Calling all JELLY ROLL lovers out there! Working with a single jelly roll to create this LONE STAR variation was honestly so much more fun than I ever imagined. I think it is the perfect blend of strip pieced blocks and with the addition of the solid star points, the blocks go together so much easier & faster than expected. You have so many less seams to match than in a traditional Lone Star and it makes all the difference! Pattern has no “y” seams and uses my signature diamond strip method…i think you might love…
I have to tell you that it is definitely a dream of mine to live in the Cotswolds, an area of southwest England, one day. I have had the amazing chance to visit there many times with my parents and kids and on the way to visit family and each time it just gets better.

Imagine sheep grazing on rolling green hills, dotted with clumps of clover. Believe it or not, I walked on a Cotswolds public path just like this one & SHEEP & CLOVER was born in my head on that very walk! I do believe a have a few photos of part of my walk, so scroll through to see them!! Pattern is made with my favorite SEW & FLIP method, so no specialty rulers or techniques involved. Each sweet little block feels like its own little quilt! And as you can see, actually making just one of the sheep and turning…
Welcome back to another post talking a bit about my newest upcoming collection, LARKSPUR & LINEN. This time I am focusing on the linen side of things and I am so excited to share more about these lovelies with you. Designing and working with quilting cottons is, of course, my first love. However, over the years, I have worked with lots of different substrates [that is a fancy industry word for the type of “base” fabric you are working with] including various wovens, flannels, corduroys, seersuckers, snuggle/minky and others. Somehow, I have never created a line of…
