“It’s only a top” was the remark my quilt holder made as we stepped outside to take photos today. Good thing he was already holding the quilt top! The border makes me smile. It works so well with the rest of the fabrics I used- probably because it’s another print from Tula Pink! The inner…
November is flying by! Here’s a quick look at what’s new around here and waiting for my attention. The panel I bought at the Fibre Festival last month is perfect for Pat Sloan’s latest challenge – machine quilting! Her new book arrived and now I need to make time to try it. More new fabric…

My little town’s Fibre Festival was wonderful this year. So many amazing vendors to enjoy and a quilt show too! The Carver King’s were in town too and carved a beautiful bench of our town’s mill and landscape – millscape? This was my favourite quilt at the show. I read the quilt’s tag but forgot…

I’m back to share some progress on my Churn, Baby, Churn Dash quilt. In my last post I showed the fabrics I selected for the churn dashes. I finally got some deadline quilting done and focused again on this quilt. I spent two, one hour sessions making the last 6 churns I needed. I posted…
This is me not showing you a completed Churn Baby Churn Dash quilt! Life got busy, I got distracted and then I decided to work on another project with a deadline first. Here is my bin of churn dash fabrics, covered with the new Quilt Sampler magazine and some selvage squares. If you read my…
