  • New Flannel for a Quilt and Plans for It- Part 2

    January 11, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! In a post earlier this week, I talked about red and white flannel I purchased to make a quilt out of. In the same order, I purchased navy blue colored flannel and flannel with a marble print on it. Both flannels were on sale at Joann Fabric and Craft store when I placed the order. I originally wanted to make a blue and white quilt, but I decided to buy the marble printed one instead. Since I am talking about the flannel I purchased, I wanted to talk about the blue and marble flannels and how far along I am in deciding what kind of quilt pattern I…

  • New Flannel for a Quilt and Plans for It- Part 1

    January 9, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! Back in December, Joann Fabric and Craft store had a great sale on flannel. I wanted to make a flannel quilt for years, but I never purchased the fabric for it. When I saw the sale, I decided it was time to purchase flannel for quilts. In my order, I purchased four colors for two quilts. The first quilt is going to be red and white while the second quilt will be blue and light blue marble. I’ll talk about the blue and light blue marble fabric in a future post. As for the red and white, I wanted to talk about it and some ideas for quilt…

  • 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…

  • Paris Themed Main Quilt Fabric

    April 1, 2021 /

    Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I posted anything, but I have been sewing, drawing, and taking photographs. I just didn’t have the time to post anything. I’m going to try to change that this month and I will start by talking about a quilt based off Paris, France. Last year, before there was a rush on fabric due to the pandemic, I bought a lot of fabric from Walmart. One of the fabric designs I purchased has a Paris themed design. When I saw it in store, I liked the design, but I didn’t think I would ever use it. I decided to buy it anyway with the…

  • The Quest to Find Fabric for a 2020 Renaissance Festival Costume

    February 27, 2020 /

    It’s mid February and that means so many things, including the Arizona Renaissance Festival is open! I plan on going this year, but after years of illness and body weight/shape/size problems, none of my beloved costumes will fit me. I’m in the process of salvaging as many as I can, but to be honest I know I can’t save all of them. I plan to recycle the fabric I used to make the costumes I cannot save, but there are costumes I want to make but do not have enough fabric to make some of the costumes I want to make to wear to the festival. Because of this, I…

  • Fabric Spray Paint Test-Part 2

    March 8, 2018 /

    Hi everyone! A while ago, I wrote a post about testing how Tulip Color Works fabric paint works. This week, I wanted to talk more about how the paint worked when using a stencil. After my previous test and discovering the paint’s colors didn’t blend together like I planned, I wanted to see if I could use the paints with a stencil. I had an idea to use the paints with a stencil on a future project, but I would need to make the stencil myself. Since I couldn’t buy a stencil, I wanted to know what I could use to make the stencil that wouldn’t allow the paint to…
