  • Beach Scene Quilt Panels (And Some Potential Future Plans for Them)

    June 30, 2025 /

    Hi everyone! After the problems with my turquoise and grey log cabin quilt, I decided to take a break from sewing for a while. Even though I’m on a break from sewing, I decided to clean out parts of my house. This is when I found more fabric. Some of the fabric was not longer good fabric (It was faux leather and was deteriorating) there were many pieces that were good. I decided to sort through them and see which ones I wanted to make or give away. This is when I found quilt panels I purchased a few years ago to hang on my walls. The panels are of…

  • Tinyspool & Co. Cottagecore Jelly Roll Fabric Pack

    November 14, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! Last week, I talked about the Fall Harvest jelly roll fabric pack by Tinyspool & Co. I also mentioned it is not the only jelly roll fabric pack I purchased by the company. I also purchased a jelly roll fabric pack in the Cottagecore color way. I found the Cottagecore jelly roll on Amazon before I saw the Fall Harvest pack. I was really surprised there was a Cottagecore inspired jelly roll, or any quilt fabric pack in the first place. Normally, the fabric designs I find that are Cottagecore inspired are in colors, styles, and patterns I don’t really like. The TinySpool & Co. jelly roll had…

  • Tinyspool & Co. Fall Harvest Jelly Roll Fabric Pack

    November 7, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! Like many people, I am very busy this time of the year. November is normally a slower month for me (Except the week leading up to Thanksgiving) but this year I am busy. Along with a major months long organizing project, I am also currently repainting one of the rooms in my house. I am also trying a new diet that requires eating more made-from-stratch foods in order to avoid food allergies. With so many things going on in my life, I don’t have the time like I wish I do to sew, knit, or do anything I normally want to do with my free time. Even though…

  • Red, White, and Blue Quilt Pillow Case- Fabric Choices and The Color Shades

    May 23, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! This weekend is Memorial Day weekend, which is the unofficial start of Summer. I wanted to make a patriotic themed quilt for years, but I never felt ready to do it until this year. Even though I want to make a full sized quilt, I wanted to start with a throw pillow case. Here is the fabric I decided to use for the quilt… Sadly, the photograph is dark and doesn’t show the true shades of the red and blue fabrics. I tried to edit the photograph so it would appear lighter, but it didn’t work well. So, I decided to post the original dark photograph of the…

  • Pink and Green Log Cabin Green Fabric Replacement

    August 11, 2022 /

    After going through my photographs of the Pink and Green Log Cabin quilt, I found old photographs of the green replacement fabric. The fabric was purchased as a replacement to the original olive green fabric I used in the blocks. While sewing the blocks, I ran out of the fabric and needed to purchase new fabric. I couldn’t find the original fabric anymore, so I looked for a replacement that would match the original fabric’s color and not look out of place on the quilt. I found a nearly perfect replacement fabric at Joann’s not long after my search began. I originally thought I either deleted the photographs of the…

  • Pink and Green Log Cabin Quilt Fabric Choices

    May 31, 2022 /

    A few months ago, I talked about my intention to make a log cabin quilt out of scrap strips of fabric. After doing some shopping, I decided on the strip color I wanted to use first and what other colors I want to make using it. The first color of scrap fabric I picked was this olive green dragon fly fabric…   I decided to make the theme of the quilt pink and green. I thought of the idea after looking at an advertisement for the musical Wicked. In the musical, Elpheba’s skin is green and Glinda’s favorite color is pink. Because of this, advertisements for the musical include the…
