A long time ago I created a TON of blocks for what was going to become my ugly string quilt. I quickly realized that entirely too much work goes into making a quilt for me to purposely make an ugly one. And my blocks weren’t turning out as nice as [...]
wow. I don’t remember the last time I did a giveaway, but I think it’s high time I do another.
What am I giving away? Well, how about a camera case (which can also be used for phones and iPods)?
Gotta love the cute little birdies fabric. [...]
I’m still working through Denyse Schmidt Quilts and I’ve decided to make one of the actual QUILTS instead of one of the mini projects.
As you’ve probably noticed, I’m kind of in love with square blocks created from strips (mendocino, wonky log cabin and repro fabrics). They’re easy. They’re [...]
Adria lent me her Denyse Schmidt Quilts book a while back and I’ve been slowly working on a few projects in it.
A while back I made a quilted heating pad cover and I’ve been meaning to work on some of the scrappy projects to get through my [...]
I’ve been obsessed with Wonderland by Momo ever since it came out. So, I’ve started working on two new projects with what I’ve got left.
I bought a jelly roll a while back and decided to make Thea’s Puzzle Quilt (a pattern by Amy Butler). I’ve got the middle section done, so [...]
I’ve been reading the Denyse Schmidt Quilts book that Adria let me borrow and saw the heating pad project and just HAD to do it. I hardly make anything for myself, but it annoys me that I have my heating pad out in the middle of my living room [...]
My grandpa had given me a bunch of things that my granny (great grandmother) had left behind when she passed in 2002. I’ve been using some of her materials (embroidery thread, fabric, pins, etc.) to create some of the things I’ve been making. I’ve had 10 quilt blocks that I’ve been hoarding that she had [...]
Again, going through my scrap box and found some scraps that Adria had given me from her Hello Betty quilt. I had enough left to make a large block and I decided to finally cover the 18″x18″ pillow form I’ve had lying around.
I did another wonky log cabin [...]
I took today off since I had to take my mancandy to the airport at an obscenely early time and wanted to sleep/clean/catch up on crafting the rest of the day.
Needless to say, I didn’t get a whole lot of cleaning done (I did put the dishes away!), but I got a little sleeping [...]
I blogged earlier today about the 2nd hardcore quilt top that I made.
Well, I took the plunge ladies and gentlemen. I officially quilted a full-size quilt.
I took photos of the process. One thing I learned — I desperately need a walking foot. I couldn’t find one for my machine (they were sold out [...]
Hi there. I'm Calee. Not Caylee. Also known as chimes or the chimes. I'm 27, a designer, a runner, a self-proclaimed fitness queen, a craftster, a foodie, a music snob — some might call me a hipster. Here's the unabridged version.
