Hi everyone! How’s it going? It’s been *cough* a while *cough* since I’ve posted, and I’m in no way promising that I will be updating regularly, because I know better. If you want more regular peeks into my life, you can find me on instagram as @playcrafts. But I thought […]
Works in Progress
Hey everyone! Remember the Pantone Challenge? How’s it going? Adrianne and I are super excited to see what you’ve been making! The link-up is coming SOON, but it’s not too late to make something! Remember that there is a tops-only category and a mini category (which includes bags and other […]
Hi everyone! I’ve been working on the tutorial for these blocks, and have all the photos taken (which is the biggest barrier for me for some reason), so will have the tutorial done this week for sure. Yay! But before I post that, I wanted to show you how the […]
Next week, approximately 25,000 game developers and game industry professionals will be in San Francisco for the Game Developer’s Conference (GDC). I have attended a few times, but this year I’ll be there in a slightly different capacity. Last year, Andreas Zecher and Cory Schmitz created an open-source graphic for […]

Well I didn’t get the plaid quilt finished, but I did get it quilted! This is a small quilt, at 24″ x 24″, so the quilting went fast, AND it fixed all the weird wrinkle issues I was having. PHEW! I guess it’s true, it really will quilt out! Now […]
I haven’t been sewing as much as I would like, but after getting a couple major deadlines dealt with, I had some time to play recently. I’ve been toying around with ideas for the Michael Miller Spring Couture challenge for QuiltCon, and I finally came up with a design I […]
Week two of redefining what WIP stands for! I mentioned last week that I went to a workshop over the weekend, and I’ve finally had time to get all the photos off my camera. There’s a lot of photos. It was New York just past the peak foliage season, so […]
I was gone most of last week at a workshop in the Catskills with Heather Ross and Denyse Schmidt. Gorgeous location and super fun workshop! I’ll probably do a post about it next week after I’ve had time to process through everything I learned. I was stuck on the plane for […]
So last week I decided on a whim that I really wanted to enter a quilt into a local show entitled Amish: A Modern Muse. They wanted Amish-inspired designs, and how that is interpreted is left vague on purpose. I was at the Bay Area Modern Quilt Guild‘s meeting to […]
