For this months edition of our "Quilt Block of the Month" we are going to show you how to use a PLAIN, SQUARE BLOCK to make a quilt. That's it...a block...a square piece of fabric...no cutting, ironing, or fancy moves...just a bunch of squares sewn together to create something fabulous. So, if you are ready to give quilting a try check out some of these ideas. I swear if you can sew a (semi) straight line you can sew up one of these quilt tops! If you haven't sewn quilt tops before ... View the Post
Easy Fabric Playhouse Tutorial
For ages I have been wanting to share instructions for an easy to make fabric playhouse and today is finally the day! When I was growing up we had a playhouse "tent" that we would put over a card table that would instantly turn that card table into a fortress, a mansion, a hideout, or a castle. I loved it. And I wanted to make one similar for my girls so for Christmas this year I put one together. I have seen quite a few of these that are amazing...with clear vinyl windows. flower ... View the Post
Rainbow Sparkle Playdough
We have had the sickies around here....bad colds and crazy coughs. But during the coughs I have still been trying to find inside activities to keep them busy.

I also love the black and white modern baby quilt because it is gender neutral and makes a darling play mat or a toddler bed quilt as well. And if you have never made a plus quilt---they are simple and fast and you can have ... View the Post
A Free Sawtooth Sunburst Quilt Top Pattern
Because this month we were talking about half square triangles I really wanted to put together a quilt top that featured how fun half square triangles can be. Soooo....I made this lap quilt using nothing but plain square blocks and a few half square triangles. And I really like how it turned out! I'm calling it a "Sawtooth Sunburst" quilt top. (Even thought technically it's not a sunburst design it reminds me of one so....) It was really easy to make and it you'd like to make one ... View the Post
T-Shirt to Skirt Tutorial
Today's post is a tutorial with a warning: The tutorial will walk you through how to turn a T-shirt into a skirt for your little one. And as for the warning it's a two parter....Part one: If you make one of these skirts you will end up making a dozen of them. They are addicting. Which leads me to Part two: Because they are addicting I have several more posts coming where I make and embellish skirts that are made from T-shirts. Alright. You've been warned. Now let's get down to the ... View the Post
