Last week was one of those do random things in between everything else I had to do weeks. I talk about bibs, blouses, binding, something fun for my hair, and Ikea fabric!
Simply The Best Sewing Book is where the patternless pattern for my blouse is from (my copy is from 1988, but there are quite a few versions out there)
Y’all, I had the hardest time deciding on a title for today’s video! I worked on several VERY different projects and have 3 fun finishes to share. The baby quilt is done, I did a complete rework of a thrift flip, and I share a fun project made (mostly) with my embroidery machine!
Happy Tuesday, friends! This week, I chat about quilting the fox baby quilt as well as pulling out a UFO from a couple of years ago to finish up as a gift.
Stay for some fandom quilting story telling as well as ancient t-shirt mending!
I have a just a little bit of show & tell today with an extra bit of chat. The baby quilt top is pieced, and I made two more bibs. Stay to the end of for a very thirsty hummingbird!
I spent most of last week visiting my bff, Jewells (@nmjewells on YouTube), in Albuquerque, NM! I joined her for Paper Piecing Club at Hip Stitch, we stitched (both hand & machine), did loads of thrifting, chatted endlessly, and just generally had some BFF soul restoration time!
I links below. If you’re curious about a specific fabric shown here, just let me know and I’ll share if I can.

Look for ReCreate IN STORE only at Hip Stitch for amazing deals on previously owned fabrics and craft supplies.
This week finds me with a new batch of baby stuff, this time burp clothes, wash cloths, and bibs! I do have some other fun things planned once I’ve worked my way through the more utility based baby stuff!
I’m on my way out of town tomorrow, but will be back home with a new TTMT next week.
Hello, friends! My HST top is now quilted! I left it on my Gracie King frame (currently set up for Queen size) to show you my quilting setup. I also chat about fabric at my local Michael’s and tease an upcoming project.
I used Pellon 100% cotton batting in my quilt purchased at Michael’s.
The video looks long, but I only talk until 7:34:21. The rest of the video shows one pass of quilting with the Q’Nique. My machine is not computerized and I love Free Motion Quilting (FMQ) so that’s what you get to see! It’s been a while since I quilted and I forgot to use my lint roller first which I am sure you’ll notice by my left hand regularly guest starring to pick lint off the top.
