Sweet Poppet Pouches {Moonbeam Dreams Fabric Tour}

Tuesday, November 7, 2023



Hello my sewing friends!  I'm in New Mexico at my momma's as I write this blog post and the weather here is so beautiful!  I'm excited to tell you about this lovely fabric by Poppie Cotton called Moonbeam Dreams.  I have to tell you that the colors of this fabric collection are not usually what I am drawn to but oh my goodness do I absolutely LOVE this fabric.  

Fall Sewing! {Hide and Seek Fabric Tour}

Thursday, October 12, 2023



How did it happen that fall is already here???  It seems like summer is a whirlwind and then before I can catch a breath, in comes fall!  

I received this new fabric collection from Poppie Cotton a few months ago and the first glance I had of it made me think of fall and I've been excited to sew some pretty fall things and finally I had a day to sit down and get it done!  

The fabric collection is called Hide and Seek and it has such sweet little creatures!  The butterflies and bunnies are my favorite! 

My Garden Journal {Fabric Tour}

Friday, September 15, 2023




When Poppie Cotton sent me a bundle of one of their new fabric lines called Garden Party Fabric, designed by Sheri McCulley, I will admit that I was neck deep in other projects as well as an early spring full of everything to do on the farm.  I put the bundle of fabric in a large glass canister jar and just admired it for a couple months.   (Speaking of which, I really need to take a picture of my numerous glass canisters lined up with new Poppie Cotton fabric lines this year... I love how they look all lined up on the counter in my sewing room!). 

Dresden Plates {Prairie Sisters Homestead Fabric Tour}

Monday, August 7, 2023






Have you ever sewn Dresden Plates?  Can you believe that I have only done them one time in a simple little project?  I've always wanted to do more, but they really intimidate me and look super complicated.  

Sweet Essentials Kit {Delightful Department Store Tour}

Wednesday, July 12, 2023




Today I'm excited to share my project with this super beautiful fabric collection called Delightful Department Store by Poppie Cotton.  This is just such a fun, vintage look collection.  It has been sitting on my sewing counter for a few months as I drool over it.  I really love to have fabric speak to me before I start cutting into it and so I was patiently waiting!  

Holiday Mini Quilt {Oh What Fun Fabric Tour}

Tuesday, June 20, 2023






Happy June, my friends!  It's not very often that I sew with Christmas fabric in June (if ever!) but when Poppie Cotton sent me this oh so lovely fat quarter bundle of Oh What Fun fabric by my favorite designer Elea Lutz, I knew immediately I would be making a holiday wall hanging!  Last year during the winter holidays I was so bothered by the fact that I did not have one to hang!  




My Favorite Things Quilt {Fabric Tour}

Friday, March 10, 2023




When I received the new fabric line from Poppie Cotton, designed by Elea Lutz, so many emotions went through my mind.  The first thought is not related to this fabric line at all, so I'll tell you about that in a minute.   But my second thought was that this fabric was so unbelievably precious, I knew that I would be making a quilt.   Its a strange thing how fabric speaks... I'm not the only sewist that says this same thing.  I even had a quick vision in my head of old fashioned and simple quilt.  But we'll get to that in a minute.
