Finish #2! Let’s see… how did this one begin? Back when Jay McCarroll’s Habitat fabric line came out, I fell hard for the Painter’s Canvas print (you can get it here, and it’s on sale!) I actually think the whole…
A Smidge of Dr. Suess
Here we go! I’m rather excited to show you the first finish in my cleanup marathon! Before you get too admiring of my speedy skills, I must admit that this one had the top completely done, and the backing all…
House Quilt
Here’s my second quilt for the do.Good Stitches charity quilting bee. I can brag just a teeny-tiny bit about this quilt, cause most of the blocks were made by all the other talented quilters in my group. I think the…
It has been a rather long time…

Finished Basket Quilt!!
Just a note: I published this post yesterday, because I couldn’t wait to show it to you! Then Blogger went and lost it for me and although I was sweating for a bit, it’s now been restored. Only problem is,…
Nine Patch
This quilt is not rocket science. It is nine patch blocks surrounded by white sashing. Yes, I am doing my best to contribute to the loss of the art of quilting. (Insert evil chuckle) But, what this quilt lacks in…
Bowties
This quilt top sat on the shelf for six months. I contemplated not finishing cause it just wasn’t looking that exciting. I finally decided to finish it, and now it’s my favorite of all my recent finishes! Just goes to…
Puddytat Quilt
I went about making this quilt in a very different way. I pulled this Tweet Tweet fabric (by Michael Miller) out of my stash and decided I wanted to use it for a quilt back. So I made a quilt…
