Well I officially finished my items for the Sew Sew Modern swap! I have to say this could be by far one of the most fun projects I have done to date! I think I may be a tad bit addicted to dense machine quilting. I especially love quilting smaller things like this table runner and these placemats. First I...

I have been working on a lot of projects lately, but most of them I can't share about. Don't you hate that. The suspense is killing me that's for sure!

Well I am extremely embarrassed! A few months back I saw that a fellow quilter who I met in my Modern Quilters Facebook Group, was having a really awesome blog hop called Know Thy Machine. I immediately wanted to sign up, but somehow did not see all the emails about the schedule assignments and everything required for the hop. So...

I am guest blogging over at small + friendly today about my Patchwork Shorts I made for the fabulous sew along Shorts on a line!  CHECK IT OUT! Alyssa

As you may know I am primarily a quilter. I occasionally sew bags, or accessories, but very rarely sew clothing. This is in no way because, I dislike sewing clothing just that I don't have much experience with it. When Rachael from Imagine Gnats contacted me about her fantastic upcoming event "shorts on a line", I was ready to jump...
