When you get a call that the marketing team from Toyota needs a quilt for a photoshoot, you say YES first and ask questions later. As you can imagine, it’s not everyday that corporate America is requesting handmade original textiles, so immediately I was intrigued, excited, and (to be really real) nervous.

Quilters have scraps. If you’ve made a few quilts, you know what I’m talking about.
The Courthouse Steps quilt is an oldie. A reeeaaaal oldie. We’re talking civil-war-era-old.

Get ready for everything you never knew you never knew about the Courthouse Steps quilt pattern.
This post is a follow up to a previous article – Sew Pro Convention: Part 1. If you are unfamiliar with Sew Pro, hop on over to that post for a quick skim. Also, Stephanie from Modern Sewciety and I chat all about it on her podcast.

Got it? Don’t feel pegged down by it. Like myself, it probably changes based on season, mood, or current fabric obsession. If you were to ask me a last week, I’d say SPARKLES!!
Have you ever met someone and just had that instant connection? No work. No awkward pauses. Just like-minded souls colliding and mutually realizing that this thing that's happening is unique and fun and super special??
Well I had that friendship spark when I met Stephanie from Modern Sewciety.
Whether you’re a newbie quilter or someone who has been sewing for decades, there’s always something new to learn – be it a time-saving tip or a new handy notion.
I am made aware of my knowledge...and lack of knowledge every time I get an email from a fellow quilter asking about specific sewing techniques.
