I was taught quilting the old fashioned way by my grandmother, and now I make handmade quilts primarily for my many nieces and nephews, as well as other special projects. Follow my quilts in progress here and find out about how you can purchase my unique handmade baby quilts and kids quilts.

Oh how I love a cute little fabric store



One of my favorite ways to spend a weekend afternoon is browsing (and buying!) fabrics! I'm so glad that nearby there is an adorable little fabric store with a beautiful selection and fabulously helpful staff! It's called Sew Modern (now isn't that just a perfect name?) and it's located on Pico in West LA.

Happy sewing!

Fabrics for new projects






Just some leftovers and scraps, but they look pretty good together for a little baby quilt.




I just love the vintage feel of these adorable patterns!



These two fabrics need some friends! Then I'm going to turn them into a quilt for....myself!

Baby quilt in progress - blue, coral / orange and pink

Th quilt below is now in the quilting phase. I am making this one for a friend's new baby.  The fabrics were chosen to coordinate with her baby room decor, which is by Cocala Couture. 


Baby quilt in progress - pink and brown birdies

This quilt is one of two currently in progress for my twin nieces, who just turned 1. The material coordinates with the decor that is already in their bedroom.
