Pink Tulips Baby Quilt

Posted on April 5, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in My Patterns, Quilts

I’m back with another pink baby quilt today. This one is called Pink Tulips: I made it using one of the blocks from my BOM quilt, Sew Sweet Sampler — Block 5, to be exact — so if you have the Sew Sweet Samplers pattern, you already have this block pattern, too! If not, you can […]

Posted on April 4, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in Mad Dash

It’s April 4th already — that snuck up on me! Agnes and Arthur turned TWO years old yesterday — they’ve grown up so beautiful! They’re so sweet, and they love back scratches. Arthur loves apples, but Agnes isn’t too excited about special treats. Agnes looks so much like her mother, but without the black parts, […]

I’ve been done with this project since early January, but I wanted to do an un-rolling video, and just couldn’t figure that out (I’m a real tech whiz, dontcha know!) Anyway, I managed a really poor one today, and you can see it on my Instagram account (since I don’t know how to imbed a […]

March 350 Blocks Report

Posted on March 31, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

One fourth of the year already gone! Wow! I’ve spent a LOT of time at the longarm machine, but I have also been sewing like the wind to finish some things up, so I had a pretty good total this month. I ended up with 130 blocks for March. One was a guild exchange block […]

Pink Petals Baby Quilt

Posted on March 28, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in Quilts, Tutorials

It all started with this . . . Going through a random bag of scraps that I had put aside for some unknown reason. Why did I even save something like these? What did I think I was going to do with them? Where did they come from? At the time, I can assure you, […]

March Studio Organizing, Task Two

Posted on March 27, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

How did that 2 weeks go by so fast? Maybe it was the time change? I feel like I cleaned and organized so many projects, yet my table was still full! I finished EIGHT wheelchair lap quilt tops. They’re only 36″ square, but still, they used up lots of pieces and I also prepped backings […]

Brunswick Forest, Block Seven

Posted on March 12, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in Brunswick Forest

Time to dive into the second half of the Brunswick Forest BOM! Block Seven is called Apple Tree. Another easy one with very few triangles. Here it is in the fall-colored version: Here’s the non-traditional color way. I didn’t plan it that way, but I like how the print in this one made those little […]

March Studio Organizing, Task One

Posted on March 11, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Let me just say right now that I did the last organizing challenge immediately after posting it, and I have been loving having my handwork all organized in my sewing box! I actually work on it regularly now, like nearly every evening, rather than dreading having to pilfer through the messy carton looking for what […]

Mad Dash

Posted on March 7, 2022 by prairiemoonquilts in Mad Dash, My Patterns

I have a new pattern to introduce to you today! I’ve been working on this for a very long time. It was a hard one to write. In fact, when I made the first quilt, I never intended to turn it into a pattern — I was making it just for myself. However, once other […]
