Dutchman’s Puzzle

April 23, 2017 Anne Brock

Up until the past year or so, I would have described all of my quilts so far as modern or improv. Sometimes I would follow a pattern, but many times I’d create something as I went. Part of the reason for this is that I wasn’t very good at following instructions – or at least… Continue reading Dutchman’s Puzzle

Earth

April 22, 2017 Anne Brock

Do you ever look out the window in amazement at the trees, wondering how they know to grow and become? I do. Do you ever look in awe at the various shades of green that encompass your backyard, grateful for many hues? I do. Do you ever get the urge to look up and then… Continue reading Earth

Permission

April 15, 2017April 14, 2017 Anne Brock

So, her fabric squares ended up being her guest book. After… Continue reading Fail

Solstice QAL Update

March 17, 2017July 3, 2022 Anne Brock

We’re half way between the winter and summer solstices now. The only reason I know that is because I’m doing a Solstice Quilt Along. Each week Pat Sloan adds a new block pattern to her website for anyone to print off and create on their own. I’m really enjoying it! This is my first QAL… Continue reading Solstice QAL Update

Motive

March 8, 2017 Anne Brock

I’m currently in the middle of reading Liz Gilbert’s book Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear. I appreciate that she writes in short bursts – I can read a bit and let that section soak in awhile before reading the next. A couple days ago I read a section she entitled “Motives.” I started thinking… Continue reading Motive
