Modern quilt teacher and patterns
Oh yes, more Japanese preschool bags! I really actually enjoy making these – each set is different in sizes and requirements. For example, this set also needed an apron, a cooking hat and a mask! I was scared of this apron. At first I thought I was going to have to make an “art smock” type, but then I saw… Read More

And play a little catch up because there’s some blocks I’m pretty proud of from last year! For January’s Wombat Stew… Read More
Last year, I put a call out for pattern testers and was overwhelmed by how many of you were interested!! The first pattern to be put to the test was my Fairy Tale Castle block. I just loved seeing how different people interpreted the block in different ways through their choices of fabric! I now have two more patterns currently… Read More
It’s Sew Cute Tuesday! That means it’s Tuesday and my husband will be arriving home tonight from a business trip! Which has of course meant that kids have gotten sick, been quick to tears because of missing daddy, you know, the usual.

Although I do refuse to admit how many that still is… It also meant… Read More
I seriously love this swap. Like, seriously.
