Who says you can’t make a quilt with only 5 quilt blocks? I’m not positive that anyone has even said that, but I am positive that it is possible! With a one day window to make this quilt happen I...
Nothing much to say over here except that I've finished all the piecing for the Mod Sampler Quilt! Behold, a funky front.. and a funky back.. I may or may not sandwich this immediately, depends on how I'm feeling. But...
You could say I'm working hard these days to keep being productive on the crafting front. Despite the declaration of my new goal of keeping realistic and manageable goals, somehow I've managed to, how do you say, feel like I've...
Sorry to leave you high and dry for almost two weeks. Wedding and especially crafty posts will be rolling out on a regular basis shortly. I just wanted to drop in and show one of my current projects, a belated...

Is it me or does it seem like I've turned into a quilting machine? I've completed three quilts since mid-June and I'm well on my way to finishing my fourth by Wednesday. I've literally worked on this quilt ALL weekend....
So kids, the quilt was a HUGE hit! And so were the dress and the top. But let me tell you, BOY was I nervous as the gifts were being opened. As each present was opened, "Oh, onesies!" "Yay, bibs!"...
