Creating a Quilting Path
It's been a few weeks since I've checked in here so I thought it was about time I popped in. I've been busy working on customer quilts and trying to fit in some time for my own projects here and there. This week I'm working on a customer quilt that is made up of 12"...
A Blooming Log Cabin, Starting a New Project, and Lots of Custom Quilting
I finally finished all the log cabin blocks for the project I've been working on for what seems like forever. This quilt has been in my sketchbook for about three years. I've had the math mostly figured out for the past two, and finally got around to piecing the...
Quilting Wild on Kaffe and Grunge
My last custom finish of 2020 was on this fabulous quilt made by my friend and customer Kit. I always get excited when I see Kit's quilt coming up in my queue. She uses so many fabulous fabrics and tells me to 'have fun' with the quilting. And boy, do I have fun! LOL...
A Few Finishes and, Snow!

Razzleberry – Class Quilts
Tish's QuiltCarol's Quilt Last month I was able to teach my Razzleberry pattern as a class at our local quilt shop, Bolts & Quarters Quilt Shop. Isn't that a cool name for a quilt shop? One of my elderly customers calls it Nuts & Bolts. I think that fits all...
My Blogging Break is Over and I’m So Happy to Be Back!
Soooo, you may have noticed that I have been on a blogging break. It wasn't something that I really planned to do....it just happened. This year has been amazing, challenging, exciting, worrisome, and (truth syrup) sometimes frustrating. When our state went on...
