    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.

This bag is SO INCREDIBLE! The Hellcat Crossbody This bag is SO INCREDIBLE! 

The Hellcat Crossbody from @the.crafty.reporter is such a fun one to make. Not only is it enjoyable, it’s also a pattern that will teach you SO much.

I’ll be honest, I avoid piping 😬 I’ve tried so many different types and it’s always been difficult and always looked a lil wonky. UNTIL AMBER’S PIPING! The instructions for this were so well written and the bag came together so smoothly, I now have more confidence in this technique.

So if you’re a little intimidated by this technique or this style, give it a try! Take your time, enjoy each step, and have fun making a bag.

Happy Monday friends!

Time for giveaway Bundle 2! 

To enter this giveaway, answer the following question in the comments: What is your favorite month of the year? If you had to pick... Are you a clean-it-all-out-start-anew January lover? Cozy and comfy Christmas December darling? Spooky fall fun October fan? 

This is actually a tough question for me, I like each and every month for different reasons. But if I had to pick, I think October would be my favorite. The fall crisp evenings, orange trees and sky, decorating the house for the end of year cozy season. It just feels like a hug.

Let's get on with the giveaways!

The next 7 giveaways are an assortment of items from my craft room and recent purchases. It's going to get wild around here!

I'm calling this Bundle number 1!

Ok, question to answer for this one is the following:

🤔 What was the first bag you sewed that used a pattern? Not a self drafted pattern or something you made up when you were younger. Really think on this and see if you can remember the exact bag. If you can't recall, just tell me one of the first bags you remember making. Tag the designer as well and show them some love!

The first bag I made was the Petal Pouch from @noodlehead531 . I remember a quilter friend shared a photo of making about 10 of them at once, and I thought they were the most beautiful little zipper pouches I'd ever seen. I never worked with a zipper at that time, I only quilted, but I was determined. 

And I still have that bag! And many many more of them. It's still a go-to pattern of mine.

This week’s tutorial is for the Carry-All Bag from @shop_inthe_clouds , and I think you’re going love making this.

This is a fantastic size for a backpack, travel, and general home organization. I could use them for storing my tools, my kids would definitely use them as pencil bags, and obviously lining a few of these up in the suitcase would be so helpful.

Enjoy!

Stay tuned for the next fun bundle giveaway this week!

Ok friends, I have a room FULL of giveaway bundles that have got to GO. So let's roll in 2026 with back-to-back giveaways. 

This entry is for the large bundle of quilt blocks, pieced bits, and jelly roll strips. This would be great for anyone getting into quilting and interested in a scrappy look. This would also be great for a quilt guild to share and add their own assortment of quilt blocks from exchanges. 

Quilt blocks can obviously be used to make quilts, but you can also piece them together to create bag panels. Just make sure the pieced block is large enough, add some woven interfacing, maybe a bit of decovil light, and you have a unique bag!

To enter just comment an emoji or one word to describe your hope for 2026. No explanation needed, unless you want to give one. 

Mine is 🥳 : I'm going to make it a priority to pay attention to and celebrate other people's wins. It's always been the most touching feeling when someone notices an accomplishment of mine, even a small one, and I need to do better at giving that back to the community.

This week’s tutorial is going over the most luxuri This week’s tutorial is going over the most luxurious last minute scrappy wallet. Do those descriptions really all work together? Yes… yes they do. 

The Calista Wallet from @the.styled.magnolia is a beautiful little make that looks chic, but is also easy to make. My favorite combo! It has 4 card slot pockets, a small zipper pocket, a hidden slip pocket and a tab to keep it all tucked together neatly. And it comes in 3 different designs!

This would be a great little make for any 2026 family trips… or maybe the OklaCruise?? 🤔

Happy Christmas everyone!
