I am so thrilled that this scrappy Log Cabin is finally pieced. I absolutely love it and can’t wait to get it basted and quilted. The Log Cabin blocks were made using scraps of fabric. The small, angled pieces were leftovers from the border strips from Persephone Awaits. I inserted them into leftover WOF stripsContinue reading “Log Cabin on the Wall”

Aether Quilts
I really enjoy when people share finished quilts they made using my patterns. I love to see how people put color together and make quilts their own. Celebrating the creativity of others is always a joyful occasion. Recently, a few quilters sent photos along and, just this morning, I realized I’d shared them on InstagramContinue reading “Aether Quilts”
Up Close and Personal with Aether
I’ve had a few requests to get close up looks at the fabrics I use in Aether, so I added this gallery. With the exception of the image at the bottom, because I forgot to take a photo of that square (gah!), the blocks are in order. You can see how I appliquéd the orangeContinue reading “Up Close and Personal with Aether”
Aether Quilt
My husband and I took a much needed vacation a few weeks ago. Just the two of us. We hadn’t had time alone since before the pandemic began, really, and we were so grateful to spend 4 days at our favorite bed and breakfast in Blowing Rock, NC. Before we left, I was determined toContinue reading “Aether Quilt”
Vintage Gone Kaffe
I’ve posted about this quilt a few times over the last several months. I thought I’d have this top finished before now but, alas, that wasn’t in the cards. I finished it yesterday and I’m beyond thrilled! This quilt was fun to piece, and I enjoyed working with colors that aren’t typically mine. I loveContinue reading “Vintage Gone Kaffe”
Kaffe Mini Swap
A friend of mine put together a Kaffe Fassett Mini Swap in July. I’m a huge lover of Kaffe fabrics so, of course, I had to participate! As usual, I waited until the last minute. I swear I do better work when I’m under pressure. Others may call me a procrastinator but I think myContinue reading “Kaffe Mini Swap”
Piecing it Together
I was able to get the parts of my Kaffe quilt arranged last week and am in the process of sewing the top together. I still need to cut the setting triangles but that shouldn’t take much time. Besides, I have to sew the diagonal strips first so what a little more work, right? IContinue reading “Piecing it Together”
Vintage Quilt Goes Kaffe
I am slowly making progress on the vintage quilt that I am recreating in Kaffe Fassett fabrics. You can see it here. I’m pretty excited about how it is coming together, too. The quilt is basically 9-Patch blocks, Half-Square Triangles and squares. Once the hst’s are pieced the blocks go together quickly. woot! The blocksContinue reading “Vintage Quilt Goes Kaffe”
Kaffe Block One
I bought a vintage quilt ten or so years ago. My best guess is that the quilt was made in the thirties. The quilting is impeccable and the stitches are so small. I’ve been wanting to make an updated version for a while but hadn’t figured out exactly how I wanted to do it. TheContinue reading “Kaffe Block One”
Quilt Retreat Prep
I’m going to a quilt retreat with my guild friends this weekend. Two days of sewing. No interruptions. This weekend couldn’t come at a better time, either. I have been stuck in the house because of snow/threat of snow/sick kids for twelve days and, well, it’s been stressful. And loud. To maximize my sewing time,Continue reading “Quilt Retreat Prep”
