I was so excited to read that Plum and June are hosting a new monthly Quilt Photography Workshop linkup! It's a great way to get a monthly challenge and continue to improve on my photography skills. I've been really burned out on photography lately, but this inspired me to take my camera out for *fun* for the first time in over a year (in my non-quilting life, I'm a wedding photographer). I can't think of a better morning than taking some fabric photos. This is my pull for my picnic game … [Read more...]
WIP Wednesday: New Projects Galore
The past week has been light on the sewing time and heavy on the planning time. Perhaps it's the promise of fall and thoughts chilly nights under a quilt (or ten!) that has brought on this onslaught of inspiration. Here are a few of my current projects and a few more that I'm starting this week: Picnic Quilt If you saw my weekend post, you got a sneak peak of my scrabble block! If you ever want a taste of losing it, sew together 225 1.5-inch squares into a board game layout. I have been not as … [Read more...]
Weekend: In Progress
It’s a Wrap! Baby D Chevron Quilt Finish

And what fun is a quilt photoshoot without a dog photo-bomb?! … [Read more...]
Exposed! My Current Stash
I just started following a super fun quilting blog called Sarah Quilts. She posted pics of her fabric stash and asked others to join in. "You show me yours, I'll show you mine"! I pulled everything out of the back of my closet and although I see it every day when grabbing clothes, it just seems bigger all out there in the open. This is hopefully the biggest my stash will be. I know it doesn't look like much, but I live and work in under 200 square feet and my fabric stash currently takes up … [Read more...]
WIP Wednesday: On my bind
After auditioning tons of fabrics from my stash for the binding of the baby D chevron quilt (that just weren't quite right), I found these sweet little red polka dots hiding in the corner of my closet. I don't know if I should be really excited I found them, or concerned about my hoarding :) Baby D still has not made his/her grand entrance, so I think I will get this done in time. I think the baby will like the dots. Let's just ignore the fact that it looks like I'm sewing crooked :) I'm sure … [Read more...]
