Stepping Stones Christmas table runner

At the Let’s Bee Social this week, I shared a mock up of the Stepping Stones block in red and green. And that was it…. I just had to make one! The pattern has been added to my shop here. The block finishes at 10″ square and the pattern includes instructions for making the block […]
Black Birds {Redo x2}

This is the third time I have made this Black Bird quilt design. I had listed my first Black Bird baby quilt in my Etsy shop and it sold at the end of June. I made the second Black Bird quilt to help promote the pattern. Although I did not list it for sale, I did […]
Farm Friends

This quilt is really near and dear to my heart. In addition to the Forest Friends and the Jungle Friends designs, of course, it was only fitting that I would eventually come up a design that truly reflects my rural setting. Meet Farm Friends! Along with the Flowers quilt that I showed you last week, […]
Flowers {make me HAPPY!}

Finally. I have a finish to share! This is the Flowers quilt. It was finished this past week. And on Wednesday I finally was able to install the plywood panels on the side of the “new” old hay wagon so that I can display my quilts outside for a photo shoot. Here is an […]
Trunk Show in my own home town of Stratford

IPM Quilt Show – Success!

Yes! The IPM Quilt Show this past weekend turned out to be a rousing success! No, I did not sell ALL my patterns… Although I did sell quite a few. Those Black Birds were the biggest draw! But what really made me feel this event was such a successful one? The PEOPLE!!! […]
Black Birds in Blue {redo}

Before I realized that I would be manning a vendor booth at the International Plowing Match in Harriston in August, I had listed my Black Bird baby quilt in my Etsy shop. And it sold at the end of June. Because the Black Bird pattern has been one of my more popular patterns, I wanted […]
