Quilts for Pam and Rachel

Posted on July 21, 2018 by prairiemoonquilts in People, Quilts

A couple years ago, my cousins asked me if I would help them out by finishing some quilt tops that my Great-Aunt Jo had started before she passed away. I was honored to do it. Isn’t this a lovely stack of finished quilts? First up was a set of embroidered blocks that Aunt Jo had […]

Baby Baby!

Posted on July 5, 2018 by prairiemoonquilts in My Patterns, Quilts

I have another new pattern out! This one is called “Baby Baby!”, and it’s a very quick and easy baby quilt that you can personalize with a bit of easy appliqué. There are two versions, and I’m calling them the Girl version and the Boy version, altho they’re completely interchangeable. And you can also choose […]

Reworking Vintage

Posted on May 2, 2018 by prairiemoonquilts in Handstitching, Quilts

I have quite a collection of vintage quilt tops and vintage orphan blocks. One of my favorite quilting pastimes is reworking them into new finished quilts. I don’t get to spend as much time at it as I’d like, but every now and then, I put in some effort on it. I’m teaching at Arrow […]

This Week

Posted on March 22, 2018 by prairiemoonquilts in Quilts, Studio News, What's New

We’re past Hump Day already, and I don’t feel like I’ve done one single productive thing yet this week. Fortunately, I was at my guild’s spring retreat last weekend at Sew Sweet Quilt Shop’s fabulous retreat center, where I did move a few projects forward with some uninterrupted sewing time. We got to watch the […]

Imogene’s Vintage Quilt

Posted on February 12, 2018 by prairiemoonquilts in Longarm Quilting, Quilts

Last summer, I worked on restoring a vintage quilt top for my friend, Imogene. This quilt was made by Imogene’s great-aunt, Emma Salyer (Mrs. James Salyer), when she was young, and Aunt Emma gave it to Imogene as an unquilted top. Imogene says she’s reasonably sure the quilt is at least 100 years old! Over […]

One of the projects I put on my list this year is my Yo-Yo quilt. I’m planning to do a lot of handwork this year, and my Yo-Yo quilt is a big hand stitching project that I’ve had going on for years. I’ve decided that this is the year I’d like to try and finish […]

I’d like to show you a quilt I made a few months ago for Dear Stella to hang in their booth at Quilt Market. It’s called the Hexactly quilt, and it’s designed by Sam Hunter of Hunters Design Studio. Isn’t this gorgeous?! The folks at Dear Stella had me make the quilt using their Chroma […]

That 30-foot Quilt!

Posted on July 5, 2017 by prairiemoonquilts in Longarm Quilting, Quilts

It’s called “A Garden for All Seasons”, and it’s the creation of my bestie, Victoria Findlay Wolfe. It’s a quilt she made that is NINE feet tall by THIRTY feet wide! It’s so big I couldn’t get it all in one picture: It hung at the AQS Show in Paducah back in April, and standing […]

Scrap Quilt Progress

Posted on January 10, 2017 by prairiemoonquilts in Quilts

I have my first finish of the year! It only took me six days. I finished the cow quilt I started in the Leni Wiener workshop back in October. All I had left to do was put the cows on their background, then get it quilted and bound. It didn’t take near as long as […]

Posted on November 19, 2016 by prairiemoonquilts in Quilts

No, I’m not posting a holiday recipe! I’m showing you the progress I’m making on the Tula Pink Spiked Punch quilt I’m making for my daughter. When my daughter went to QuiltCon with me in February, she was amazed by all the “pretty and fun things” she was seeing. Pati, at Marcus Fabrics, let her […]
