Oh, Fransson!

Iron Cozy

I mentioned the other day that my friends had been pushing me to finish the pattern for the Sewing Circle Tote. This is another pattern that I've been asked to publish, and I'm happy to say that both the Iron Cozy and the Sewing Circle Tote patterns will be available on Monday, April 1.

Sewing Circle Tote

After several years of juggling my sewing supplies in multiple, not-quite-right bags to and from sewing circle, I finally decided to make a single bag specifically for that purpose. 

Text Pillows

I finished a couple of samples this morning and I like them so much that I had a hard time leaving them at Modern Domestic!

I'll be teaching a text quilts workshop there this Spring that will cover two methods of adding letters to your quilt projects. I'll post again when I have exact dates for my upcoming classes but, in the meantime, I just couldn't wait to share photos of these pillows!  You can read about the classes here.

PMQG Holiday Swap

Modern Patchwork: Finished Neighborhood Pillow

This is part of a year-long series of posts about the quilts from Modern Patchwork. I'm highlighting a different quilt each month, and will be remaking each of the book quilts in some way. 

This month, the featured quilt from Modern Patchwork is Neighborhood, which appears on Pages 34 - 41. I made a pillow version using a single block, and you can find my post about making the block here.

How to Make Quilted Patchwork Panels for a Structured Bag

I've gotten a lot of questions about how I made the panels for my quilted Weekender Bag and, since I'm in the process of making a second one, I was able to take some photos and write up a little tutorial.

Hexie Pillow

I finished my hexagon project!

Quilted Weekender Bag

I've had Amy Butler's Weekender Bag pattern for months, but I've been so busy that I haven't had a chance to make one. . . until now!
