“Modern” isn’t a strict definition or set of rules “Modern” isn’t a strict definition or set of rules to me... 👇

I started really thinking about what modern quilting meant to me when I was writing my book, Modern Triangle Quilts. 📖

Triangles became my playground. 
They gave me a way to create quilts that weren’t symmetrical, but still felt beautifully balanced.
A way to stretch, explore boundaries, and see design a little differently. ✨

For me, that’s what “modern” has always meant.
Not a strict definition.
Not a set of rules.

Just being playful and explorative in your quilting.
Trusting your eye and your own creativity.
And knowing you don’t have to follow every “should” to create something that feels right and beautiful. 🫶

These days, I find myself craving more symmetry again.
So here I am, in my little quilting corner, still working with triangles, just letting them evolve along with me.

I think that’s modern quilting too.

What’s your take on modern quilting? 💭

Come sew with me as I stitch the batch of our firs Come sew with me as I stitch the batch of our first block of the Dutch Summer! 🧵

There’s something extra special about that first block... when the fabrics are fresh, the triangles are crisp, and the whole quilt still feels full of possibility.

👉 One modern triangle block at a time.
👉 One month at a time.
👉 That’s how this quilt (and this journey) begins.

If you’ve been craving a slower, more joyful way to quilt this year… you’re right on time. Comment “DUTCH” to sew along with us! 💕

Triangles have a reputation in the quilting world. Triangles have a reputation in the quilting world. 😅

And for years, I watched quilters feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to even begin when it comes to triangles.

After a decade of teaching and helping over 5,000 quilters, I realized the problem wasn’t you.

It was the lack of a clear, joyful system that felt doable and repeatable.

So I created the Modern Triangle Kaleidoscope system, a way to make modern quilting feel approachable, satisfying, and actually fun.

This class isn’t about perfection.
It’s about gaining confidence, clarity, and enjoying every step of the process. ✨

I’d love to guide you through it. Comment “TRIANGLE” to join me! 💌

You know that special kind of joy that comes from You know that special kind of joy that comes from solving a good puzzle? 🧩

The quiet focus.
The way your brain lights up as pieces start to fit.
That ahhh moment when something suddenly makes sense.

Quilting scratches that exact same itch!

You start with simple pieces.
Triangles. Shapes. Color.
And at first, they feel small and separate...

But month by month, as you keep showing up and stitching just a little at a time, something magical happens. 🪄

Those individual pieces start to click together. Patterns emerge, movement appears, and one day you step back and realize…

“Oh. This is becoming something really beautiful!” 😍

That’s something that I truly love about quilting. It’s part puzzle, part creativity, and part cozy ritual. ✨

You don’t have to sit down for hours at a time or be “in the mood” to create. A few stitches here, a block there, that’s how quilts are made.

If you’re someone who loves:
✨ puzzles
✨ crafts with a little brainpower
✨ projects that unfold slowly and thoughtfully
✨ and that deeply satisfying ta-da moment at the end

Then 2026 might just be your year to fall in love with quilting.

I’ll be over here in my little corner, turning triangles into something magical and cheering you on every step of the way. 💕
