Modern quilt teacher and patterns
Whew, it has been a busy month of making quilts for the family!

I love that we got two charm packs, and… Read More
If you’re wondering where the next installment of the Modern HST Sampler is, you’re going to have to wait an extra week as May has five Mondays! Instead, let me share a different kind of triangle project I’ve been working on for the past few weeks. Fat Quarter Shop and Camille Roskelley have teamed up to bring you the Little… Read More
Ahhh, I finally have my hands on the Sew Sampler box from Fat Quarter Shop! When the team at Fat Quarter Shop emailed and asked if I’d like to help them launch their new club, the Sew Sampler box subscription, I was sooo on board! And when I started seeing them around the place on social media last week, I… Read More
