Somehow I forgot to post this finish, and it’s one of my favorites! Jake’s family grew up alongside the Reade family. Jake has been best friends with Jason since he was born (their moms met in a ‘mommy and me’ group when their older siblings were little). He was the best man at our weddingRead more
Since we moved to Orange County last year I’ve been really fortunate to become friends with several of my new colleagues. When I was interviewing at different clinics I immediately fell in love with my current clinic because of the people. There are lots of “mamas” in my clinic and everyone is super friendly. ColleaguesRead more
This is a super late post. I’ve been meaning to take pictures of this finish for a LONG time. I finally finished Teegan’s quilt made with his baby clothes. This quilt was made similarly to Mila’s, but instead of 5 inch squares I cut 4 inch squares. I stabilized the knits with a lightweight iron-onRead more
Ok guys, I’m excited. I’ve got several finishes to share with you. We’ll do them one at a time to make me feel more accomplished 🙂 My first baby quilt of the year is for my friend Carolyn. She worked with me in Boston, and I miss her dearly. She’s also Mila’s godmother. She (notRead more
Most of you already know how much I loved my obstetrician. My pregnancies were not entirely smooth sailing and having an ob that was calm and confident was vital for me. I’m not sure that being a doctor is an advantage when you are a patient- in fact, I think it’s detrimental. About halfway throughRead more
This will be the third quilt I have made with Robot Factory (which is now out of print and practically impossible to find). The first quilt I made was for my nephew from the pattern Pow Wow by Cluck Cluck Sew and then I made a simple square patchwork quilt for the son of oneRead more
I think this is one of my favorite finishes of all time. It is definitely not the most complicated quilt I have ever sewn. In fact, it’s probably the easiest. When Mila outgrew her newborn and 0-3 month onesies, I set them aside to make her a baby quilt. I cut out 5 inch squares,Read more
It’s been a really long time since I blogged. I’m definitely busy working full time and being a mama. My little girl is already 9 months old. She’s on the move, so there aren’t any slow moments around here. After a full week of work, I find myself wanting to nap when she naps onRead more
I think this is my favorite baby quilt so far. As soon as I saw the Glam Garlands quilt in Elizabeth Hartman’s book Modern Patchwork: 12 Quilts to Take you Beyond the Basics, I knew it was destined to be a baby quilt. The pattern is written as a throw size which was way too bigRead more
I realized that I never put up a post about the baby quilt I finished for my nephew Elliot! There were a few posts along the way, but I forgot to post the finished quilt! I actually finished sewing the binding on this quilt when I was hospitalized with pre-term labor, so I had otherRead more
