If you’re looking for information on how to machine appliqué EPP (or anything for that matter) to your quilt, you’re in the right place! Today I have a tutorial on how to machine appliqué some pretty little EPP hexagon flowers to a quilt block background. Hello and welcome to those participating in the Kingfisher Stitch-Along! …
A while back I bought myself a copy of Anna’s (Noodlehead blog) Compass Bag, purchased some sexy bag hardware and then….did nothing. It took Sarah Golden’s beautiful Maker Maker fabric collection for Andover to remind me of the pattern and put me back on track. Maker Maker is a linen/cotton blend, often referred to as home-dec …
Are you looking for a good way to store and organise your small quilting templates? How about a flex frame pouch? This pouch is made of both transparent vinyl and fabric. I chose vinyl because I wanted to be able to see at a glance which templates were in what pouch. I found my vinyl …
Hello all, here’s a recent scrap fabric project I finished! This was also my entry in the Umbrella Prints Trimmings Challenge. When I first heard about the contest I thought ‘what a great idea’! Anyone who’s followed this blog for a while will know that I love scrap fabric projects – especially on the micro …

We have a lot of puzzles and board games and other things that live in cardboard boxes around here. The problem is that after some hard playing the boxes tend to pop their corners and get all ratty. Not to mention it gets hard to find places to store all those bulky containers. I got …
The Olympics made me do it. The Olympics and Blandina. You see, Blandina gave me a beauty of a charm square pack she’d had in her stash for many years (she bought it when she was three ;). Laura Ashley, no less. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to make with it until I saw …
Here’s a small finish – a table runner from HSTs. Honestly, I’m not too sure about this one. I love the hand quilting details but I don’t think I’ve used the right colour for the binding. I was trying to avoid using orange and being too match-matchy, but now I think that Metro Living print …
Guess what I finally finished? My super colourful cathedral windows quilt! These cathedral windows came away to the snow with us this year (where I finished it). They came away with us to the snow last year. This bloody thing came away with me to my sister’s house when she used to live in the …
