I think this is the first quilt that I photographed right after it came out of the dryer.I am glad that I decided to finish it – I really like how it came out! And my kids already wanted to cuddle up with it. Nice. I quilted this one pretty densely, free motion, your basic … More Tolva quilt – finished!!!
Do you remember this quilt I finished recently? I just learned from a commenter to my post that the striped block is called the Bright Hopes block. Well, if I had know that, it would have been much easier. I saw a vintage Vera shawl with this design, and then tried to figure out how … More dash-dot quilt block tutorial
Sometimes I forget to tell you here when I finish my project over at flekka-challenge. Since the last one, I made two: Editt top and Marina top. Go on over to flekka challenge for more pictures and step-by-step instructions.

It just sort of happened one day when I was trying (unsuccessfully) to sort my thrifted sheet stash. These particular … More ree finished
