Back from Market.
These last few weeks have been nuts, but I'm back from Quilt Market and trying to catch up on all that I missed while away. Over the next few days and weeks, I'll share pics from my trip and ...

Thank you so much to everyone who placed bids on my charity auction. You are all awesome and very generous! I'll be sending you each a personal thank you for getting involved. Michelle, you ...
charity auction for blocks, botanics, and other good stuff.
A couple of weeks ago, I was digging around for some stuff in this huge pile of quilts. It's sometimes a surprise to see what's in there. One of the things was this stack of blocks from my Local quilt ...
Happy Labor Day.
I'm not taking much time off today, but I did start the day off by finishing up this lil guy for fun. And I'm very lucky that I can usually find "work" to do that is sewing related. Today I will try ...
recently in visuals.
Work/Life is definitely starting to ramp up with Fall releases and deadlines right around the corner. Here's a bit of what I've been up to. Playing with lots of color... And then also not a lot of ...
taking in the scenery.
Where I live in Florida is pretty much at the center of the peninsular part of the state. Florida can be interesting place in that each part can be quite a bit different from the next. Over the last ...
back at it.
CAMP was awesome. 4 days in the High Sierra Mountains with some awesome new friends plus totally unplugging did this body good. I'm totally stoked to be doing what I do and am ready to jump ...
back from Portland.
I had a GREAT trip, and I'm really excited to have launched loads of new stuff. It's always fun seeing (and making) friends in the industry, scoping out what everyone has been working on, and ...

hi, april.
Quilt Market is looming, as it tends to do. That's fine. I mean there are still (quite a few) logistical things that need to be worked out, and my new stuff is not quite ready to see the light of day. ...
It’s on.
And you better believe I'm excited. Right now, I'm waiting to board my flight to Austin and QuiltCon is almost at my finger tips. While I'm waiting for that. Let's kick this adventure off with a ...
local shop love. (+ a giveaway)
Supporting local and independent business is massively important to me, not only because I work as an independent designer myself, but also because it's what I grew up with. (I love ...
hello new year!
I'm feeling quite refreshed after taking a break. I had my computer turned off for at least a solid week, which is nothing short of a miracle. I did sneak a moment here and there on my ipad, but ...
entering break mode.
It has really been an awesome year, and I continue to be so grateful. And with that, I'm officially entering break mode until the new year. I think it's just the right time to slow down and get to ...
hiya.
My mind is just a little mushy this week as I continue getting ready for my trip to Houston for Quilt Market next week. I'm cranking away, but wanted to quickly share a pic. As I was looking ...
late summer showers.
The early evening showers have been quite regular this week, and I love the drama right before it all goes down. The colors and light get kind of intense. I snapped this yesterday ...
hello quilts.
They're baaack... ...all six of them have been traveling around and apparently having a great time this summer on tour. I'm totally honored to have had so many wonderful shops hosting them all over ...
making a clean spot.
In starting a business (and also in life) there's a certain amount of necessary and miscellaneous stuff that starts to accumulate - in piles in my case. Quilting goods pose a similar threat, but my ...

July means studio tours all month long over at the Pink Chalk blog, and I am LOVING seeing other people's spaces! It's exciting for me to be included in the line-up, and today is my day to share. ...
