I Wish You a Merry QAL - Block 3 Tutorial

The I Wish You a Merry QAL is moving right along! Today, both blocks 3 AND 4 are being released!

I designed Block 3 - Santa's Belt. The block is made with traditional piecing only and sews up quickly (a huge plus since there are two blocks this fortnight!). The block would be great for making into Christmas pillows!

DIY Solar Eclipse T-Shirt Tutorial

Did you see the solar eclipse?!? Tell me you saw it! It was amazing!

My husband and I would not be offended if you called us "nerds" or "geeks." We fit the profile! If it has to do with math or science, we're there!

Batiks Go Modern

I've known for months what I wanted to make for this month's Island Batik Ambassador challenge. Then when I got my new shipment of Island Batik fabric a couple weeks ago, I completely changed my mind!

Retreat Sewing

This past weekend, I was able to sew all day and night at a quilt retreat! Have you ever been to a quilt retreat? They are great for being productive, but they are also so wonderful for your mental health!
