  • Bobbin’s Miracle Clue 3

    If there is one thing I can remind you, it would be we are sewing together. I had a hard time wording the second block in this clue… please be patient and ask if you don’t understand. It really is easy, I think I am just over thinking the wording! Bobbin is still doing AMAZING!…

  • Bobbin’s Miracle Clue 2

    This is our second installment for our monthly mystery. Every quilt has a story and you can find Bobbin’s story on the requirements page. Let’s just say, she is our miracle teeny weeny… This clue is WAY easier than clue 1 with no curves or special tools! ENJOY… only five blocks this month… Let’s see…

  • Classic Vintage Clue 5

    FINALLY! Here is that last clue for this vintage design. It has gone through many re-design and changing up placement from the original. You may have to just play and use your imagination where you want to lay your designs out. Mine will be like the square and I changed up the crossed canoes. These…

  • Classic Vintage Clue 4

    Here are a couple more blocks for our vintage quilt with classic/vintage blocks throughout the centre. I love this! We only have one more clue, then we are ready to assemble. We are now “this close” to being finished. This week brings two more vintage blocks, a saw-tooth star and the rail fence block. Let’s…

  • Classic Vintage Clue 3

    Here we are with another clue for our vintage design. I chose to toss the crossed canoes and block b in this clue replaces those. Easy and fun! Can’t wait to see your blocks for this clue! Remember, we are sewing together. If you find an error, please pm or email me.

  • Classic Vintage Clue 2

    This design has been through the ringer recently with several different “updates”. I know the crossed canoes were giving me fits, so I knew they would bother you as well. We had SEVERAL to do, so I decided to save the frustration and do something else in their place. These are NOT the ones we…

  • Classic Vintage Clue 1

    I am excited that you all love the Bethlehem Star so much! It is included in this clue for our vintage design. I love the block and I love the complex look with the ease of the HSTs and flying geese units. I am looking forward to seeing your fabrics as we put this together.…

  • Challenging Myself

    I tend to stay in my “comfort zone” with my designs. I’m sure you know if you make one of my designs, you will make a star or two along the way. They are my favourites and I am always including them in my quilts. I challenged myself yesterday to design something with no stars…

  • Finally Time!

    Today I did all the little work… the stitching that comes before the big finish. I worked on HSTs, flying geese units, and some tri-recs units. I had enough time in my sewing room to get these all assembled and trimmed to square. I also got one block finished to make sure my math brain…

  • Better Day!

    The computer went to the shop today (Monday) and I am really excited to get it back. I am not sure what is wrong with it, but very thankful for our daughter and her willingness to loan me her computer. We all have apple products, so I could bring everything down from the cloud and…
