I both love and hate leftovers. I ended up with small triangles leftover and then needed to cut some more to go with them. Lois, you saw this coming! It’s like cookies and milk; things never come out even! But it will feel good to use these up instead of stashing them somewhere. Have a great day ..read more

Did you guess? This little antique doll quilt was my inspiration. It’s time to actually make some of those things I have pinned on Pinterest! Have a great day ..read more

I’ve been in the mood for minis lately! These are the dies I used. The top one is from the 9” AccuQuilt Qube and the bottom one is from the 6” AccuQuilt Qube. Can you guess where I’m headed here? Have a great day! This post contains affiliate links ..read more

Can you tell now that a quilter will live here? This is my new sewing “room.” I have my projects and machine stored in one of the benches. And this is my hand sewing spot. I have my hand quilting and hand piecing projects in the large basket on the right and the small basket on the floor on the left holds hand work supplies. Here is what is inside. Of course, we have a quilt on the bed. If you are wondering where my die cutter is, never fear! I have my regular AccuQuilt Go! back at our Michigan house. It will get moved to Dora. Have a great day ..read more

You just never know what adventures God has in store for you. Meet Dora the Explorer. Our new tiny home. She’s a 2012 Winnebago Sightseer. Here are a couple photos of the inside. By the way, Dora means God’s gift. I’ll share more in the days to come. We are so grateful. Have a great day ..read more

Sometimes a simple project is just what you need. I’m sewing this top in rows rather than blocks. Every seam is pressed toward the print. This way everything nests. Have a great day ..read more

I’m hoping to finally finish hand quilting my 9 patch on the way back to Michigan. I decided to get the binding made and ready to go. To keep it neat, I rolled it up on a can of starch. Then I slid the can out. Easy peasy and ready to pack! I think I’m done kitting things up to take…..but you never know. Honestly, packing makes me cranky. Don’t say you haven’t been warned. These two are soaking up the sun before we go. Have a great day ..read more

We are getting back to the work of downsizing. I have decided to part with my beloved Juki TL-2000Qi. This is a workhorse piecing machine and it is fast. It comes with everything you see below, as well as a dozen bobbins. The knee lifter is for the presser foot. The walking foot is not included. It is in Arizona. If you come pick it up, you can take this desk for free. I’ve used this for a Bernina 1030, Singer 201, Singer 301, Featherweight, and this Juki. I’m also selling my lightly used White Superlock 2000ATS Serger. I’m asking $500 for the Juki and $175 for the serger. Pickup is in Sa ..read more

I was in the mood to use some Repro 30s fabrics. That always seems to happen in the spring! So I chopped them up into rectangles. They will finish at 1 1/2” by 3.” I cut up an equal number of yellow rectangles. Now I’m sewing them into pairs. Have a great day ..read more
