There’s something special about a “last one.”  But not in a sad way!  This Avalon Quilt marks the third and final baby quilt I made in 2025, and finishing it felt like three things all at once: a celebration, a relief, and a sweet little ending to this chapter of quilting.

Some quilts come together in a weekend. Others take a little longer. And then there are the ones that sit in the closet, tucked away, waiting for the right season of life to be picked back up again.

This blog post is the second installment of my Color Theory for Quilters series.  We're diving into five tried-and-true color schemes for quilting that you can use to make confident, joyful choices in your next fabric pull.

Each year, I wait with anticipation for Pantone to announce their color of the year! The Pantone Color of the Year announcement is like a creative prompt from the universe, an invitation to try something new, to stretch beyond my usual color comfort zone, and to see what unexpected beauty can unfold when you follow a spark.

This year, the color was Mocha Mousse!

I am so excited to bring you the first of a multi-part blog series all about fabric selection! The number one question I get asked about my quilting is how I come up with my fabric pulls and a lot of that has to do with color theory.

There’s just something magical about making a quilt for a brand new little human. Every fabric choice feels more meaningful and every stitch carries hope.  This quilt is one of those extra special ones. A gift for a co-worker’s new baby girl, made with joy, anticipation, and the softest blend of pinks and purples.
