This is the first time I’ve used a log cabin pattern. I saw this particular pattern in an issue of QuiltMaker from my mom’s stash. It was made with holiday colors but I wanted something for every day. I love how easy this was and how it turned out. I downsized it from 70in x 85in to 48in x 58in

I’m calling it Wrapped Up because I think it looks like a prettily wrapped present 🎁

Me explaining why I’m a booster of hand-quilting even though I do not myself make quilts: “Well, my mom and sister are quilters, and my late grandma on Mom’s side, and I was in a youth quilt guild growing up.

“But I mean, I know HOW to quilt. I can contribute if there’s a quilt in a large frame for group quilting. There are a few stitches of mine in plenty of my family’s quilts….

“I’m a social quilter!”

"Thursday After Thunder" teableau for 03/27/25

There was a wild storm last night- momentous lightning, ground-shaking thunder, hard rain- that caught houses on fire & blew out windows. Yet today, it's as if nothing at all occurred, just sedate calm all around. Storms be that way.

I have a really awesome deal going right now - the next person who orders a quilt from me gets this handmade quilted tote bag made by my very talented mom; she will include this fine piece when she sends the quilt you ordered from her home in New Jersey.
