In conjunction with the Summertime Samplers, I’m showcasing some options for things you can do with the patterns other than just the quilts that are in the booklet, and offering some bonus patterns along the way — this is another one for you. I wanted to have this ready in early June; you know, Father’s […]

Summertime Dresser Scarf (and a correction)

Posted on April 13, 2019 by prairiemoonquilts in Summertime Sampler

Today I’m back with a bonus project that goes along with the Summertime Sampler Block-of-the-Month quilts — an embroidered dresser scarf!

Half-Square Triangles

Posted on October 13, 2018 by prairiemoonquilts in Summertime Sampler, Tutorials

Let’s talk about Half-Square Triangles for a bit, shall we? There are more methods for making them than you can shake a stick at!
