My magazine debut {Love Patchwork & Quilting}

Uncategorized

19 Aug

While I’m mostly a book gal, there are a few magazines I love. One of which is Love Patchwork & Quilting. I think it’s the fun mix of home decor, lifestyle and of course patchwork and quilting.

Wildflower Pillow

I am so honored to let y’all know that my Wildflower pillow is featured in Issue 11. Yah!

Oh, and lookie there, that's my project in a magazine. Weeeee!  @lovequiltingmag

I had to recreate some of my pillow for step out shots, so I had a few extra blocks. Needless to say, these singular Wildflower blocks make up the cutest mini mini quilts. If you just want a taste of English Paper Piecing. Sometimes, just a little of something can go a long way! (Trying to tell myself about that little taste of chocolate right now. A little is good right?!)

Wildflower blocks!

If you are interested in making a wildflower block or two or nine, the templates are available over at Love Patchwork and Quilting.

Wildflower blocks!

Thanks for reading!

    this is quite honestly one of my favourite projects in this magazine so far 🙂 Sadly though I cannot seem to save the templates (it says I have but then it is nowhere on my computer) and when I print directly from the templates page it is so big that I only get part of the diamond. Are you able to send me the templates please?

This time of year in the sewing room is always so This time of year in the sewing room is always so lovely. 

We FINALLY get to have the windows open, the world outside is getting colorful again, and the extra daylight is a big bonus. 

This is my recipe for a PERFECT April sewing day...

✨ Self care: plan meals/snacks for eating right & getting your exercise (booooooo! I know, I know.) Maybe a fun wee treat tho!?

✨ Entertainment: if it’s just you, get your show/ sporting event/ audible, etc. Or if you’re with your quilty buds, you know what to do! Sew, gab, laugh!

✨ Something you’re excited to sew: latest bingeable project at the ready!? Latest fabric stack that arrived in the post? Or...finally get that WIP d.u.n!

✨ Essential responsibilities taken care of: feed the dog, respond to that time-sensitive email, dinner for the fam? Take care of what you must get done so you can check out more completely.

Finally, set a timer for your hard stop time.

I set my alarm for when I need to pick up my kiddos from school. That way, I can get carried away by my creativity and indulge in “me” time!

Shut the laptop, check out, it’s sew time! 🧵 Everything else on your to-do list can wait. It is time for you!

What are you working on for a perfect April sewing day? ⬇️

If my WIP pile was getting out of control… here’s If my WIP pile was getting out of control… here’s exactly what I’d do: ⬇️

👉 Find a community of quilters to connect with, learn from, and grow with. People who cheer you on, celebrate your blocks, and make you want to keep going!!! 

👉 Make it easier on yourself with freezer paper piecing. This technique completely changed my life. I wanted to give up on quilting altogether at one point before I found freezer paper piecing. 

It’s not that you don’t finish quilts…

It’s that you don’t have the right support or the right process yet. 🧵✨ Comment ‘FREE’ to take my free class, learn the freezer paper piecing technique, and get invited to join an amazing community. 💕

One thing that will NEVER get old with freezer paper piecing... ⬇️

The number of blocks I can sew from just ONE foundation! 🙌

It always amazes me, and it’s one of my favorite things about the technique. 

I save so much time not having to make a new foundation for every single block, and that’s not to mention the time saved from not having to rip the paper bits of those foundations out of the seams. ✨

I’m hosting a free class where I teach you this technique, and give you a modern triangle block pattern to start sewing!

Spring is in the AIR! (and in the sewing room!) 🌸 Spring is in the AIR! (and in the sewing room!) 🌸 🪡

There’s so much pressure on us in the quilting wor There’s so much pressure on us in the quilting world to finish what we started. 👇

But if you’re stuck staring at a stack of unfinished blocks, and it’s keeping you out of the sewing room because it’s the last thing you want to sew right now, this is the advice that I would give you. 

It’s okay to put a project down for a while. 🫶

I’ve had projects and quilts that sat folded up for weeks… months… even longer. Projects I avoided because I got stuck, or lost momentum, or honestly just wasn’t in the mood to sew that anymore. AND IT’S OKAY! 🙌

Every single time I came back to them after putting them down for a while, I felt that spark for sewing again. I felt the inspiration that I started the project with, and I started ENJOYING it again. ✨

So if you have something that you’re avoiding sewing, let this be your permission slip to just put it down and know that you’ll come back to it when the time is right. 

Put your favorite emoji in the comments if you needed to hear this. 💕
