Today isn’t quite the last day of 2014, but for whatever reason, it all seems so very ominous to me. December has been a rather quiet month on the blog, so I suppose I feel the need to write something profound or elegant here to wrap things up. Not that I have a clue what...
Its been quiet here lately, but I’ve been busy with my machine. I made several Liberty + faux leather bags and did a little sale on Instagram. While I forgot to take pictures of most of the custom bags prior to sending them to their new homes, I did manage to get some of the...
First, let me start off by saying, yes, I do still blog here. I’ve been crazy busy with custom orders, and I’m showing you one of those today. One of my very best customers asked me to make her a quilt with the same zoo fabric featured in this quilt. She loved that print, but...
I wanted to show you my finished Opposites Attract Quilt in Alison Glass’s Handcrafted line, which will be at Market this weekend in her booth! I hand quilted this beauty pretty densely with Perle cotton in the same color order as the quilt was pieced. I love that the colors pop without being overwhelming or...

That first patchwork bag is too cute, that went pretty fast! The faux leather you use in your bags is so crisp and polished in the pictures. It’s a material I’ve thought about working with in the past but haven’t taken the plunge. I’d also love to knwo more about your little bit of a quilt along as I’m launching my newest project QuiltAlong.net that is a directory of quilt alongs. Get in touch so I can add you to it! Cheers!
The workmanship on the bags is incredible…so precise and filled with the most thoughtful details!!!
I am the incredibly proud new owner of that gorgeous floral bag. I LOVE it!! I have been looking around your blog, and I am so excited to have an adorable new blog to follow!
Yay! Your mother-in-law was so excited to gift it to you! I’m so glad you like it. :)
