This is the first stop! Today, I want to give you an honest story about the book that nearly wasn’t. I’ll try to keep it short. You can preorder Paint By Number Quilts here. I came up with the idea for Quilt By Numbers – as was my original...
I’m hoping that early next week my book(ette) will start arriving around US locations and to Amazon… This would be great news since the two week blog and Instagram tour starts on Monday 17th! Let me tell you a little about it. I have some of my best internet...
I’m not going to lie, these are not my best work. The side seams were really difficult with the pleats, and I ended up getting best results by gluing first and then sewing. Sadly, the blue one looks like it came into contact with some heat which melted the...
It’s nice not having deadlines. I’m doing some magazine writing, but not making right now. At first, it meant I could take a guilt-free break from sewing. We moved the mattress into the sewing room as used it as a place to sleep when the temperatures reached over 30...

Here is Canada 151, named because I used fabrics that were released to commemorate the Canadian sesquicentennial last year, and then didn’t actually make anything until just before Canada Day this year, finishing up on the stat day itself! Here are some of my favourite squares: Apart from changing...
I was so excited to get the Tula Pink rotary cuter for Christmas, it felt nice and weighty but comfortable in my hand, and like a good quality product. However, things changed a few months in. I made a vlog about my experience with the cutter (and the shop...
