Hobby Lobby Fall Cotton Fabric and My Problems Working it Into A Quilt
Hi everyone! During my current great big clean out, (In which I’m cleaning out all the stuff I’ve collected over the years but never had the time nor the energy to do so) I’ve been going through my fabric collection and decide which ones I keep and don’t keep. In the process, I find fabric that I bought, put away, and forgot. One of these fabrics is a cotton fall themed fabric I purchased from Hobby Lobby.

Space Themed Cotton Fabric- What the Fabric Looks Like & Plans
Hi everyone! Since I published my last post, I’m still trying to use Canva as my blog photo editing software program. It’s been interesting to say the least and I’m still slow about editing the photographs. For the past few weeks, I’ve been trying to edit photographs for posts. That hasn’t worked out as I hoped it would. So, I’m going to start publishing posts about the fabric I’ve been collecting for a few years. My plan is to talk about the fabric and what I plan on doing with them. I finished editing the photographs for these posts before I started to have software problems. The first of these…

The Navy and Yellow Log Cabin Quilt- The Completed Quilt
Hi everyone! After a bad month of setbacks and other problems, I finally have some time to write the last post about my navy and yellow log cabin quilt! Months ago, I finished quilting and binding the quilt. As of this post the turquoise and grey quilt still needs to be quilted, so I won’t be able to talk about this quilt’s sister in a post for a while.

The Navy and Yellow Log Cabin Quilt- Changing One of The Fabrics and How It Looks Now
Hi everyone! It’s been a month or so since I published a post about the navy and yellow log cabin quilt. Between the last post I made and this post, I haven’t been able to finish the turquoise and grey log cabin quilt. Even though the turquoise and grey quilt is not done, the navy and yellow quilt is! In this post, I wanted to talk about my decision to change one of the navy fabrics in my quilt and how it turned out. EDIT: I used two different watermarks in these photographs. One is for this blog, essieofwho.com, while the other one has the watermark I use for…

My Current Sewing Plans for 2025 (And Why There are So Many Plans for Quilts)
Hi everyone! It’s already July! I don’t know where the year has gone, but I am glad fall is coming soon. Although I enjoy fall, I love the temperatures most of all. As someone who lives in Arizona, I dread the hot summers. This is why the cooler temperatures of fall are a welcome relief to the heat. Since the year is halfway done, I decided to talk about some of my sewing plans for the rest of the year. I also wanted to talk about why I decided to add so many quilts to my to-sew list for 2025.

The Navy and Yellow Log Cabin Quilt- The Cut Strips and Block Sewing Progress
Hi everyone! It’s time to talk about a new quilt! Earlier this year, I began to work on another log cabin quilt using navy (Or blue depending on the fabric) and yellow fabric. I talked about this fabric in a previous post here. As of the publishing of this post, the blocks are finished, the quilting is finished, and the binding is finished. Like with my Turquoise and Grey quilt, I was worried about problems I would run into while making it. Unlike the Turquoise and Grey quilt, the Navy and Yellow quilt had a major problem. Explaining what happened and how I fixed it will take some time to…

The Patriotic Scrappy Quilt- The Fabric Choices
Hi everyone! The 4th of July is tomorrow! I’m excited to have a day off work. I’m also planning on eating steak and watching fireworks. This year, I planned on making a patriotic quilt. I bought the fabric and had a plan for it, but I didn’t move forward with it. Now that it’s the 4th of July, I’m a little disappointed I didn’t start on my quilt and can use it in my decor this year. Even though I’m disappointed, I wanted to share my plans in a post before I move forward with making the quilt.

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