Looks good enough to eat? – Lasagna Quilt
I’m still here – it’s been a crazy couple of weeks around the Chittum household. Job changes (longer, explanatory blog post to come on that one), yearbook final deadlines, newspaper deadlines, convention travels, you name it. In the midst of … Continue reading
Yet another use for math in quilting
My project for this weekend is this Sudoku quilt kit by Moda Fabrics. Mom picked up a couple of the kits, and she thought it would be a good, fairly quick and easy project for me. She was right. I … Continue reading

Work in Progress Wednesday
I’ve got a couple of works in progress. I’ve put the log cabin blanket aside for just a bit. It’s hibernating for now, until I decide whether or not I want to try to buy more coordinating yarn to make … Continue reading
Mini Milestones and Mini Quilts
Yesterday I accomplished two things I’ve never done before regarding my Singer Slant-O-Matic Sewing Machine. Who knows how long the machine had set unused before we had it serviced when my grandma passed away. I remember it being used every … Continue reading
