New Friday Tutorial: The Baby Kisses Quilt

Babies are the best, which is why we’re so willing to overlook how gross they can be. Runny noses, smelly diapers, and mysteriously sticky fingers all fade away when your little munchkin snuggles up for a love. And there’s just nothing sweeter than baby kisses! A smooch from those teeny, chubby, kissy-lips is enough to cast a spell on anyone!

With a few snowballed corners, this new Baby Kisses Quilt is pretty, pint-sized, and perfect for wrapping up your little angel. Plus, it’s so easy to make!

New Friday Tutorial: The Sparkle Quilt

We live in a culture obsessed with youth. Everywhere I look I’m bombarded with advertisements to plump this, tuck that, camouflage, conceal, and reverse all signs of aging. But I’ve got a secret. Sometimes getting older is awesome. Super awesome.

I still remember the moment I discovered my first gray hair. I had been dreading that day my entire adult life, but as I stared at that colorless strand, I noticed how it sparkled in the sunlight. I kid you not, my hair was sparkling like a magical fairy princess! Sparkling!

I’ve yet to meet a person who doesn’t enjoy a good sparkle, and whether or not you’re a fan of silver hair, I know you’re going to fall head over heels for today’s new tutorial, the Sparkle Quilt! Here’s what you need to make this beautiful quilt!
