Working through some unfinished projects and finally finished my Christmas quilt! I adore this pattern, Cabin Nights, by Prairie Quilt Co. 💕 #pinkisachristmascolor #quiltsky

A new project for a friend. Color blocked courthouse steps inspired by the lovely Tara Faughnan. My last six months in her Block Studies Collective gave me such a new perspective on color and her teaching has influenced my creative confidence more than I could’ve imagined! ✨ #quiltsky

The Lone Starburst is my favorite block I’ve made in a quilting bee this year! We needed some extras for this month in our bee and I was thrilled to make another. 10/10 recommend it! #quiltsky #modernquilting #quilting #lonestarburstblock #quiltingbee #beeblock

My finished project bag, with a linen exterior and two improv patchwork studies for lining. It makes me happy every time I see that burst of color play on the inside! #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilting #sewing

Using improvised quilting panels as lining for a project bag. Business on the outside, party on the inside 💃🏼 #quiltsky #modernquilting #sewing #improvquilting

Time to baste and quilt this Nova Star! 🧵🪡 #quiltsky #modernquilting #quilting

I am distracted these days with the state of the world. Keeping my hands busy really helps. Working on a prompt from @tarafaughnan.bsky.social’s Block Studies Collective and encouraging myself to maintain a state of play and color and hope ❤️. #quiltsky #modernquilting #improvquilting

It’s so satisfying when EPP blocks start adding up! 12/20 blocks complete! 🙌🏻 #quiltsky #epp #englishpaperpiecing #modernquilting

Scrappy strawberry blocks forever! I love this one I made for a friend 🍓🫶🏻✨ Block tutorial by SewMaryHappy 🌈 #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilting

Vibrant quilting bee blocks for my friend in Canada! I love the Community Star pattern and think it’s such a great choice for a modern scrappy vibe! Happy Saturday, friends! ✨✨ #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilting

Heading into the weekend with my final double bear paw block! 🩷 #quiltsky #modernquilting #quilting

I love pattern testing and had the pleasure of trying out Kanako Fukatani’s Twirling Ends Pouch last month! I feel like I’m always looking for extra-special patterns to make as gifts and this one hit all of the marks for me! It’s a functional, beautiful work of art for daily life ❤️ #quiltsky #sewing

Another double bear paw addition to my quilt! #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilting #doublebearpawblock

Working ahead on some quilting bee blocks this week ✨. This Lone Starburst FPP block is my new favorite! 😍 #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilter

Excited to be diving back into my current EPP quilt today! I love watching these blocks come together! #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilting #englishpaperpiecing

It’s freezing today in Chicago and I’m dreaming of summery quilts on the warm grass 😍. Pattern: Ribbon Candy Quilt by Megan Collins Quilt Design #quiltsky #quilting #ribboncandyquilt

Back to sewing after a long holiday break! Double bear paw blocks are making me so happy! #quiltsky #quilting #doublebearpawquiltblock

I am not a seasonal quilt person, but I LOVE this Christmas quilt I made two summers ago! It’s basted and ready to be quilted. Hoping I’ll find time to finish it before Christmas is over (again 🫣😅). Pattern: Cabin Nights Quilt by Prairie Quilt Co. Fabric: AGF Christmas in the City #quiltsky

A zip pouch I made with my selvedge pineapple quilt block ✨ #quiltsky #selvedgepineapple

Sunday selvedge party! One of my favorite ideas ever. I think a pineapple block is such a fun way to use all of those beautiful selvedges many of us aimlessly collect for “one day”. #selvedgepineapple #quiltsky #pineapplequiltblock

This quilt was such a delight to make, scrappy 1” log cabins, surrounded by 1” squares in the border. It took absolutely forever (5 months 😂), but it taught me to slow down and enjoy the process. I hope to have more of that in 2025. I hope you’re having an excellent and relaxing Friday, #quiltsky!

Meadow Star quilt finished!!! Heading to Ohio today for thanksgiving and thrilled I finished it in time to gift it to my sister. I included hand-stitching around the stars and ties in the center as a small tribute to the beloved quilts of our grandmother ❤️. #quiltsky

Two threads to bury and some binding to sew on! Almost finished with my Meadow Star quilt. Happy Friday, #quiltsky!

Have you ever made something that makes you so effervescent, you just can’t stop? I felt that way when I was playing around with improv hourglass blocks and suddenly just KNEW what I had to make. This wild, sparkling pickle dish quilt was born of that feeling. Design wall progress so far. #quiltsky

Last month, I joined Tara Faughnan’s Block Studies Collective. Here are a few of the studies I’ve made so far, one of which really set my creativity off and I’m expanding it into a larger piece. I’ve loved this workshop and would recommend it to anyone looking to play with color! #quiltsky

Hey, #quiltsky! 👋🏻 I’m working on rapidly finishing my #meadowstarquilt. I used a mix of cottons, linens, and wovens and I’m loving the texture so far! What are you working on today?
