Super excited to get this one started! Its 1 whole piece. No Patchwork, or seams. Just focus on the beautiful free motion quilting. Moving around some of the frame work and starting to add all the fun elements. I am a hand guided quilter. Meaning none of this is computer quilting. I don’t care for […]

Quilt Sunday the workroom Toronto, ON February 23, 2014
I’ve had this simple quilt sandwich basted and rolled up waiting for its addition of scraps and stitchin’ to make it into a ticker tape. I got to thinking about our limited basting space in the class room and that a simple, modern AND most importantly small quilt could do the trick for teaching the basic...Read More »

Are you a quilt lover, but not quite a quilter? If so, this listing is for you! You'll see that I have quilt kits available and I can finish them for you! Please read through the item description before purchasing. If you have any questions - please reach out! This listing is for a finished whole cloth quilt that is made to order. First, choose your fabric and quilt size by scrolling through the "Whole Cloth Quilt Kits" section of my shop. Here you'll see all of the available made to order quilt kits. When you find one that you like, go ahead and add the kit to your cart. Some kits are only available in Baby/Children's size and some are available in Baby/Children's size as well as Throw size. When you know which fabric and size you'd like, go ahead and purchase the quilt kit AND this listing. Please make sure that if you are purchasing a Baby/Children's size quilt kit that you also purchase this listing in Baby/Children's size. And if you are purchasing a Throw size quilt kit, you will need to purchase this listing in Throw size. A finished Baby/Children's size quilt is approximately 40x45". A finished throw size quilt is approximately 50x60". All of the fabric that I use is quality quilting cotton. I will always pre-wash the quilt before sending it to you. I prefer to give the quilt it's first wash so that the quilt will arrive ready to snuggle with those quilt crinkles that we all know and love. Quilt fabric and batting are all 100% cotton. Some of the fabrics that I use are a linen/cotton blend. Quilts can be machine washed in cold water. It is preferred that you use a natural detergent without any harsh fragrances. Natural detergents can help to prolong the life of the quilt. Tumble dry low or line dry. Turnaround time is typically 2-6 weeks. I give this larger window to allow myself time when life happens and takes away my sewing time :) If you'd like to know more of a specific turnaround time - please reach out and I can update you with a better estimate based off of my current project list. All of the photos in this listing are examples of whole cloth quilts that I have made. You will receive a whole cloth quilt made with the quilt kit that you purchase. Quilts are made by me in my home sewing studio. My home is smoke and fragrance free. My sewing studio is pet free.
Two layers of Embrace Double Gauze from Shannon Fabrics with Pellon Wool Batting in the middle makes for a super soft and cuddly quilt. The wool is lighter and fluffier than cotton batting — the only difference in care is that it can't go in the dryer. It's just returned...
When most people think of quilts, they think of sewing together pieces of fabric as patchwork or appliqué. Actually, what makes a quilt is the layers of fabric that are stitched together. You can make a quilt by using two pieces of whole cloth with a layer of batting in between. The stitching you use to sew a whole ...

I started this whole-cloth quilt with a beautiful blank slate! I wanted to experiment with what would happen if hand-stitching created the design instead of fabric. Blogged at Six White Horses.
My newest favorite project - a simple, soft, lightweight quilt. Although this blanket is not technically a quilt because it does not contain a middle layer of batting, I’m calling it a quilt. Simple to make with 2 layers of double gauze fabric stitched together with either perle cotton or embroid
