I’m working away behind the scenes to finish up my latest batch of hand dyed quilted goodies. They are all one of a kind, so be sure to join my email list so you don’t miss out! In the mean time, I thought I’d tell you about my quilt coat!

My last post was about the first quilt coat I made when things were on pause here in NYC last year. I really loved the first one, but there were a few tweaks that I wanted to make.

I changed the shape of the underarm seam, removed a seam from the sleeves and added a seam to the center back.

For the quilting, I tried hand tying, which I hadn’t done before. I decided to place the knots on the inside of the coat, so as not to make the outside look too busy.

I am totally in love with this coat! It is so warm and cozy and basically feels like wearing a quilt all day long.

hand quilted version of the quilt pattern I designed last year

***I’ve moved! Come visit me over at my new blog and online store!***

I’m catching up on blogging a bunch of things from the past few years. One of them is this mini quilt that I made last year, using a pattern that I designed. I wanted something that wasn’t overly complicated (it’s all rectangles), but that still had an interesting pattern.

I decided to hand quilt it, because I was working on it during the shutdown here in NYC last March, so I was in no hurry to finish.

I love the texture that the hand quilting adds to both the front and the back!

Once I went back to work I kind of put this pattern on the back burner, but I’m thinking I should finish it up and add it to my store. This version is a good size for a wall hanging or a baby quilt, but I will also include a larger version for a throw or twin sized quilt.
