Mini-Christmas Quilted Tree Skirt Tutorial

Tutorial

10 Dec

Hey there! Check out the Tutorial Reboot!  Back to the original post: — Is your mini-tree naked? Are its feet cold? Well add some modesty to your tree and wrap it up in a wee quilted tree skirt. This is a fairly easy and quick project. It took me 2-3 hours to complete. I like getting things done, don’t you?…

Obsession Confession

The only good laudry involves recently purchased fabric. Eeeee, the anticipation of it being clean and dried so you can iron it and do something with it. I can hardly stand the wait!

A sweeter payoff

I wanted to snap a picture of Amalie sleeping with her quilt. Awwww   Much better.

Progress: Orange hexagon

Uncategorized

20 Nov

I love putting this quilt together. I don’t like so much assembling each hexagon. Here is my progress so far. I have to baste the rest of my hexagons. I also must say that due to my haste in wanted to avoid the hard part, I had to start over several times. 🙂 *Sigh* I just want to sew!

Getting ready for Christmas

19 Nov

It’s hard for me (at least) to find women my age who like to quilt. So I offered to teach a class for my mom’s group. I was really excited about the prospect, but kinda nervous about the turnout. It turns out I didn’t need to be worried! There are a total of 10 girls working in our little quilting…

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. 💕

I’m not even exaggerating when I say that I probab I’m not even exaggerating when I say that I probably would have saved hundreds of hours if I knew the magic of freezer paper piecing when I first started quilting. 😅

There was a time when I almost gave up quilting altogether because I HATED paper piecing so much, and it took me so long. 

Having to sew through your foundations, spend countless hours ripping paper from the seams, having sore fingers, and not even wanting to do it anymore... That’s where I was with the whole paper piecing thing. Ready to just throw in the towel. 

And then a friend introduced me to Freezer Paper Piecing, and it changed my life forever. I have never looked back, and now I LOVE paper piecing. 🙌

Instead of tearing paper out of every seam, I could just peel it off… and use it again... and again... and again! 

It was like magic. And it still feels like magic every time I do it! 🪄

Comment “FREEZER” if you want to take my free class and experience the magic yourself. 💕
