I designed this quilt solely with the intent of entering Quiltcon. I did enter two other quilts too (Scallops and Arlecchino) but this one was the only one with that agenda from the start. Each square – or almost sorta squareish shape – is 1/2″, so there’s as much...
A month or two ago, our neighbour came over to look at my pictorial quilts after my husband had been talking over the fence about them. She wanted a picture of their two dachshunds for their daughter, but I knew it would be out of price range, even with...
I’ve simply named this mini quilt “left”. I’ve tried to incorporate arrow signs pointing left, after the Speed Date With Improv class with Krista Hennebury last month gave me lots of pieces that could create arrow-like shapes. It challenged my left brain, the side that likes to be organised...

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...
