Posted on August 8, 2012 by Sewfrench

And the Honeycomb quilt size has been determined. 95″w x 101″l. That’s a queen for a 20″ deep mattress, when it tucks under the pillow, not over it. Well, that is what I came up with, anyway. And as huge as it … Continue reading →

Posted on July 11, 2012 by Sewfrench

I’m not a lot further along than I was this time last week with my Honeycomb Quilt, straight from Malka Dubrawsky’s book Fresh Quilting. I have edited my fabrics down to more lights, solids and neutrals. I think I’ve calmed it down quite a … Continue reading →

Posted on June 27, 2012 by Sewfrench

I have to admit, I have never been involved in a fabric swap. Heck I have only been involved in one quilt a long, and not when it was happening live, LOL! So when I came across someone thinking about … Continue reading →

Posted on June 20, 2012 by Sewfrench

Ta Da! After 12 summers here, at the cottage, it’s nice to finally have some extra light in my sewing space. I finally got all the light switches in the right position and the stars must have aligned . Maybe … Continue reading →

The one where she figured out how best to piece circles!

Posted on November 23, 2011 by Sewfrench

Hmmm… I haven’t been here in a week and WordPress went and rearranged things on me.  How dare they. Trying to quickly write-up a post isn’t as quick as I had hoped.  Though I *love* the new uploading media button. … Continue reading →
