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

Time for the second installment already??? I hope you got your first installment done. This time, you get three more block patterns for the Springtime in Arrow Rock quilt: One of them is that big pink Rosebud block at the top center. I love that one, and it’s fun to make. I’ve included an extra […]

June Organizing Task One

Posted on June 11, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

How is it already time for a June Studio Organizing Challenge? Can this year really be almost half over? I do know that summer has hit full force here. The heat has all the animals off their feed, and I’ve switched from hot coffee to iced coffee for the season! And it seems like just […]

May 350 Blocks Report

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

It just seems crazy that this year is almost half over already! As usual, I don’t have near enough done. I’ve been at the longarm for many hours every day. My back is hating me for it, but I have some serious deadlines to meet. So most of the piecing I did this past month […]

May Organizing Task Two

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

Rain, Rain, Go away! Come back in July or August when we need you! My goats are entirely sick of the mud, and frankly, so am I. It’s all over everything, and it gets tracked in a hundred times a day, so there’s absolutely NO point in trying to keep my floors clean. And the […]

The very first year I taught at the Arrow Rock Quilt Camp, I gave a trunk show called “Vintage Inspiration”, which is me showing a whole bunch of quilts I’ve made that were inspired by or made from bits of old quilts I’ve picked up over the years. That was back in 2014. That’s when […]

Kathy’s Ramble

Posted on May 12, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in My Patterns, Quilts, What's New

Were you aware that the simple patchwork pinwheel block has many names? One of those names is “Kathy’s Ramble”. When I designed the Arrow Rock Sampler quilts, I included this block in the quilt in honor of Kathy Borgman, who runs Borgman’s Bed & Breakfast in the Village of Arrow Rock. It’s where I’ve stayed […]

May Organizing Task One

Posted on May 11, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

It’s already time for another Studio Organizing Challenge, and I have to say . . . I failed miserably at the last one. I simply did not have time to squeeze in any extra organizing, other than trying to stay on top of the daily messes I create! One thing I DID do as far […]
