Texas Freckles
I've been neglecting the blog this week. It's been one of those crazy busy weeks that leaves you moaning desperately for some downtime. I haven't been home much this week and when I have, I've been working. My freelance work comes in spurts and when I get a big project(s), it usually takes a while to get it all wrapped up and out the door. That said, I've still got a lot of work to do and this upcoming weekend is packed with my daughter's 10th birthday festivities. Fortunately, hexagons are…

My New Favourite Quilting Tool
This little wooden wheelie thing has turned out to be the handiest dandiest thing to have right by my sewing machine. I've been preparing myself to sew curves sometime soon and I had heard good things about the "curve master foot" so I ordered one. I know I could have borrowed Carly's (thanks, Carly) and given it a whirl but I decided to commit. In the video I watched about how to use the foot, they recommended flattening the curved seams with this wooden wheel instead of an iron because the…

Quilt Room Project
Hi Everyone, Did you all have a marvelous National/International Quilting Day? I spent it at an antique show and a Civil War battlefield. I didn't take so much as one stitch!

If you have been following me for a while, you may remember my post about my quilt room after we got moved in and settled. If you haven't…
