Loyal Heights Blog Tour {And A Giveaway!}

Hello Friends!  

A couple years ago Jera of Quilting In The Rain contacted me about sewing with her latest fabric line to showcase it in a blog post.  I eagerly accepted.  And now, a couple years later I've had the privilege of helping to showcase two of her other fabric collections by sewing for her booth at Quilt Market.  Her latest collection, Loyal Heights, was debuted at Quilt Market in the Fall and I was so happy to have a little part in sewing for her booth.  I'm super excited to be in her blog tour for that project - as well as a couple other things I made!

I introduce you to Loyal Heights Fabric designed by Jera Brandvig and manufactured by Lecien Fabrics.  

Springy, Scrappy Log Cabin Quilt Block!

I've mentioned in a blog post last year (here) about a quilt block group that I'm in.  There are 11 of us in the group and each month one of us has a turn to choose the quilt block we would like everyone to make for us!  Last year I had the idea that I wanted to make a scrappy picnic quilt so I asked everyone to make a Courthouse Steps quilt block.  I need about 10 more quilt blocks to make the size quilt I want, so this year I'm adding to that pile of blocks!  I've requested a scrappy Log Cabin this time as they will go fantastic together!  

ANNOUNCING! {Mini Quilt Class}

There's something I've been yearning do for some time now.  It's something that I feel there is a need for in the online sewing community and something that really speaks to me as a Gram and as a Maker.   I want to offer an online beginner quilting class especially geared to children and beginner adults.

My Favorite Salt Soak!

A little over a year ago when I started fitness classes, I really enjoyed coming home and soaking in a tub of hot water to relax the muscles and help me sleep!  Sometimes I would throw in some Epsom Salt if I was really sore but never knew for sure if it really helped.
