Christmas Quilting
Tonight, as I write this, I am knee deep in Christmas quilts. I think I was just raised that if it's Christmas then there are blankets and quilts to be made. And this year is no different. This is whats up on the quilting frames right now: It's for my grandparents and is made from some darling fabric (that is so cheery that just looking at it makes me happy) from Micheal Miller. Next month I have a tutorial put together that will show you how to make this super easy quilt. I don't ... View the Post

My Own Quilt Frames
I love quilts. I always have. Even as I'm writing this I am snuggled under a quilt made by my mother-in-law. If you were to come into my home right now you'd find it littered with handmade blankets....they are on my children's beds, on my bed, thrown over chairs, left on couches, filling my closets...and they range from no sew fleece blankets to pieced and hand quilted heirlooms. And I love every single one of them! I think it may have something to do with being raised by a mother ... View the Post
