Bowl covers for my stand mixer bowls. I make a lot of homemade bread and this will be so much better than just using a towel to cover the dough. #QuiltSky #sewing #quilting #MenWhoQuilt

My second nephew is due anytime now and I finally completed the baby quilt for him. I love how this blue and grey tumble patchwork turned out. Straight line quilted in navy to add a pop of contrast. #quiltsky #MenWhoQuilt #quilting

I finally decided that I wanted a wall hanging to put up and I love how this Carpenter’s Star pattern turned out! Once my new machine comes in, in a few days I will used this piece to practice quilting on it. Pattern used “Carpenter’s Wheel by Donna Jordan “ #quiltsky #MenWhoQuilt

I’m definitely excited today I was able to push the order button on a new sewing machine. Now I just have to patiently wait a week for it to get here. And I feel like I got a great deal from Sewing Parts Online. #quilting #QuiltSky #MenWhoQuilt #BabyLock

Today under my needle window seal logs. I’ve noticed some cold air coming in at the bottoms of my window this winter. So I decided to make some logs to place in the window. I’ve gotten a couple of them down and they seem to be working! I wasn’t sure what to do with this flower print fabric because

No one ever tells you how much cutting and ironing going into making a quilt and I have to say I honestly hate cutting fabric. As for ironing let’s just say I’m a rebel and sometimes it happens and sometimes it does not. #quiltsky #quilting #MenWhoQuilt

I think this was the second quilt I had made. Even as a fifth generation quilter and learning lots from my grandmothers and mother. I still turn to YouTube a lot as I am a visual learner. This is your reminder that it doesn’t matter how you start as long as you start. You will find not perfect

Needing advice on a new mini iron. I was sitting here today and noticed the one I have was acting as though it was heating even though it’s set to 0 (it’s off position). This is the first I’m noticing of this and the iron is several years old and on the cheaper side. It has been unplugged

Forever dreaming of the day I can afford to get a larger sewing machine that will also double as a long arm. A few more months and then hopefully I can do more then quilt tops and straight line quilting #quiltinglife #quilting

We needed a new curtain for our back door a few months ago and I absolutely love how this patchwork curtain turned out. I made two panels and then backed them with plain white to help insulate and hide the seems. #quilting #quiltsky

Any advice or resources out that for someone wanting to write a quilt patten? I have put this top together once and plan to a second time to try and document everything. I have been looking at patterns to try and get a feel for it but any suggestions would be helpful. Designed with EQ8! #Quilting

Being physically disabled I spent a lot of time grew up in doors but that also gave me a chance to watch my grandmother and mother at the sewing machine. Fast forward to a few years ago when I needed a hobby and what should call to me, a sew machine. I took up making quilt tops and quilted throws.

Making me a 5th generation quilter in my family. I’m blessed to still have one grandmother and mother around that I can asked questions to. Along with the countless videos people put out. I’m definitely a visual learner when it comes to patterns.

One of my favorite quilt top throws that I have made. Pieced top with a purple fleece backing. Stitched inside out to bind and top stitched around the heart to finish. All completed on a domestic machine #quilting #menwhoquilt
