Creating a Throw Pillow Case Out of Extra Turquoise and Grey Scrap Quilt Blocks
Hi everyone! In last week’s post about the turquoise and grey scrap quilt I was making, I mentioned I had one block left over from sewing the quilt top. Prior to working on the quilt, I decided that if I had any extra quilt blocks, I would turn them into throw pillow covers. Since I had one extra block for this quilt, I decided it would be be perfect to incorporate into a throw pillow cover!

The Turquoise and Grey Scrap Quilt- Plans for the Blocks
Hi everyone! While working on my turquoise and grey log cabin quilt, I began to realize I was getting too annoyed and frustrated about quilting it. In order to reset my brain (And to make me feel better about my sewing abilities) I began to take all the scrap fabric from making the top and began to sew a scrap quilt out of it. I decided to make it the same way as the navy and yellow scrap quilt. For that quilt, which I talked about here on this blog in posts here, here, and here, I cut the remaining fabric from creating the log cabin block design and made…

Sewing Plans for May 2026
Hi everyone! It’s a new month, which means it is time for me to start focusing on new sewing projects. I’ve been slacking on my sewing for the past few months due to a busy life and too many allergies. (This year seemed harder on me and my relative than last year. I don’t know why, but it has been!) Since I wasn’t able to focus on sewing these past few months, I let a lot of sewing projects fall to the waist side. In May, I’m hoping to start sewing like I needed to again. I have projects that require immediate attention (Pajamas!) and others that I want to…

I Found More NASA Fat Quarters at Walmart…
Hi everyone! During a recent shopping trip at Walmart, I decided to stop by the fabric section to see what type of fabrics are available to buy. That’s when I found out the Walmart I was shopping at has fat quarters with a NASA design on it. When I saw it, I was both happy and a little annoyed. I’m happy to see the fabric back in stock. I like the fabric and wanted to buy a few fat quarters (Or a yard or so depending on the availability) for my stash, but the store didn’t carry it for quite some time.

Space Scrap Quilt Progress: The Full Sized Blocks
Hi everyone! This is the last post of my Space Scrap Quilt featuring old progress photographs! Just as a reminder, the quilt top is complete, but it still needs to be quilted and sew a binding to it. I will talk more about that in my next quilt post. For this post, I want to show what the blocks looked like at their full size.

An Update on the McCall’s M8029 Sew With Me Video- Current Plans and Where the New Video Is
Last year, I published a post about a video I posted on YouTube. The video was about how I made McCall’s pattern M8029. It wasn’t well received because it didn’t have a lot of details on how to sew the pattern. Even though I changed the title to say it wasn’t a tutorial, it still wasn’t well liked. So, I decided to take it down and planned on making a new video. It’s been over a year since I did this, but I haven’t uploaded a new video. I thought I would be able to release a new video about the pattern, but I didn’t. Since the video is taking…

The Space Scrap Quilt Blocks are Coming Together!
Hi everyone! I wanted to share some old progress photographs of my space scrap quilt! As of this post, I have finished the top of the quilt, but still need to quilt it and bind the edges. Then it will be done! Anyway, I still have some old progress photographs I never shared on this blog. So, I decided to share some of them in this post. There will be another post after this one with old progress photographs before I talk about the finished quilt top.
