    Loving the block party, never made a quilt before and your tutorials make it so easy! Thanks from Scotland, where September can be pretty chilly sometimes so night times are definitely a time for being cosy in the house

    Hi working on block 7 I tried to find were you signed up for the giveaway I can’t find it. Help if I am not to late. Today is September 27 2020. Have been looking on all you sites. I obviously I am not very computer savvy and can’t find it. I am loving doing the blocks looking forward to finishing all of them. The flying geese was a little hard for me, and I am a quilter. I accidentally sewed one of the flying geese the wrong direction and had to rip it out and redo it.This is been keeping me busy during the pandemic because I haven’t been working. Hope everything is fine for you and your family in Florida.

A quick project to play with your quilt cotton scr A quick project to play with your quilt cotton scraps! You can use this method on ANY appliqué design. Just grab some decovil light remnants, pretty material, a fun design and stitch it on to your bag! Easy peasy 😊

Designs used are the following:
- Small Magic Maker Appliqué stitched on the Mini Wish Tote. Both available in @shopoklaroots

It’s happening… I’m entering my QUILTING ERA PART It’s happening… I’m entering my QUILTING ERA PART 2! Or maybe it’s part 3….

But we’re getting back to quilting, baby! Woo! 

This has been a topic of conversation in my DMs for over a year now, and I miss quilting with you all so much. We’re tip toeing back into it, so I’m trying some new-to-me techniques before we dive into the next quilt along. 

I’ve tried Foundation Paper Piecing a couple times, and completely failed at it. I don’t know why I just couldn’t wrap my head around this method. I’m still by no means an expert, but I made this adorable Hopeful Rabbit quilt block from Snuggle Puzzle Quilt Co and it actually turned out! This is so exciting!

Follow along in this week’s YouTube tutorial to see how it came together. And yes… I’m totally hooked. There will be more FPP to come!

This bag is SO GORGEOUS! This was another one of This bag is SO GORGEOUS!

This was another one of this “Did I actually make that?!” moments, and I’m here for it!

The Tough Love Handbag from @sewnideaspatterns is soooooo chic, even a little bougie honestly. It’s a beautiful shape and great design, and the material combinations are endless. 

Have fun!

There’s something about the end of winter that rea There’s something about the end of winter that really messes with my feelings. As I look toward spring I get this intense wave of inspiration and excitement, but also feel overwhelmed and lacking. I see artists and business owners showcasing their vibrant new projects. There’s so much color and soothing pastels and brilliant ideas, and I LOVE it but also feel like maybe I’m not keeping up. I fill this notebook with ideas for projects, but then get irritated that there’s no time to get them to fruition. 

And the thing is, I AM doing a lot. I know I am. I’m working tirelessly on my own projects that won’t be seen for weeks, months, or even a year. And I know when these projects can be shared, it will THEN look like I’m doing so much. 

So if you’re feeling similar, just know you’re not alone. Sometimes the work takes awhile to pay off. Sometimes the work is never seen, but still necessary. We all feel like maybe we should be doing a little more, from time to time. Be proud of what you’ve already accomplished. It’s significant.
The cutest tote bag pattern has been UPDATED! You The cutest tote bag pattern has been UPDATED! You know how much I love to write a solid, basic foundation bag pattern. And then continuously make updates to it, sometimes so many it evolves into a whole new design 😂 (lookin at you, Picnic Pouch). 

But my quirks are your gain! Because when I update and modify a design, all previous purchases of that pattern get the update for free 😱

This update to the Totes Cute Tote pattern includes instructions for modifying the handles and adding a lining. It’s a more professional look to a very simple bag. 

And I have ooooooone more idea for those handles 🤔  Stay tuned!
