Easy Children’s Rag Blanket Tutorial

Easy Children's Rag Blanket Tutorial Today I want to show you a quick, easy and fun way to make a Rag Blanket that is a great couch quilt for kids! The great thing about making rag blankets...aside from their cuteness and how quickly they come together is this: As you sew the blanket top together you are sewing the blanket back together and it doesn't need to be quilted! You also don't need to bind these blankets. Sure you need to clip them but that can happen on the couch ... View the Post

Soft Caramel Popcorn Recipe

Soft Caramel Popcorn Recipe One of our family's favorite treats is to make caramel corn...but in our family it has to be the soft kind! Here is the recipe we use and it turns out perfectly every single time. We made a big batch of this last weekend and it was the perfect snack to gather everyone into the kitchen and make it and then play some fun games for family game night.

Slip Sliding Away Quilt Pattern

Slip Sliding Away Quilt Pattern Our newest quilt pattern is called the Slip Sliding Away Quilt Pattern. Paul Simon wrote the song “Slip Sliding Away” in 1977.  Forty three years later I sat listening to it while I sewed up quilts in my basement.  The song seems sad and melancholy...and there are many interpretations of the lyrics...however, as I’ve listened to it over and over again these past few months it has begun to feel more like a hymn of comfort.   Before the pandemic my ...

10 Shows to Binge Watch While Sewing

10 Shows to Binge Watch While Sewing Ok, so we know it's winter...and we are in a pandemic....so what are we all doing---sewing! And while people love to listen to music or podcasts while they sew, I am all about a good show to binge watch while sewing. I do need a tv show/series that is slow enough that I can keep track of what is going on while I quilt but also entertaining enough that it holds my attention. So, here is my list of 10, and please add your choices in the comments--we would ... View the Post
