My grandaughter Ishta and her husband Evan both turned 30 this year. Their birthdays are within a few days of each other. So I decided to make them a quilt for their birthdays. I wanted this quilt to be a little wider than the size I usually make so I added 4 borders.

We recently spent some time designing and writing up the full step by step instructions for our very first quilt pattern. The Snuggle Blossom Crib Quilt pattern is now available in our Alanda Craft Store. Usually, the best part about making a quilt is choosing the fabric. But in this case, we designed the pattern first and then chose the fabrics. We made two quilts, one in … [Read more...] about Snuggle Blossom Crib Quilt- Our First Quilt Pattern

One day you may buy a quilt kit and when you get it home it's not quite what you were expecting. Well, that happened to me. Some time ago I bought a quilt kit that I intended to make up for one of my great-grandsons. When I got around to opening it, I was a bit disappointed as the pieces didn't seem to go together, there was no coherent theme, the instructions were awful and it … [Read more...] about Toddler Quilt – Axel’s Quilt – I See Animals Baby/Toddler Quilt
