This updated version of the traditional brick path quilt block is a great way to shrink that scrap pile! The tutorial will walk you through sewing one pair of 12″ quilt blocks. My finished quilt will have 15 pairs (30 total blocks) arranged 5 blocks across by 6 blocks down for a finished size of…
It’s time for summer fun! It’s been a busy summer so far in my house. Things are slowing down a bit now, though, so I’m keeping a list of activities handy to battle boredom and keep my kids screen-free as much as possible.
The 4th of July is less than two weeks away! I meant to have this tutorial finished and ready to share weeks ago, but, as often happens around here, life got in the way. (Do I sound like a broken record?) It is a quick sew, though, thanks in part to some of the speedy…
I mentioned last month that I was considering joining in the 100 Days 100 Blocks Instagram Challenge again. I knew that if I did it a second time, I wanted to do a themed quilt of sorts. I tossed around a few different ideas, and then settled on a red theme. I LOVE red!!

I feel like I buckled, unbuckled and re-buckled a thousand carseats over the last seven days! Thankfully, everyone is on the mend now,…
I mentioned before that I’ve jumped headfirst into the world of Instagram swapping, primarily IG mini quilt swapping. Round three of the Schnitzel & Boo Mini Quilt Swap was actually my second IG mini swap. I’m sharing it now because Round Four is open for sign-ups, and you might want to jump in! (Find out…
I mentioned this mini quilt in a post a few weeks ago: Apartment Decorating on a Budget. I’ve been enjoying making mini quilts quite a bit lately, and I love the little pop of color and softness they add to a room. When I made plans to spend a weekend helping my oldest daughter decorate…
