The Pauletta Stone
When I first got this “kit” for the Dear Jane quilt, it came with a piece of the background fabric that had a 13×13 grid of 1″ squares basted to […]

The Countable Y-Seams
In this triangle block, I’m using one of three new green fabrics I found at the scrap extravaganza! Since I worked on this block on the first day of fall […]
