Free Quilt Pattern: Equalizer Quilt
Remember the Equalizer Quilt? I had the best intentions of writing a free pattern or tutorial for this quilt, and never got around to it . . . until now! It’s been nearly a year in the making, but I’m happy to say that I’ve written a pattern for this beginner friendly quilt, which I’ll […]

Nelsonville Cabin and Quilts

Scrappy Triangles: Pillow Talk Swap
In the midst of an epic week, I finished my scrappy triangles pillow for the Pillow Talk Swap on Flickr. I went with text prints and assorted scraps for the front, and Anna Maria Horner LouLouThi for the border. I hope my partner likes what I came up with! I was originally thinking about a […]
