Hemming Pants

Posted in /Fabric_Projects on Sunday, April 01, 2018


As a short girl from a family of short girls I've been hemming pants for years. My latest pair of jeans fit perfectly everywhere except for the length, which happened to be almost 7 inches too long!

Boxtrot Quilt

Posted in /Fabric_Projects/Quilts on Saturday, July 22, 2017


My roommate was using an old beat up comforter on his bed. He would never say that he needed a new quilt but I decided that it was a need. He has a sailboat that he loves to take adventures on (here are some pictures of our trip with him) so I used that as inspiration for the fabric.

The right side of the quilt border is larger so that it can be tucked in nicely to prevent it from shifting around at night. It was not a mistake, I promise!

Finished Quilts

Here are my finished quilts

My first quilt

This picture was taken at Golden Brook Elementary School in Windham, NH. The town has an annual craft show that students could enter their projects to be judged. I believe that is a second place ribbon next to the quilt.I was probably around 8 years old in the picture (estimate is based on the length of my bangs, wow I don't miss those).

9 Patch Snowball Quilt

Posted in /Fabric_Projects/Quilts on Saturday, July 15, 2017


This is a quilt for my nephew Tyrus. The quilt has two different blocks, the 9 patch and the snowball. I made each block in two colours and the 9 patches were made into two different configurations so there are a total of 6 different blocks.
