Production in the Quilt Cave

It feels great to be back in the Quilt Cave with Her!! 



I’ve been instructed to make a wonky log cabin! Wonder who gave me that order?? ☝🏻 

Can’t wait to see how these blocks end up! 


I do love me some flannel with plaid!!

Happy sewing

Pink polka dots

Still on fire, procrastinating cleaning my house, I finished the pink pinwheel baby quilt today.  This was one of those I have a vague idea what I want it to look like quilts.  It my head it was  cute frolicking pinwheels.  However I made the blocks too big and it looked a little pepto-bismally.  I don't rip things apart so I just went with it. I quilted about every inch and a half with grey straight lines and that really toned down the overwhelming pink.  So I present to you Pepto Pink Polka Dot Pinwheels.

On fire ( not literally)

I'm on fire!!! I finished up this rail fence baby quilt today. I've decided baby quilts are my thing right now because that's about the size my attention span can handle ( plus I don't feel like I'm wrestling a pig when I lay one out by myself).  Of course it doesn't line up properly in some spots but I'm good with that. What's in the works with you ladies?  Her

Getting back online

So I'm trying to getting my crafty sewing self back online( literally and figuratively) so I've been doing projects that don't require a lot of thinking.  First, I crocheted some toques for the Lighthouse and the Blessing Box.

Next, I dug out a bag of fabric that Julie had been gifted which had been living in my garage.  I made a basic strip quilt of many different types of fabrics I normally don't quilt with.  We'll call it functional.


Finally, I was unpacking a box and found a ziplock back that the Crafter must have put together.  I made a wonky log cabin that I quilted in random straight lines.  I love it.
That's a quick update! What have you been up to, Me?

My kind of quilting

Quilt Magic

This is the first one I did.

This is what gets delivered to you in the kit. All you need is scissors and a butter knife.
 This is how that one turned out.
It just adds something different to my snowman craft collection.
