Hello, hello! I am still here! But I can't show you too many sewing projects. I couldn't find energy to sew lately- I think I needed a break! But I am dreaming of a lot of future projects. I have tons of beautiful fabrics! I managed to finish a project though! Here is my new pattern. This is the second pillow I made with this geometric pattern. Could you say from the pictures that the design … [Read more...]
Raw Edge Applique Quilted Pillow
I finally finished one of the projects I have in the works. A pillow made with the fast technique that is fusible raw edge applique. Just in time to enter it into the "2014 Pantone Quilt Challenge"; so here is my 16'' pillow. I love this design I made a few months ago; at first I thought to make a miniature quilt then I changed my mind; the 3D look is more visible on a pillow. I love that I … [Read more...]
Follow Your Passion!
I started quilting almost 13 years ago and at the time I certainly didn’t think that someday I will turn my passion for quilting into a little business. Any beginning is hard and mine was as well; but many people have helped me along the way, in a way or another. 8-9 years ago I had a few kaleidoscope kits for sale and Mihaela was my first Romanian customer. She bought the kit and sent me an … [Read more...]

Square in Square Quilt
Here is my new quilt, made with Kona cotton. 40'' x 40'' After I quilted feathers on hexagons I wanted to see how the feathers look quilted on squares. It was easy to fill the space with feathers. The back - more texture than color - I would have loved the quilting to be more visible. Next time I will have to experiment quilting with thick thread. And here are … [Read more...]

Together in a Friendship World
Our friendship quilt is finally finished. Its story is here. I told you how terrified I was when I washed the quilt; well, lots of worries for nothing. The quilt is perfectly flat and the sphere is almost perfect. The sphere measures 80'' and the difference between the horizontal and vertical diameter is 1/8'' (but a little more on other diameters). Mihaela named this quilt "Together in a … [Read more...]
