September Studio Organizing, Task Two

Posted on September 26, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well! I thought that last task would be easier than it turned out to be. My goal was simply to clean out one file drawer. I’m about halfway through it. I have gladly thrown away a lot of useless stuff, and have also put away a lot of stuff that was sitting out, but I […]

Posted on September 22, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Challenges

It doesn’t seem possible, but as of tomorrow, there will only be 100 days left in 2021. Each year, I make a list (well, several lists) of “100 Things To Do in the Next 100 Days”. I keep all my lists in this book: I always make one list starting on January 1st, a second […]

Springtime in Arrow Rock, Month 5

Posted on September 16, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Arrow Rock Sampler

Ready for Month 5? This installment is the last of the blocks. After this, we’re on to the setting. The last few blocks are the little filler blocks that go in and around all the other bigger blocks, so there’s quite a bit of sewing, but they’re little, so they’ll be fast! Block 14: Block […]

Peggy’s Foxley Village

Posted on September 13, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Longarm Quilting

Since I can’t quilt right now, I’ll take a bit of time to show you a darling quilt I worked on a while back. I quilted this quilt for my customer, Peggy, and it is beyond adorable! The pattern is called Foxley Village, and it’s by The Birdhouse Patchwork Designs (Australia). Here’s what the full […]

September Studio Organizing, Task One

Posted on September 10, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well, what have you gotten done in the way of organizing the last couple weeks? Me, not much. I did get to clear off some projects from my cutting table and have already replaced those with some different ones. But now, things are in slow motion (or not moving at all), and I did not […]

A Scrappy Brunswick Forest

Posted on September 9, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Brunswick Forest

When I introduced Brunswick Forest to you a few weeks ago, I mentioned that a third setting option would be available for this BOM quilt. If you’re not a fan of the larger pieced settings shown in the original versions (which you can see HERE), this alternate setting is a simpler setting that makes a […]

Full Disclosure

Posted on September 7, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio News

I’ve tried to write this post three times. I don’t like spreading bad news, and I really dislike when it appears that I’m looking for sympathy — I’m not! But in the interest of keeping things real, I felt compelled to come clean. So . . . last Thursday morning, bright and early, this happened: […]

August 350 Blocks Report

Posted on August 31, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

Tomorrow begins my two favorite months of the year! But I really can’t believe we’re at this point already! My truck is in the shop getting a new set of tires just in time for winter. The current set lasted me THREE years, which I believe is a record, but is also a testament to […]

August Studio Organizing, Task Two

Posted on August 25, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

It’s time once again for another Studio Organizing Challenge. How did that happen so fast? I’ve been working on both my cutting table AND my scraps since I issued the last challenge, but things are not better. The scrap basket is even fuller (because as I was putting random things away, I found more scraps […]

Springtime in Arrow Rock, Month 4

Posted on August 15, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Arrow Rock Sampler

We’re at the halfway point already — can you believe it? I have really liked seeing all the completed blocks popping up in the Facebook group. It’s so fun to look at other people’s scraps and how they use them! This month gives you three more blocks. One of them is this cute little Bluebell. […]
