I’ve been trying to use up some fabrics in my stash (to make room for more, obviously), so I made a quick and easy baby quilt in a fun gingham design. This simple quilt is so easy to make and only requires three fabrics!

I recently got a bug in my bonnet telling me that I could really use a design wall for my scrappy quilt projects that I love to sort of let come together as I go. In past homes, with large sewing rooms, I just did this kind of thing on the floor, but in my current very small sewing room, I don’t have that kind of space on the floor, but I DO have a perfect empty wall!

A few years ago, I created a tutorial for how to sew an oversized hot pad and it’s one of my most popular videos to date — mostly because of my fuss free method of quilt binding!
That tutorial teaches the quilt binding method that I’ve always used, so I really didn’t know how many people were struggling with other, more fussy methods of binding their quilts. After receiving sooooo many comments about this genius of this method, I knew I had to share a separate tutorial just for my brilliant binding method!

I recently highlighted some sewing tools I’m a huge fan of, one of them being a walking foot attachment for my sewing machine. Since this is such an essential tool for me, I was so surprised at how many comments I received from people who either had one and had no idea what it was for up until that point, or people who had never even heard of one!

I’m a huge fan of freestyle quilting! I love to improvise and pull out scraps and make a big mess and just sort of wing it. Give me a list of 100 shapes to cut before I can even start my quilt and I’m out, haha. But give me freedom to make something up as I go along, and call it wonky? I’m so in!

The first quilt I ever made was an improv quilt! It was a scrappy, wonky house quilt backed with flannel and up until my toddler son got into some paint and painted the basement family room with it, including said quilt, it was one of the coziest too.
I’m here to chat about improv quilting today; what it is, how to get started, and project ideas!

I’ve made a couple of fun pineapple block mini quilts and thought I’d share those today, along with a little round up of great pineapple quilt patterns! Traditionally, a “pineapple quilt block” refers to a particular quilt block style that’s a variation of a courthouse steps block, and tends to give off spikey pineapple vibes. But this list of pineapple quilt patterns will be patterns for actual pineapple blocks, in the literal fruit sense!
