My First Blog Post

Lisa • January 31, 2022

It’s official, I have a blog. And I am learning how to use it.

I have finally decided to take the plunge and add a blog to my site. Keep coming back to my site and check for updates right here on the blog.

I don't always feel like I have a lot to say, after all I design my quilts for beginners using traditional piecing. The cutting and sewing is all straight seams so how many tips can I give you? I do get questions occasionally so I will post those here with their answers. And I like to share what I am working on next so if you are looking for more information about Counted Quilts or my process as a designer this is where you find them.

Plus the rare event or sale. With kids still at home I currently only do 1-2 shows a year. I do my best keeping prices down so new sewers are able to take this beginner project guilt free any time, no sale necessary.

I have a few different cat patterns, was a Cheetah was suggested a while back at a show. I finally gave it a try. It took a few tries to get it right, but I am really please with the result. This one was made in rich batiks, but I would love to try it again in softer colors for a baby's jungle room.
