I have been fascinated by barn quilts since I saw my first one in rural Michigan this past Christmas. I made my husband drive up a snow covered path so I could hop out of the car, scamper through the snow and snap a photo.

​Hello my lovelies and welcome to the Hexie Stripe show! I have lots to tell you about this pattern so without further ado, let's jump on in!

We’re getting intimate today, quilters. We’re going to talk about a very serious relationship: the one between you, and your sewing scissors.

There’s nothing better than a pair of scissors that glide with you through thick and thin, and on the other hand, nothing worse than a pair that just won’t cut it.

It's happening!! AHHH! Guys, it's happening!! I would say, "the people have asked and so I have conceded," but I'm pretty sure nobody asked...haha.

Anyway, ahhhh! I'm so excited I can't even get out what I'm trying to say.

I'M TEACHING A WORKSHOP!

The BEST embroidery machine, you say? That's a tall order. I'm going to try my best, but, like always, if you have a different favorite, I'd love to hear about it in the comments.

Sometimes, I go on Pinterest and search for things like “beautiful embroidery,” or “mind-blowing embroidery,” or “life-changing embroidery,” and just spend an evening staring at intricately woven floral patterns.

So by now, y’all have probably noticed that I’m not perfect. Like, not even close. Don’t worry about hurting my feelings – I totally own this. But quilting, it’s one of those crafts that demands as much perfection as you can give it.

Fellow quilters, and fellow humans, it’s time we talk about something no one really wants to talk about: how we all make mistakes. It’s true. I make ‘em. You make ‘em. I heard a rumor that sometimes, even Chuck Norris makes ‘em.
