Quilted fabric project

I took Angela Walter's craftsy class called Machine Quilting Negative Space and I loved it. I practiced my swirls and leafs on this piece of fabric and decided to make a zip pouch with it. I had a vintage metal zipper that fit perfectly and I really love the look. I won't be scared to try out new quilting styles on swatches anymore, now that they have found a use!

Parson Gray Quilt

I pieced this quilt top together using Parson Gray's Seven Wonders fabric. This was a fat quarter bundle I won from 100 billion stars blog last year. And of course in the eleventh hour began quilting it...

Hand sewing binding into the night on the 24th of December...

Finishing just in time for my brother to open on Christmas morning! He loved it.



My finished quilt...

Painting with Antonio

My oldest Antonio loves doing things with me. Today we decided to paint together since it is very cold outside. He chose to paint some of his favourite angry birds.

I chose to paint a random pattern.

I love painting when I run out of patchwork ideas. It really helps free up some of my best work!

busy busy busy!

These winter months seem to be flying by! I have been sewing as much as possible in order to be ready. We are also having family come so I likely won't be sewing to the last-minute. 

Here are some photos of my Starbucks gift card collection organizer. I made this for myself and absolutely love it!

Biye' Quilt

This is my newest work Biye' quilt. The Navajo to English translation is "his son." This is a quilt for an old friend who is expecting her first child.

The quilt is backed with a soft and cuddly minky which will keep the baby warm during the winter season.

Marcelle Update

I decided to add borders to the top and bottom of my Marcelle Medallion Quilt. Here is the first row!

Equilateral Triangle Quilt

I finished the Equilateral Triangle Quilt I started at Sewing Summit in September. I think it is so beautiful just like the little one I made it for. She loves it of course!


And here is my little group of monkeys enjoying it with her.
