Welcome to my blog. I created it to share my love of quilting.

Watch Out Cats!

You know how when you read peoples' quilting blogs they always show their cats trying out the quilts after they have been finished?

You all know I don't have a cat, just dogs?

Well, watch out cats because my dog Sara has decided it's her job to try out my quilts even when they aren't finished!
This is a quilt I have been working on using fabric, Square in a Square ruler and reference book I got at the Houston Quilt Festival. I am almost finished and I can say I swear by it already!

The International Quilt Festival-Houston

My friend, Robin and I flew to Houston and met another friend, Lucy, and her sister, Joann. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Houston which was an awesome place.

We enjoyed the quilts, and lots of vendors as well as shared ideas and dreams of sewing new quilts.
Our favorite purchases were Square in a Square Rulers and the accompanying "bibles". I have been watching the DVD and have been working on Option 1 blocks! Stay tuned for my final review and quilt reveal!

I really was impressed with the red and white quilts displayed. Here's a miniature I fell for!

These quilts were some of my many favorites!

Finishing Is a Good Thing!

I have been working to finish things up as I have this urge to start something new!
Here's a cute fall pillow I made with a Moda Candy pack and a recipe from the Moda Bake Shop!
I have finished a few small Christmas gifts, but you can't see those yet!
