2025 Habits: March Update
Oh, what a month! I am still struggling with Shingles. Sigh. Yes, still. I am on another round of antivirals, and I have good days and bad days. Needless to say, I am still not where I want to be, but I am better than I was, so that’s good. It has definitely taught me about patience and made me slow down some. Maybe that is what I needed to do anyway, right?
Quilting (and Sewing) for a Cause
If you’ve ever wondered, “Where can I donate my quilts, fabric scraps, or handmade items?”, you’re in the right place. Whether you love quilting, sewing clothing, or whipping up small projects, there are so many organizations that would love to receive your handmade goodness. From quilts for veterans to blankets for shelter pets, and even dresses for children around the world—there’s a perfect cause for every kind of maker.
2025 Habits: February Update
It has been a slow month as I am recovering from a pinched nerve in my shoulder. I did manage to accomplish some things, thank goodness! I took down my sewing room tree (so sad to see it go), we worked on a puzzle, hung out with my best girl Daisy, organized my fabric and even tried my hand at wool appliqué.
2025 Quilting Goals
At the close of each year, I take time to reflect on the highlights, challenges, and lessons learned. This process gives me clarity on where changes are needed, areas for growth, and what I should release or leave behind. While countless things could fit into these categories, here are the top habits I’m committed to cultivating in 2025!
2024 Habits: November Update
I cannot believe we are only one month away from the end of 2024. I also cannot believe how much making (almost) monthly videos and writing monthly blogs has helped me develop sewing habits as well as it has. Who knew? It goes to show you that having an accountability partner really does help. I want to thank you all for being my accountability partner in this endeavor!

Change Those Blades!
Aren’t rotary cutters the best? What did we ever do without them? We do, however, have to change the blades, and for many quilters (myself included for a very long time!), it is intimidating. The biggest concern is always this: What if we cut ourselves? After all, that blade is super sharp!
Stitch & Flip Quilting
If you have been following the quilting trends lately, we are seeing a resurgence of what is called Stitch & Flip Quilting. Although this isn’t a new technique by any means, it sure is a fun one! Here is some information about it:
