Our Country Bungalow: Bohemian Quilt
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2015/06/bohemian-quilt.html
Last week my daughter was getting ready for a big move. She was due to leave Friday and the weekend before I decided I should make her a simple quilt in the bright bohemian colors that she loves. I had 5 days to do it. Did I make it? Why yes, I did. The key was to make it with big squares that would be fast to put together. I also thought big squares would let some of the bold fabric patterns show nicely. It was hard to get a clear picture because he kept moving the porch swing! You are very talented!

Our Country Bungalow: Mid February Already
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2015/02/mid-february-already.html
It's been a couple of weeks since the beginning of February and the sewing machines have been kept busy. My latest project is another scrappy half square triangle quilt made primarily with the Collections for a Cause collection by Howard Marcus for Moda. I never seem to grow weary of scrappy HST quilts. I made this quilt smaller; it's throw sized instead of bed sized because I wanted it for cozying up with in the living room by the fire. I used flannel for the back and it's been just right.

Our Country Bungalow: Tuesday Morning Quilting
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2014/11/tuesday-morning-quilting.html
I finished a quilt on Sunday and got it all loaded on the frame. Now on to the fun part. I'm very new at longarming, and it has been a challenge to relearn how to quilt by moving the machine instead of the quilt, but I really love it. It's like drawing with thread!

Striped Pashmina Throw {Simple Sew}. By Kate Riley •. September 12, 2011. A few weeks ago, my friend Janell. Sent me a set of five colorful pashmina wraps as a thank you for writing an article for her recent House of Fifty. Magazine. I love the silky feeling of them and have several already in my closet in similar colors. I thought I’d turn a few into a striped throw blanket to toss over a chair or over my lap when I catch up on my reading. . 4 Cut two layers of cotton batting to the size of your throw...

NEW PROJECT #1: A BATHROOM RENO ON A BUDGET. September 27, 2016. September 27, 2016. By Stephanie @ Studio 36 Interiors. Good morning lovely readers! My apologies for how long it’s been since my last post! I decided to take some time this summer to work on purging and organizing some areas around my house. I’m rather OCD about this kind of thing so it took me a little awhile, but it feels so good to have everything in order now! And my bonus room was featured at Thrifty Decor Chick’s blog. These are curr...

Our Country Bungalow: Boy Quilts
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2015/03/boy-quilts.html
I finished a couple of bright and bold quilts for kids. The quilt tops were designed and made by Marsha for her grandsons. She chose Minky for the back for extra softness. It's amazing how these lightweight quilt tops become these cozy and substantial blankets after sandwiching the top, batting, and velvety backing together with some custom quilting! The animal print fabric was a challenge to quilt because I wanted to preserve the animal faces featured throughout the fabric. Mennonite Girls Can Cook.

Our Country Bungalow: Late Winter....
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2014/03/late-winter.html
Winter feels like it's dragging on and on. I suppose it isn't really, since it's normal to see snow around here in late February/early March. I think it just feels long because there has been so much snow this year. Just So. Much. Snow. I wonder when we last saw the uncovered ground? Albert is growing and has taken to climbing up to the back of the couch and looking out of the window. He is too little to ever know what warm weather is like and yet he seems to be asking when it will be Spring. It's Monday...

Our Country Bungalow: Quilted in time for Christmas
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2014/12/quilted-in-time-for-christmas.html
Quilted in time for Christmas. I recently finished quilting a large John Deere themed quilt on the longarm for a customer. I just love how it turned out. This quilt also offered the challenge of finding quilting themes that were more suited for a guy, rather than the feathers and hearts and flowers that I have been perfecting on other quilts. I ended up doing some stipling, some curves and a lot of pebbling, and I imagined building rock walls while quilting. It will be a Christmas gift for her son. The P...

Our Country Bungalow: The Scrappy Quilt and Albert
http://www.ourcountrybungalow.com/2014/10/the-scrappy-quilt-and-albert.html
The Scrappy Quilt and Albert. I finished a scrappy blue quilt a couple of weeks ago. I barely got a chance to lay it out and look it over before somebody decided to try and claim it for themselves. I practiced a few new quilting stitches. It's funny how in the middle of the quilting you can feel like you're just making a mess of things but in the end you finish and you don't really see the flaws too much anymore. The quilt and Mr. Al are both pretty darn cute. Love the colors you chose! The Charm of Home.
