Remember Sweet Hearts?

As I was getting all my quilts ready to go back into the guest room closet now that my mom's gone home, I found the Sweet Hearts Quilt again. I really love this little quilt.

I've decided to make it available as a kit with the fabrics used in the pattern quilt.

Something free for you:
If you order the kit between now and the 31st, you get the pattern for free. Just mention that you saw this on the blog and I will refund you $8 straight back through Paypal after you've placed your order.

Happy Independence Day

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Spring Fling

This one has been in the works since the end of 2008 and is finally done.
I quilted it in two and a half hours on Thursday.

It's definitely a Spring to Finish project.

And the newest twiddletails pattern.
Back in August 2008 I made this quilt.

It was totaly improvisational and I loved it. I really wanted to turn it into a pattern but each block was completely different and that would be an issue.
So I played around with ideas a little and came up with the new one which, although it looks random, really isn't.

Remember that back I was working on?

I'm giddishly (is that a word?) happy with this pattern!
It's in the store right now.

Random logs

Here's what I did yesterday. I made this top quite a while ago. Wow, I didn't realize it was that long ago until I started searching for the post!

Yesterday I did the basting, quilting, and binding. And of course the washing and drying for the lovely, cuddly, wrinkly look.

I wanted the pastel log cabins to randomly float in the white background.


I actually bought backing fabric for this quilt, but penny-pinching me did not buy enough, so I still had to do some piecing. I always end up loving pieced backs though.

I l-o-v-e the little bunny fabric.

I purposely kept the quilting big and loose on this one because I wanted it to stay soft and plyable. The denser quilting is, the stiffer the quilt turns out.
