Richelle’s Bowties

Thought I’d pop on and show you this darling Bowties quilt today. This vintage quilt top belongs to my friend, Richelle, and she asked me if I could turn it into a finished quilt for her. And that’s what I do — so of course, I said I would! It turned out even more darling […]

The Rebuttal Quilt

I recently finished a quilt that I’m lovingly calling “The Rebuttal Quilt”. Back in 2014, my bestie, Victoria Findlay Wolfe, and I, rented a retreat center for ourselves for 5 glorious days of non-stop sewing. If you don’t count the incident where I had to leave her all alone there one night and go rescue […]

Since I made the elephant quilt for that special little girl to keep at her grandma’s house, I also needed to make her one for her own house. I heard through the grapevine that her mama wanted a sheep theme in the nursery, and I was in love with this pattern, so it was the […]

Matt & Cammie’s Wedding Quilt

Back before we moved, I started working on this rustic-farm(ish)-country-scrappy quilt for some friends of ours who were getting married in June. I thought I’d have plenty of time to get it done in time for the wedding, but that was just me and my big pie-in-the-sky expectations, which are almost always unrealistic! So we […]

A Very Special Double Wedding Ring Quilt

My bestie, Victoria Findlay Wolfe, has a new book out. It actually came out in September, but I took time to read all the way through mine before posting about it. It’s so wonderful! It’s called “The Quilting Experience: A Celebration of Community and Patchwork Patterns”. This book is a lovely, hard-cover book with soooo […]

Embroidered Summer Quilt

My sister got me this quilt for my birthday a couple years ago: We were eyeing it on Etsy, and I said I’d maybe like to get it and take it apart and machine quilt it. A bit later, I was at her house, and she presented me with the quilt! And after getting it […]

Option Expedition

Victoria Findlay Wolfe has a new series of work now showing! She worked hard on these pieces over the last couple years, which means she kept me busy with these pieces as well. I have to say I breathed a big sigh of relief when we finished the last one for this exhibit! There will […]
