Another milestone reached. All 10 rows sewn, now to sew them together into the final top! And for a little “snack” break, I bought a couple of really cute kits from Hatched and Patched.

Storm at Sea milestone
72 nine inch blocks completed! I got a notification from my photo app that i started printing the shapes on fabric FOUR YEARS AGO. It’s fine. We're here now and I’ve already begun sewing the first row together.
Storm at Sea progress
I’ve stalled a bit on this quilt, so decided I needed to see what the final top would look like. I laid out most of the completed blocks on the spare bed to get an idea. Laying it out helped a lot. I like the way it’s looking. For a while there, I wasn’t sure… Continue reading Storm at Sea progress
Indigo Star Quilt Revisited

Right!So I recreated the original pattern in EQ7 so I… Continue reading Indigo Star Variations
Alabama Chanin Swing Skirt
So last year, there was a sale on some DIY kits at Alabama Chanin and I just couldn't resist ordering the swing skirt. I chose peacock fabric and slate thread. I've sewn the first panel (out of four), and have just started to cut out the centers. Three more to go and a mystery quilt… Continue reading Alabama Chanin Swing Skirt
