All the Petals Quilt
I fell in love with fellow Michael Miller Fabrics designer, Patty Slinger’s Flower Shop collection at Quilt Market last fall. So much so, I knew I needed to get my hands on a pile of it to make some pretty summery-looking quilt. Patty’s colour pallet & choice of imagery are right up my alley and […]
The Joyful Quilt
I feel this quilt deserves its own post. At a whopping 80″ x 100″, it is definitely the largest quilt I have made to date and I love it! The above photo gives you an idea of its immensity. Photographed in my 8 ft-ceilinged home, it JUST fit on my bedroom wall, pinned to the […]

A Couple More Frolic Quilts
A couple weeks ago I shared the first 2 of 4 quilts I made with FROLIC for Quilt Market. Today it’s time for the other two. As FROLIC is a pretty young, playful, bold collection, I wanted to create a quilt that worked along the same lines. My mind went to children’s sorting games where […]
