Black and White Modern Baby Quilt

This tutorial was originally posted on Riley Blake Designs last month, but it really is one of my favorite things as of late!  I have actually made two more with the same colors and designs in  lap sizes (just add two more rows!) and they are gifted to their homes already. I also love the black and white modern baby quilt because it is gender neutral and makes a darling play mat or a toddler bed quilt as well.  And if you have never made a plus quilt---they are simple and fast and you can have ...

What’s Going On Around Here?!?

And the result?  I am telling you it was WAYYYYY better.  Like I am drooling typing out this post better.  It was so moist and chocolately and for breakfast the next morning was even better than the night before.  (That's my ...

The Art of Homemaking: On Guard

Recently my kids have been on a Robin Hood watching binge...so the movie is playing all the time in the background of whatever we are doing...and the other day I over heard something I'd never paid attention to before.  It was the phrase, "On Guard". Before Robin Hood attacks his opponent he always puts them on alert by shouting "On Guard!"  And not only does Robin Hood afford that luxury to his opponents but the bad guys even follow suit.  "On Guard!" they shout before swinging their ...

be the good.

"Believe there is good in the world." Ghandi A couple of weeks ago liZ and I had the opportunity to attend ALT summit held in Salt Lake City where we were asked to host a roundtable discussion on one of our favorite things that we do on our blog, "Skirting the Issue." Here is the printable we used (right click to save it as a jpg...it's a 5x7) so you can print them out at home too. ... View the Post

Another Love Skirt (along with the how to)

  Every year I make Grace a "love skirt" to wear for Valentines Day.  Sometimes I post them...like HERE (The All You Need is Love Skirt) ,  HERE  (The Love Me Two Times Skirt) and HERE (The Love is In the Air Skirt) but sometimes I don't. However, this is one of the post it years!  For two reasons:  #1.  Because I really like this one and #2.  Because it's so easy to make.  Let me show you how! ... View the Post
