Inspired By.. Quilting!

in Inspiration on 10/03/14

Welcome back to me! I’ve been away for a little bit… I’d like to say it was a much needed vacation and I’ve been at the beach laying in a hammock. Truthfully, I’ve had an insane cold that wouldn’t go away.  It got the best of me and my blog. I am so happy to be back.

This week is all about quilts! I’m sharing my inspiration today. I’ve taken on making a baby blanket for my best friend. I’m a month behind, but I’m following along with the Modern Bee book and making the “Playing Cards”  quilt from the February block.

This January I was part of a sew along that Lindsay Conner hosted. Lindsay wrote the book Modern Bee – 13 Quilts To Make With Friends. I was lucky to be apart of the sew along. I am now inspired to take on the 13 blocks in the book and attempt to quilt each month.

I have been sewing for more than 15 years, but quilting for under 5. I find sewing and pattern drafting really easy. However, quilting gets the best of me and my brain.  I feel like I am always mixing stuff up! So when I was offered to test a product called Alphabitties, I jumped at the chance! Alphabitties are specialty marking tools – small plastic squares to label fabric after cutting.

On Wednesday, I will be showing more about this product and how helpful these little squares are.

Until Wednesday.. Happy sewing.

      I saw your post on instagram and when tried to get into it, it was already full.. Lindsay said she was surprised at how fast it filled up. Agh! I look forward to seeing everything you all make. I’m on the mend. Can’t believe how many times I’ve been sick since Jan 1st!

My 5 yr old modeling the latest print from Sunday’s block printing zoom workshop. It’s fun to try to draw, carve and print all the while teaching and sharing over zoom. The prints made during these workshops aren’t perfect, but they sure are fun and memorable to create. Thank you to the small group of participants in attendance this Sunday, teaching these workshops has been good for my soul.

My 5yr old loves to snoop and to go through my stuff. He especially loves my block printing supples, recently found my stash of stamps and lined them up.  When I saw my handiwork from over the years, I thought it would make a fun picture.

Day 18 for #marchmeetthemaker2021 was “color”. Day 18 for #marchmeetthemaker2021 was “color”. I often look at people’s Instagram accounts where the colors are soft, muted and soothing. I say to myself ..Oooh. I want my Instagram feed to look like that. But the reality is, I love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ color.

Day 16 prompt for #marchmeetthemaker2021 is “Fro Day 16 prompt for #marchmeetthemaker2021 is “From The Archives”.. I first posted this picture 2 years ago. ❤️ the red and the simplicity of the print. If you have attended one of my zoom block printing workshops, you may recognize the shapes? Super simple, yet mixed together they make such a fun modern print.
