon! But in the mean time, I am so in love with how this half square triangle baby quilt turned out! It’s so colorful and fun! It’s reading […]
Tilt-a-Whirl Quilt – A Long Time Coming but Finally Done!
Many years after purchasing this pattern and buying all the fabric for it I FINALLY got around to making the Tilt-a-Whirl quilt! This was a fun learning experience for me as it was my first fully machine-quilted quilt. I’m proud of how it turned out!
A Quilted Star Burst Tree Skirt for my Christmas Tree
The first year we were married I didn’t have a tree skirt for our Christmas tree so I bought some fabric from Hobby Lobby, draped it around the bottom of the tree, and called it good. Eleven Christmases later and we were STILL using that same piece of fabric as our makeshift tree skirt. This […]
Everly’s Pink and Coral Baby Quilt
While all of my kids’ quilts are very special to me, Everly’s has an additional aspect that the boys’ didn’t have. Some of the fabric from her quilt was actually the leftover polka dot fabric from my flower girls’ dresses in my wedding. I’ve been saving it all these years and intended that someday if […]
Parker’s baby quilt
I thought there was no way I’d get Parker’s baby quilt done before he was born and yet here I am, still pregnant at 40 weeks 2 days and his quilt is totally, 100% done! Yay! I absolutely love how it turned out too! This was by far the quickest and easiest quilt I’ve done. […]
Hudson’s quilt
Hudson’s quilt is finished! This stack of fabric has turned in to this beautiful baby quilt. Sigh. I love it so much. When I first started thinking about Hudson’t quilt I (of course) turned to Pinterest for inspiration. I looked at tons and tons of baby quilts and just quilts in general, but I kept […]
