I’m always down for a new gadget to try and when I saw this laser for making Half square triangles, I need I needed to try it!! No more drawing lines to follow! It’s secure, it’s bright and it doesn’t wiggle when I sew. Comment below with the word laser and I’ll share the link with you! Happy sewing! #quilting #sewingproject #sew #quilt #quiltersgonnaquilt #sewingroom #sew #hst #halfsquaretriangles

I avoided binding all the time. No matter what method I tried, it never turned out. I was frustrated and couldn’t figure out why it just wouldn’t click. Then I learned this technique and finally I started to get it. It took lots of practice but after several attempts my binding was actually looking, dare I say - GOOD!! I share this technique all the time because I want to help anyone struggling with binding like I was. You can do it! Watch the full length tutorial on my You Tube channel, comment below with the word binding and I’ll send you the link! And as a reminder- quilt police comments are not welcome. You can do binding any way you would like! This post is meant to encourage others & to teach new techniques, there is room for everyone at the table. #quilting #sewingproject #sew #quilt #quiltersgonnaquilt #binding #youtube #learnhowtosew

It has to be said… And honestly, I have used good old @coatsandclark thread for years. It works great in my machines holds up well and it’s affordable. I have tried many of the “better” brands and I’ll be honest, I haven’t been impressed enough to switch over. So don’t let anyone tell you that what thread is better. Use what works best in your machine and fits into your budget. And hey- to any of you quilt or should I said thread police, let’s stop shaming people for what supplies they use!! Be nice! #thread #sewing #quilting #bekind #sew #quilt #coatsandclark #sewingproject #quiltersgonnaquilt

I’ve had the 1/4” Plus Ruler for years… but I just unlocked its secret superpower: trimming half square triangles like a boss. I had no idea how much easier (and more accurate) this little guy could make my life. If you’re tired of wonky points or just want to speed things up, this tool is a game-changer. Want the link?

It’s like magic! I didn’t have any of my gridded interfacing handy so I drew a grid on paper and put it under my interfacing! It’s helps to keep my rows straight! Now what should I make with this cute baby block? It’s only 6 x 6.5”. Drop your ideas below and maybe it will become my next pattern! #sewingproject #quilting #sew #quilt #quiltersgonnaquilt #sewingroom #tinyblocks #quiltblock

True beauty in sewing isn’t perfection, it’s the love you stitch into every piece. #sewing #sew #quilting #quiltersgonnaquilt #quilting #integrity #makesomething #sewwithlove

I completely changed up my hutch decor and I must say… I love it! Without a coffee maker and all of my coffee “stuff” I needed something new. I’m also totally over the #raedunn trend. So here we are, ready for spring! Most items are from @homegoods and the hutch is from @schneidermansfurniture #Kitchen #kitchendecor #homegoods #homegoodsfinds #kitchenhutch #hutch #homedecorideas

The more I pause, the more I realize how much I’ve been missing. Life’s beauty is in the in-between moments. Not the big events or the checklist stuff, but the little things—like how the light hits the water, or the way everything gets quiet for a second. I think it’s easy to forget that sometimes. It’s so easy to get caught up in the hustle—the work, the deadlines, the to-do lists. But every once in a while, we need to stop and soak in the life we’ve worked so hard to build. Give yourself a little grace. Take the time to notice the small things—they’re often the ones that matter most. #realtalk #slowdown #enjoyeverymoment #life #behappy #chooseyou #bekind

Change the needle. This step is so often skipped and it may very likely be the cause of your skipped stitches and other issues you may be facing. Here’s what I do when I am having trouble. 1. Change the needle first. Did you know technically you should change your needle after every 6-8 hours of sewing… 2. Re-thread your machine. Yup, take all the thread out and start over! It really helps!! 3. Check the bobbin. Rethread that as well. 4. Clean your machine, maybe you have some dust bunnies living in there. 5. When is that last time you oiled your machine?! ( if your machine takes oil, this is important to know) I had a lady tell me that in 25 years she’s never changed a needle. I don’t know how that’s even possible! 🫣 Save this for next time your machine is making you want to throw it out the window and do this first! #sewingproject #sewing machine #sewingmachinemaintenance #sewing #sew #modernsewist

I used to think quilting was only for the perfectionist. The ones with perfect seams, perfect points, perfect everything. 
And if mine didn’t look like that? I must be doing it wrong. Then I saw some quilts on display in a quilt shop and I looked real close and noticed, their points didn’t match up either. Which is when I realized that I was putting far too much pressure on myself & those thoughts left me feeling like I didn’t ever want to quilt and I hadn’t even tried. So I got out of my own head and started quilting. I practiced, and learned new techniques and was having the best time, mismatched points and all. 
Turns out… I just needed to do it my way. My newest quilt pattern dropped this week and it’s very beginner friendly! I even have some you tube videos to help you out with this one! Comment below with the word LEMONADE and I’ll send you the link to the pattern!

Today I made 450” of binding for my king size quilt. 🤯 I’ve been putting it off, because this quilt is a beast! But today was the day. I grabbed my fabric and this silicone binding maker from @quiltedheartz and my binding was done in no time. It made pressing & making the binding so much faster! It’s so much faster using this one little tool! And anyone who says otherwise, hasn’t tried it! 🤣 Now my bedroom quilt is almost ready and I can’t wait it to show you!! #quilting #binding #quiltersgonnaquilt #sew #quiltlove #bind #sewingproject #quiltpattern
