I have been seeing Modern Maple Quilts everywhere (just google it--there are some pretty spectacular ones) but last week I was in the mood for a quick project. So, I dug out my scrap bin, pulled out some colors and decided to make a Modern Maple Fall Pillow. And I even did the math (not my strong-suit) to make it fit right ;) This Maple Fall pillow tutorial fits snuggly in an 18 by 18 inch pillow form (the pillow cover is actually 17.5 by 17.5 but I think it gives a great fit) and they were a ...

Easy Quilt Tutorial
When we did our quilt giveaway a month or so ago, I had several questions asked about how I put that quilt together. So, today I thought I would do a short easy quilt tutorial that you can make in an afternoon.

Quilted Zipper Pouch Tutorial
Zipper pouches are one of my absolute go-to's for a handmade gift. I think I love them most because they are simple (don't be afraid of the zipper part....they are easy!) and I can whip one up in an afternoon which is a quick success when it comes to sewing projects. I have created a short tutorial to show you how I make my easy quilted zipper pouches and I hope that you will try one.

Luckily I have a super supportive husband who let me catch up on some much needed sleep this weekend and I am feeling tons better. It's amazing what sleep can do for you (and your regular medications)! In other news, we ... View the Post
The Princess and the Pea Quilt Tutorial
And for all of you who know us, once we get a theme in our heads---we can't quite leave it alone. So we made a quilt for our own little princesses to dream of their own story. I love this quilt. It is simple....and made with scraps! What's not to love about that? I did take a few pictures of how I did it....so that you can make your own too. First I cut 2" strips of the leftover fat quarters from the Peggie people story. The fabric is Riley Blake's Willow line. Then ... View the Post
