I usually quilt my quilts myself, but when I finished the top for a special quilt that’s been in the works for about a year, I knew I needed a pro to add a special touch! I brought the quilt to Kristen at @mashemodern and was able to pick it up a few weeks ago! (And yes, her store is the cutest, so I needed to ogle some fabric while I was there.) 😍

Kristen did such a fantastic job — we used the Midnight Sparkles pantograph and a bright yellow thread. 🧵 💛

Full reveal of the quilt coming soon — and the pattern later this summer!

For weeks, our cat has disappeared for hours and we’ve been unable to find him. Turns out, he’s been sleeping on top of my roll of batting. 😂 Seems like such a cozy spot — I guess this batting belongs to him now.

I'd love to have a bobbin that never runs out -- I realize I'm sewing with no bobbin thread more than I'd like to admit! 😂
