I think its safe to say I’m nesting. I wake up tired, but get going anyway because I have a four year old who will stand there and tap on me until I’m up. Shortly after getting up, I’m tired and in need of rest. Then something happens in the evenings and I kick into...
After a quiet week last week, I’m back with another baby quilt. And let me tell you, its a good one! I definitely need it in throw size immediately. When I made this quilt a few weeks ago, I was unsure of what fabrics I wanted to use for the solid portions, so I ordered...

Welcome to Olivia Jane Handcrafted! I'm Meredith and this is my creative journal. Here you'll find loads of inspiration for a handmade wardrobe, home decor, bags, and quilts. I even have plenty of projects and tutorials to get you started or help you along the way.

I live in Michigan so I usually go for warmth.

Ocassionally I will use flannel for the back. But I really haven’t finished enough quilts/blankets to have a solid choice.
gorgeous quilt for a gorgeous babe!
he’s such a sweetie!!
