I am back!

Been extremely busy as of late. I have been tied to my machine trying to get client quilts finished. Only have 6 more to go.

Did manage to get my garden in this weekend. We made it quite a bit larger than last year and it still isn't big enough. I am going to have my work cut out for me this fall.

Not much going on in my shops. I did get a tablerunner done and listed yesterday.
It is made with Moda charm squares called Berry Delicious.

Letter to the Sales Fairy

Dearest Salesfairy,
Where art thou? We needth fairy dust sprinkled amongst us.
Our coffers are bare so we needth you to share whatever dust
you can spare. We will be forever grateful.
An Etsy Quilter
Listed a new lap quilt on ArtFire this weekend. I finally was able to have both shops with different quilts. I didn't like having the same quilt listed on both. Worry about selling on both sites at the same time. Not that I am having fabulous sales on ArtFire. I think the potential is there just have to be patient. Thinking by Christmas it should pick up.


This is another Amy Butler quilt out of the Daisy Chain fabrics. This one is in the Forest colorway.

Latest Listing

Managed to finish the king size Amy Butler quilt last night and did the shams this morning.
Now to decide what to work on next. Received my fabric order in the mail today and I think that will be the next project. Different colors than I usually use. Black, white and red.

Wonderful Wednesday

Amy Butler curated a collection of Etsy favorites and included one of mine!

I am so shocked and honored to have been chosen.

This is the quilt that she chose to go with her garden theme.

Finished a couple of my quilts this weekend. Listed this one yesterday. I really like it. Was planning on making more blocks and using it for my bed but couldn't wait to see what it was going to look like. Have more blocks left so I have a start on mine.



Finished binding another one last night so will list that one on ArtFire today after it gets light enough so I can take the photos. Still working on the king size Amy Butler quilt. Would like to have that done and listed by the weekend. Will probably be more like early next week though.

I just finished piecing and quilting this quilt for a friend. It started out as a kit for a lap quilt but I enlarged it to be a queen size. The center is a panel with border stripes above and below. Simple yet beautiful. I quilted it with the Lush Leaves panto.

Listed 2 new quilts today.

Garden Martini was listed in my ArtFire studio.


In Etsy I listed Pastel Charms.
This is one that was in my stock pile of tops.
Someday I may get them all quilted.

Finally had time to add a few things to my shops. I have decided I need to work in my own things between customer quilts or I won't get anything of my own done.
This Fig & Plum tablerunner was added to my ArtFire shop.


This lap quilt was added to my Etsy Shop.


This quilt has found a new home in Australia. I just love sending this to far away places.

TGIF!!

This is the latest quilt I finished. It was in the pile of completed quilt tops that need to be quilted. I have been trying to do one a week to try and get some of them finished.



Working on a full size quilt this week. Hope to have it finished and listed in my Etsy shop soon.

I am using Amy Butlers Midwest Modern 2 fabrics. Need to get to the quilt shop to buy the backing fabric today.
