How to Bind a Quilt - a video tutorial from Shiny Happy World

Some people hate binding. I absolutely love it! I use a combination of machine and had sewing and I adore those last couple of evenings with my beautiful new quilt in my lap.

2012

Dimples - a free pincushion pattern from Shiny Happy World

My favorite pincushion shape! I have multiples and keep one at my sewing machine, one at my ironing board, and one to rove around with me wherever I’m working.

Hacky Sack - a free crochet pattern from FreshStitches and Shiny Happy World

An easy beginner pattern and a great way to use up scraps.

How to Hide the Messy Back of a Hooped Embroidery Piece - a tutorial from Shiny Happy World

If you care about that sort of thing. 😁 I normally don’t, but if I’m making something like a Christmas tree ornament where both sides may be visible, I’ll often finish the back this way.

Bear Lovie pattern from Shiny Happy World

The Big Bag - a free large tote bag pattern from Shiny Happy World

I based the size and shape of this bag on a tote I got IN HIGH SCHOOL and still use decades later. It is, in my opinion, the perfect bag.

2019

***Included in Week 21 Sale***

One of my most popular woodland critters.

A silly monster as part of my 100 Day drawing challenge. I love the bumps on his skin and his groovy turtleneck.

2021

The start of a terrific work in progress – calculating the fabric needed for my quilts in ALL the common sizes and as many different layout possibilities as I can think of.

2022

My fun Good Dog fabric collection in a pretty pink palette.

2023

A very pretty experiment. I need to make more of these!
