A Quilt for Grandma and Grandpa

I made this quilt for my husband's parents who live in rural Oklahoma. It was a fun project to make and visiting them was the best! All the fabric came from my stash and the pattern is a simple half square triangle. Thanks for looking :)

Pillow Covers

Just a few things I've whipped up lately. Stay safe!

Quilted Cushion Cover

It's the last day of playgroup tomorrow and I made this cushion cover for my boys' beloved teacher. We will miss her a lot. It was a fun project and I have more of them in the works ..

Quilt for Luke

There is so much joy when a new baby is born in your family. And this boy is the first for my brother and his wife. Welcome Luke! I made him this simple quilt in blues and yellows.

Pattern: Squared Quilt by Suzy Quilts.
Fabric: Ikea linen and quilting cotton.

Quilt for Theodore

It's been snowing here in Boston so I thought it was time to do a photoshoot. This quilt for Theo has been finished for a while. The blue and red fabrics are from M&L and I paired them with a thick beige sashing and red binding. My son chose the back fabric which he was really excited about. I made it twin size so hopefully he can take it to college one day. xx

Shibori Dyed Quilt Top

Happy 4th of July! I have been humming and harring about this quilt top and finally decided to dye it. I wanted to take some focus off the orange (think I've accompolished that haha!) I used a shibori dyeing method to dye a corner of it. The process was messy but fun. 

I am surprised at how well the quilt top handled being washed and dyed. One of the benefits of making something out of scraps is that you can experiment like this and see what happens. Can't wait to show you the pieced back..

Boy Quilt

Hi there. I've been making progress on my toddler quilt. I decided on big log cabin squares. These are about 14".

I've been distracted by another small project which I hope to show you soon. Have a great day :)

Modern Scrappy Quilt

I finished this quilt recently (remember this?) and am delighted with how it's turned out. The straight line quilting was a lot of work but I really love the effect. I have washed it so it's nice and crinkled. I've decided to put it in my store.

The quilt measures 36" by 47" and would make a great lap or baby quilt.

Thanks for reading xx

Have a great weekend!

Hi there. I've finished my latest quilt and plan to show you it next week. Here's a sneak peak though (isn't the little guy growing up?!)

Have a great weekend.

Move to Boston!

Hey! It's been a while but we've made our cross country move from California back to Boston. I'm so happy to be here, especially at this gorgeous time of year!

I'm working on this scrappy quilt and loving the straight line quilting. It's inspired by Modern Handmade's quilt found here.

Hope your summer is going well.

Scrappy Strip Project

This is my latest quilting project. It's a series of scrappy strips in long lines. I was inspired by Modern Handcrafts Read Between the Lines quilt. 

At present I think it will be a baby quilt but we'll see where this goes.

Thanks for popping in.
