Moda Candy Cabins

I love American Jane! Everything Sandy Klop (the clever quilter behind the American Jane fabrics and patterns) designs makes my heart go pitter patter. I also love tiny piecing! On my first-ever quilt retreat several years ago, a friend of mine was working on tiny paper pieced log cabins that she...

QAL - Cowboy Boot Block

Yee Haw! I’ve been having such fun celebrating MBS’ 7th birthday, have you? When I thought about how to commemorate this site’s 7th year, I thought about how fun and welcoming this site is for quilters and what a BIG Texas heart Moda has for fabric and quilters. I also thought about the contact I’...

It's a Frivolous Friday!

Geysers and geezers...

Old Faithful. I'll get to that in a moment. Did you have a good weekend? I spent it with Bern Ina, a lovely older Swiss gentleman with impeccable manners. He helped me finish my Go Four It quilt - picture coming soon - and the Snapshots Block No. 1. For those who asked about the pattern for the...
