Custom Animal Quilts
I’ve been pretty preoccupied these past few months. No surprise that it has taken me this long to post this. I learned that I was going to be an aunt, and I decided to fly to Malaysia to visit my sister. Very interesting times at the moment and it would be even more interesting in the near future! Did so much baby clothes shopping! There are so much out there and they are so cute!! For now, let…

Quilt wall lovin'
Quilt wall lovin’
We have had the same furniture and same stuffy arrangement in our house for ages. I think part of growing into your 30s is an appreciation for form and function and the need to declutter. I remembered how much I rated bean bags as an alternative seating arrangement in my 20s. We sold out couches two weeks back and had to use bean bags in between couches. It was excruciating. How I use to do it in…

Steamer Trunk Dog Bed
Summer is finally here at long last! It has been a hot and sunny couple of weeks, too hot to be sitting in the craft room piecing together a wall quilt. I haven’t abandoned the project completely but it is looking to be a slow finish.
However with that said, I have a few projects that have been sitting in the back burner for far too long. I needed outdoor space to spread out and dry weather. So…

Typography Wall Quilt
Typography wall quilt
Recently, I have done more and more typographical pieces. I enjoy constructing type with patchwork craftiness. I am on the verge of updating my living room and I am coming up with ideas on what to do with the walls. I don’t really want to repaint the walls with a feature colour, what we have currently is perfectly fine. With that said, I do want a little something that will give my small living…

More cushions!
I’ve started making a few more food related cushions for The Market NZ.
I’m also working on a few more covers which incorporates the traditional block using all the pretty fat quarters I acquired from Bolt of Cloth.

You're going to need these.
It is important to have the basic tools to ease you into your project. There is nothing more exasperating than having your momentum stopped because you’re missing a thing or two.
When I started my first quilt, the only tools I had were a tiny cutting mat, 8.5” quilt ruler, rotary cutter, scissors, pins, thread and sewing needles. I began by hand sewing because I wasn’t sure if this was for me and…

Beginners 16" Octagonal Nine Patch Cushion Cover
Octagonal Nine Patch Cushion Cover
This is a pretty quick and easy project. You’d be able to get this done in an hour or two, which makes it so gratifying and fun! It’s also a great platform to start and see if patchwork is for you. Let’s begin!
A) Background fabric B) Front fabric
For material, you will need 5 fat quarters (18″ x 22″) and 18″ square batting:
2 fat quarters for patchwork (front and background)
1 fat quarter for…

Awesome Sauce!
Scrap cushion cover completed! I got through this half way and noticed that it is another food related patchwork! Food is not just a nourishment, it is an obsession bordering on totalitarian. Based on my compulsion to make quilts and a love of food, I should have been a bear. Snuggle and eat. If it wasn’t for my trusty Labrador who takes me out for a walk everyday, I would be a bear right now. A…

Leo the animal quilt
I finished Leo last week and sent him on his way to his forever home. I didn’t want to put up any photos until his new owner gets to see him first hand. He arrived at his new pad today and I foresee a lot of snuggle time ahead for the both of them. I love making quilts and I love it more when other people love it too! Thank you Jessica for giving me this wonderful chance of making you an animal…

A little hoarding never hurt nobody. I'm looking out my window and I see grey and rain. It seems like Auckland is having a hard time getting herself in gear towards summer.
Scraping away! Scrap hoarding is OK after all! Patchwork is coming together slowly but surely and I am so glad I'm putting all my scraps to good use.
Scraps Scraps and more SCRAPS!
Making use of bits of leftover scraps!
I find it the hardest to throw away perfectly good scraps of material leftover from previous projects. I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in this one. However, what can be done with scraps which are too small for much, but too big to throw away? I have made a salvage quilt a few years back and I loved every back-breaking second of it. Deep down, I still believe in the quintessential principal of quilt…

Fryday fry-up!
Managed to wrap this project up, just right in time for Halloween’s night drinks! It’s a patchwork quilted cushion cover of a bacon and eggs fry up. I so happen to think this is quirky cute. And it’s looking mighty fine on my couch with my quilt :D
Have a happy Halloween everyone! May your costumes be spooky and your candy baskets be filled with real candy!!

A perfect egg, hatches into a perfect bird. With an amazing homemade costume like this, who wouldn't? This kid is so lucky to have such a creative mom.
Quilt in progress
Patching a chevron, one triangle at a time!
Slowly but steadily patching along. I think I’m getting there nicely. A few more rows to go and I can start attaching its legs and tail. After that, it’s a matter of creating the shape of the head with eyes, nose and ears details.
Each one of these come out differently, mostly because I cut the shape of the head freehand (no templates). I’ll let the fabrics and body pattern dictate how the head…

1. It’s all bollocks and none of it really matters. Yes really. That stress about the thing that went really wrong, your burning desire to make this your best design ever that in turn makes you miserable, the argument about the late print, graphic design, none of this is what really really matters...
A ladder for quilts? Yes, please!
I hope I have better luck with tools and woodworks now than when I was in high school. That music box I built was tragic to say the least! But I live in hope :D
I have been searching high and low for an old beat up wooden ladder for years with the idea of converting it to a quilt ladder. However, they always seem a little narrow, too tall and frankly…a little beat up.
You can imagine how impressed I was, when I found an easy DIY blanket/quilt ladder from tinysidekick.com. She made a quilt ladder for $5! That’s a steal!!
So yes, I will file this away in…
