Hello Friends, I hope you have had a good week, and a good year actually, and with lots of quilting squeezed in.
My year has been extremely busy so far, and I have been working on various things that I hope to share with you soon!
First of all, I thought you might like to see a recent cross stitch finish! I started this in 2021 and am so glad it is now complete! I had stitched this piece with colors from my Indigo thread collection.
The thread collection is 50% off at the moment. You may purchase the collection here.
I am seeing more and more quilters dabble in cross stitch lately! If you are considering stitching, check out the offerings at Fat Quarter Shop HERE.
***
I feel like spring just zipped by this year, and we have already had our bout of over 85F! That means it’s time for red/white/blue projects! I am happy to share my Flag Day quilt!
Click here for Old Glory fabrics.
***
Have you seen this absolutely gorgeous quilt kit using my pattern Maisons de Patchwork? If you start now, you will be able to have an autumn quilt to usher in the cooler weather later this year! I love the fabrics – they certainly give off Liberty vibes!
Click here to purchase the kit. Kit includes pattern.
***
This next week… I will be working on finalizing a few of my commercial patterns, and there is more sewing planned! And my daughter will finish her school year soon, and that’s when my summer busy-ness begins!
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a great weekend!

Hello my friends! Happy Monday to you all. It’s Month #3 for our Christmas All Year Round Quilt Along using the different blocks in my Christmas book!
A few housekeeping details:
#1. Click HERE if you missed the post with all the pertinent details!
#4. Share your blocks on social media and use hashtag #ChristmasAllYearRoundQAL.
#5. Be sure to watch Pat Sloan on YouTube! She is sewing along! Pat already showed her Month 3 video HERE. Click to watch!
Today we are making 2 blocks from the Once in Royal David’s City quilt – pages 21 to 24 in the book.
Here are my blocks:
You can mix in different fabrics for this block. I used 4 different greens and 2 different reds for each block.
You will also quickly find that the blocks aren’t difficult to make in case you want to make a whole bunch more to make my Once in Royal David’s City quilt!
I only used two fabrics in my original quilt. But this quilt design is perfect for using HST units you have saved from previous projects for a scrappy look!
Thank you for sewing #ChristmasAllYearRound QAL with me! I shall see you on May 15th for our Month 4 blocks!
***
Today is also the kick-off day for #PieceandQuiltSampler QAL at Fat Quarter Shop.
All the details are on FQS’s website. Click here for details.
Here is my block from the first two assignments. I am using Moda’s Chickadee Landing fabrics for my quilt. I will probably bring in other reproduction fabrics as I go along to make this quilt a scrappy quilt.
Check out Chickadee Landing fabrics HERE.
Piece and Quilt Sampler quilt is a skill building sampler quilt. I hope you will join many quilters to make this quilt!
***
And on that note, I want to thank you for stopping by today! This week for me will be another busy one playing catch up, and it’s all good! Take care, my friends! Till next time.

Hello my friends, I hope you had a blessed Easter, and today is check-in #1 for Sweet & Spiffy QAL! I am very excited to make this quilt with you! This is another low-stress and low demand QAL because that’s the only kind I can do at this juncture of my life! Please do not feel like you have to constrain yourself to my proposed schedule. You just sew at the pace that works BEST for you!
SUMMARIZED DETAILS
If you are just hearing about the QAL, click HERE for details.
Finished quilt size is 72 1/2″ square.
Pattern —
You may check with your local quilt shops for printed pattern.

Kit —
Pattern is included with the kits! Check with your local quilt shops, or the following stores are stocking the kits as well:
Missouri Quilt Company link HERE. Currently out of stock. I don’t know if they are restocking.
WE ARE HERE –> April 5: Test Block
So for today, we are just going to make one (test) block by following the instructions in the pattern.
Here is a link for you to download a larger block diagram for your notes.
In testing the pattern, I have made a few blocks. Here they are. For me, the slightly trickly part is the seam orientations of the yellow and purple pieces. Otherwise, everything else is pretty straightforward.
And that’s it…. one test block, easy peasy!
I moved the next check-in date from April 15 to April 17 because I have already committed to two QALs that day. One is my Christmas All Year Round QAL, and the other is Piece and Sew Sample Quilt along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop.
Soooo, I will see you in 12 days when we will make all the corner units for the pieced blocks. They are the same for all the colorways. I thought it would just be easier to make those all at one go.
Thank you for sewing along with me! Have a great weekend!

Hello my friends! I hope you have had a good week. It’s an exciting day today — we get to kick off our Christmas All Year Round Quilt Along using the different blocks in my Christmas book!
A few housekeeping details:
#1. Click HERE if you missed the post with all the pertinent details!
#4. Share your blocks on social media and use hashtag #ChristmasAllYearRoundQAL.
#5. Be sure to watch Pat Sloan on YouTube! She is sewing along!
Today, we are making 3 wreath blocks. You may choose to make the wreath blocks with or without the kitties. Instructions are on pages 5-8 of the book.
I am only shopping my stash for the fabrics that I will be using for my QAL quilt. I don’t have a background fabric piece large enough for the entire quilt. But I do have small background pieces here and there from previous projects. I have GOT to work down my fabric stash, haha. And my quilt will be scrappy!
So, here are my blocks! You will notice I used a low volume cat print for the background fabric for my wreath with kitty block!
And just like that, we are done for this month’s blocks. Next month, we will work on the alphabet blocks! Meanwhile, if you have liked making these blocks, you might just make more and actually make the quilt in the book!
Thank you for making my Christmas All Year Round quilt with me! Have a great day. See you again on 3/15!
