Not the kind of lottery that involves money, unfortunately, but still awesome all the same!
I recently participated in FatQuarterShop.com‘s Jolly Jabber Block Lottery (see my entry here)… and I won! I get 1/3 of the blocks sent in.
Here’s my bounty of blocks (you can only [...]
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 [...]
A while back I was going to participate in a charm pack swap on craftster, but didn’t realize that I had to complete a swap before I can do two at a time … and I really wanted to rock the metal swap (which I blogged about earlier in the summer).
Anywho, I [...]
I reserved this afternoon for some crafting. I had a few mugs to make and I had a couple ideas for some bags.
Here’s the first thing I came up with. I totally forgot the closure, but I’ll figure that out later. I will be making 3 more of these. I’ve got 2 done and [...]
I recently participated in a heavy metal swap on craftster.org. This was the first organized craft swap I’ve done through the site, and I think it turned out pretty well.

I’ve just been posting quilt tops on my blog so far, but this is the first FULLY completed quilt. I posted the quilt tops for this one a while back.
I had given the top and the backing/binding to my good friend Adria to get it quilted since my machine [...]
I realized that I’ve kind of taken on a lot of projects this month…
Just to keep myself sane and to have some ppl hold me accountable (ie. my oh-so-loyal blog readers), I’m listing them and will hopefully remember I have this list so I can add to it and cross stuff off as things [...]
I’m new to quilting, but for whatever reason, I’ve decided I must learn how to paper piece…now.
It started last weekend when I was looking for a pattern for this block in the Amy Butler quilt that Adria gave me with blocks from her lap quilt swap on
I’ve been sewing profusely this week and have crafted up 8 little zipper bags ala Moda Bake Shop’s awesome tutorial. I used scraps of this incredible fabric that Adria had given me after her log cabin mermaid quilt was completed. Wow, [...]
I can’t ever wait until a project is completely finished OR until I have good pictures of it…I guess I’m super impatient (how I do quilting…don’t ask!)…
I’ve been hoarding this jelly roll of Hello Betty fabric for over a month. I’ve been looking for an easy pattern for a jelly roll [...]
