The sixth and final pattern for the baby or child’s quilt is this sweet baby zebra with sunflower. To make the quilt, square up the blocks and then alternate plain blocks with the embroidered blocks. For the baby quilt using 9 1/2″ squares, arrange the blocks 4 rows of 3 blocks across. For the larger child’s quilt using 12 1/2″…
I think I’ve developed a bit of a thing for making these cute little thimble pips. They are quite a bit smaller than the clam shell accessories cases I showed you in this post. So far I’ve made three while working on the tutorial for how to make them and I’ve got the plastic forms cut out to make 5…
Since going gluten free, one of the things I miss the most is bread. Earlier this year, I discovered this muffin recipe that I’ve been using as a replacement for rolls and English muffins.

Pillow covers can be such quick, satisfying projects. The improv quilted pillows have certainly proven to be just that. After I trimmed and squared up the fronts, I made a simple envelope style back. I had only purchased one yard of the circle fabric so I didn’t have quite enough to make the entire back out of it, but I…
I’ve been working on a fun and easy project. A while ago I came across this fabric and knew immediately that I wanted to quilt around those circles and then make something out of it. I needed a couple of pillows to rest our backs against when we’re sitting in the bar stools using our computers. So I cut 19″…
