I’m working at Rainbows and Calico Things quilt shop tomorrow through Saturday! Come see me and find lots of fun fabric and kits to buy!
Here’s an example of a kit, ready for you!
This fabric is the inspiration for a purple trip around the world I’m making.
Hope to see you there!

I’m sewing 2″ charms! My portable design wall is perfect to lay out the charms right next to my machine and sew together. I followed Mary’s sewing and pressing instructions and it went together great! The trick will be for me to repeat it.
My swap partners are sending me charms! It’s so fun to receive them in the mail, even if they arrive looking like this!
Not to fear, they were all in there! So, one block down and many more to go! Thanks to Mary at The Curious Quilter for organizing the swap. It has changed my behavior, I was checking the trash at our last retreat looking for salvageable scraps!
Check out Judy at Patchwork Times for other Design Wall Monday projects!
Thanks for looking and just keep stitchin’ !

Linda has created a table topper of her own design with applique borders and a broderie perse basket of flowers in the center and 3 corners.
The batting is Quilter’s Dream 100% cotton select, perfect for table toppers because it drapes well and is very flat. The thread is 2 colors of Superior OMNI.
Every part has a different element, so enjoy the pictures!
Linda’s very creative with her quilt backs!
Thanks for looking and have a Happy Mother’s Day weekend!

I finally finished my sister’s T-shirt quilt and presented it to her today! In my usual style, I folded the quilt with the label facing out and wrapped it with the selvage edges from the backing fabric.
It wasn’t a surprise, but I didn’t tell her that I had finally finished it. I had some time today so I came to her work to give it to her. I love how it turned out!
Here’s part of the secret message label. I “wrote” in reverse on the front, a message only readable from the back.
Making and giving quilts is such a happy occasion!
Thanks for looking. I’m linking up here!
Thanks for looking!
