Today I’m working on a quilt that was designed by my good friend Heidi. As a talented member of the Man Sewing family, she is always coming up with cool project ideas.

the table is covered with colorful hexagons on blue fabric, and there are two windows in the background

It's more like a Cottage Garden.... Hello fellow quilters!! How are things with you? I hope this post finds you well. I've had a whirlwind month since I last wrote.... I attended International Quilt Market in Minneapolis (over the top exciting - more on it later)... Do you LOVE my Redbird Wool Applique Shirt? Took two days of training from the most awesome professional long arm quilter, Karen McTavish, (my quilting life will never be the same) - (more later here too!!) And, with my sisters…

Hi friends, Today I am excited to share a bit of work that has been keeping me busy the past couple of months for this past Quilt Market - Hexie Pillows! United Notions - Moda Fabrics is now carrying my Modern Handcraft pattern line and to celebrate I created some of my Hexie Pillows using some of the new lines that will be available soon! Moda is well known for their fabrics and especially pre-cuts. The mini charm packs were my inspiration for the Hexie Pillow because of the number of 2.5

Hi friends, Today I am sharing some photos of the Kona hexie quilt I made last month as my entry into the Quiltcon Quilt Show for next year. I have shared many progress pictures on Instagram and a few over here on the blog so I am so excited to share the final quilt with you all! The method I use for the application and the quilting can be found in my Hexie Pillow pattern. I would say this is more of an art quilt due to the delicate nature of the hexagons, but would look lovely draped at the…

a wall with many different colored squares on it

Hi friends, I am tempted to call this Geometric Rainbow 2.0 since it is so similar to my last big hexie project, but the jury is still out on that one. What I do know is that I fell in love with this fabric before I even cut it - and it was in fact painful to cut (I was so worried I was going to get the ombré effect out of order!) Vanessa Christenson of V and Co. was so sweet to send me the full ombré collection for Moda and this is exactly what I wanted to do with it, make a large scale…

an old quilt is laying on the ground

I finally finished sewing the hexie flier panel for a tiny baby quilt and added a border. Now it’s ready to be basted and quilted. I generous sized fat quarter is all it takes for the backing so I’m happily working my way through my stash for them. 😊#quiltersofinstagram #babyquilt #handmadewithlove #patchwork #darlenezimmerman #robertkaufmanfabrics #epp #englishpaperpiecing #hexielove #grandmothersflowergarden #handpiecing #aurifilthread
