It’s high time I showed you a couple quilts I finished back last year. Yes, back in 2019, which already seems eons ago, right? I could never get any pictures because the weather was so bad, and if the weather was tolerable, the wind was blowing 50 miles an hour, much like today — it’s […]

If you watched the Craft in America episode on Quilts, and you paid close enough attention during Victoria Findlay Wolfe’s portion, you would have seen her working on a quilt on her design wall during the episode. After Victoria finished the top, she sent it to me for quilting, and we had several discussions about […]

Snowballs!

Posted on January 24, 2020 by prairiemoonquilts in Inspiration, Quilts

A perfect day to talk about snowballs, since this is the view out my studio window this morning. Ranger doesn’t know it yet, but that hay he’s looking at longingly is just about to get moved across the fence for him and Wyatt! They will love it. But the snowballs I really want to talk […]

Craft in America on PBS is airing an episode on QUILTS! Tonight! You’ll have to check your local listings for the time. The episode features 4 quilters, each with a very different style, and also features the International Quilt Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska, and some of the things they do. I think it’s wonderful […]

Back in February, I told you about my guild’s current mystery project we had going on, The Happenstance Quilts. I also showed you two options I had for doing mine. Well, I chose the Christmas option, and used this for my center block: I’ve never made an actual red and green Christmas quilt, so I […]

Six Finishes

Posted on February 25, 2019 by prairiemoonquilts in Quilts

I’ve finished six projects this year already! (Seven if you count the Fingerless Mitts I made for my sister.) Here’s my 36-Patch, finally finished! I completed this top in February of 2012, at a guild retreat. It has languished in the to-be-quilted pile for SEVEN years! It’s from a quilt-along by Amanda Jean at Crazy […]
