Early Holiday Quilt by Dizzy Quilts
Isabelle Jean of Dizzy Quilts is a fellow Montreal Modern Quilt Guild member and impressive quilter who, I am thrilled to say, has whipped up (she’s really quick too) this sweet Patio Quilt using each and every fabric from my Festive Forest collection. It really shows off the fabrics beautifully, looking like bright, clean windows […]
Festive Wreath Quilt
When I received yardage of Festive Forest just before the holidays, I knew right away I wanted to make a statement quilt with it, but I wasn’t sure just what. Something clean and bold. I started hunting for inspiration and found this image in sorry-I-forget-which holiday home decor magazine. That’s it! A big wreath on a […]
A Fun Festive Forest Table Runner
I’ll start this off by warning you, I’m pretty excited about this new happy fabric collection of mine, so it’s going to be a bit like Winter holidays in April here for a bit. Hope you enjoy! First up on the list of inspiring projects made with Festive Forest: A cheery table runner by Brooke Sellmann of Silly […]
Festive Forest
Things have been pretty sparse around this blog lately. My apologies, but I’ve been working away furiously for the past few months on a number of projects, none of which I’ve been able to share yet. Finally, however, there is a fun something that is finding its way out onto the market. It seems to […]
Quilting With Solids – Bloomin’ Quilt
Part 2 of my venture into the world of solids. We had a bout of grey days here a few weeks ago and I’m one of those people who feels the lack of natural light down to my core. Needing a pick-me-up, I decided to create a quilted garden in my sewing room. Like the […]
Quilting With Solids – Cobblestone Quilt
I love pattern! I know … big surprise. I thought however that it was about time I tried my hand at quilting with solids. Michael Miller’s line of Cotton Couture solids is so dreamy soft to work with and they just keep adding more & more colours to the range. They’re up to 150 now! […]
Valentine Quilts
Have you heard? Michael Miller Fabrics has a new valentine fabric collection, Sweetheart. I love a good heart fabric, so I was inspired to get creative when I saw the collection, along with a few other prints like their charming Cherry Dot. I decided that a couple Valentine themed quilts were in order. First, there’s “Lots […]
Machine Embroidered Boy’s Wallet Tutorial
Happy New Year, just a mere almost two weeks late! I hope you all enjoyed festive and relaxing holidays. It seems like I have been quilting and quilting and quilting lately, and not much else (not necessarily a bad thing). I finished up the latest one on my list last week (more on that next […]
Origami Oasis – Oasis Frolic Quilt by Jenn Topp
Jenn Topp is another Montreal-based quilter I have had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know through the Montreal Modern Quilt Guild. Her quilts that I have seen thus far are joyful, playful and colourful. She also has a little boy at home who shares his room with a 5ft tall giraffe, so I […]
Fiesta Lap Quilt
One of the new fabric lines by Michael Miller that made its debut at Quilt Market this fall is Fiesta. I love the warm Southwestern vibe, captured so beautifully in these Michael Miller mood boards. The chocolate colour way really caught my eye and inspired me to create an easy lap quilt. Whether you look […]
