Beginning Cutie Quilt Featuring Sevilla Fabrics

I'm so pleased that this quilt is quilted, bound, filmed, and ready to be shipped off to a family member.  She thinks it's "Cute" and "Need[s] it."  There are few perks to being related to a quilter, but first dibs on quilts is one of them.

This Beginning Cute Quilt features Sevilla fabrics from Benartex and Dublin backgrounds from Northcott.

I found a new place to hang quilts to photograph because Hurricane Isaias destroyed my previous quilt space (aka "the back deck").  This is pretty, too, right?  And when we rebuild the deck, I will make sure it's photo worthy!

Kits for this quilt are in my shop as well as Sevilla Cutie Packs.

I quilted the hour glass blocks with curves using rulers on my home sewing machine.

Learn how to do this in my video:


In the video, I talked about:

Ruler Feet

Handi Quilter Slice Ruler

Handi Grip

Quilter's 1/4" Tape

Grip Gloves

This pumpkin seed design can be featured in un-pieced blocks, too!

Have you ever used rulers on your home sewing machine before?  Give it a try!

    This is cute and I would declare that I really needed it too... if we were related. ;) I found you on FB and everything seems "normal" as can be for the FB. Care to share why they went loco on you?
    Also, I can place your new address into my Wordpress follow application to follow you, but would rather follow you via email. Will you be adding a follow widget soon?

    Love your work and your cheery disposition no matter what happens in your life!

    Thx Deb! You’re the best! I bought a Ruler foot several months ago. Think I’ll try it today!

Electric Blue A La Moda

My  A La Mode Cutie Pattern  looks great in every color combination I've tried, and I've tried MANY! Kits for this quilt  are on sale so you can make one (or a dozen), too! I love black and white fabrics, and I also love experimenting to see how they play off different background colors. Hot aqua, anyone? I decided to go with my favorite ribbon candy quilting on this quilt, because I quilted this when I needed some extra fun in my life (meaning, any time in 2020).  I teach how to stitch Ribbon Candy  in my  First Steps to Free-Motion Quilting online class , both free-motion, and using a stencil. This quilt is awaiting its forever home.  I'm sure it will be loved wherever it eventually lives.

 Scott from 4th and Main Designs tempted me beyond my ability to resist and I just had to make his Tuscan Vintage quilt . It was a perfect "I don't feel well" remedy and I enjoyed piecing and quilting it. I filmed as I quilted this quilt, so watch and see the loveliness unfold! If you want to support two designers at once, use Scott's link to buy my Quilting Essentials: First Steps to Free-Motion Quilting class!

A La Mode for Baby

My  A La Mode Cutie Pattern  is my go-to giveaway quilt. Kits for this quilt  are on sale so you can make one (or a dozen), too! One of my "quilt crushes" is on Lori Holt of Bee in My Bonnet.  I have most of her books (and fabrics, and templates, and notions, and...).  So when I found this fabric, I needed to have it ALL! I decided to go with my favorite ribbon candy quilting on this quilt.  I teach how to stitch Ribbon Candy  in my  First Steps to Free-Motion Quilting online class , both free-motion, and using a stencil. This quilt has already been gifted to a new baby.   I hope it will be spit up on, dragged, abused, and loved for years to come. I only quilted in the background and left the beautiful fabrics to SHINE!
