Meet Starburst: I designed Starburst in January of 2013. This was my original Starburst “logo” showing three different ways that you can use the block. (And add that the center one can be a solid star without the square in the very middle.) Can you tell that I like options in my designing?! 😉 I’ve […]

Giant Granny Square
Meet Giant Granny Square: I first made a Giant Granny Square quilt when my oldest was a baby. It was when granny square quilt blocks were all the rage! But I was too lazy to make a lot of blocks for a baby quilt, so I made one that was extra big. lol. I added […]
Sweet Dreams
Meet Sweet Dreams: In a dream I had in November 2014, I saw a quilt block that I really liked. I remember studying the design in my dream so I could remember it when I woke up. Shortly after that I drew up the pattern in Illustrator and forgot about it. One day, while trying […]
Poinsettia
Meet Poinsettia: Poinsettia is my newest pattern, and first pattern I designed in ~2 years! In 2020 I took a bit of a break from quilting and designing, and I wasn’t sure if I’d be back… I didn’t know what the future would be. But a turn of events, and lots of time to heal […]

Trees at Night
Meet Trees at Night: Trees at Night was a fun pattern to create. I had been contacted in December of 2012 by ADORNit to make something with a new fabric line they were releasing. I’m always up for a challenge, so rather than using it in something that already existed, I of course had to […]
