This butterfly quilt will always be one of my favorites 🦋
I quilted this beauty for Vanessa a few years ago, and wow… the negative space on this quilt was such a gift.
Instead of fighting it, I let the quilt tell me what it wanted.

Point-to-point lines turned into a secondary diamond design in the background, and each butterfly got its own moment with a mix of free-motion quilting and ruler work.

I love how all of those little decisions came together in the end.
Planning, a bit of marking, trusting the process… and just quilting. 💛

I share my entire process for this quilt inside the Piece N Quilt Academy—from how I planned it out, to how I marked it, to exactly how I quilted it.
And when you join, you don’t get just one video… you get access to 200+ machine quilting videos.
We all start somewhere.

This fun quilt is actually one of my own—and it’s such a good reminder of why I love quilting so much. ✨
This is my Urban Cabin quilt, and the second I made it, I could see all the playful spaces just begging for creative quilting.
It’s honestly the perfect example of what I’ll be teaching in my upcoming Strip by Strip class—designs you can use in any size space, mix and match, stretch, shrink, and totally make your own. No rules. Just fun. 🙌
I also share my full process of quilting this quilt inside the Piece N Quilt Academy—from planning to stitching and everything in between. When you join, you don’t just get this one video… you get access to 200+ quilting videos packed with inspiration and real-time quilting you can watch (and rewatch!) anytime while you’re a member.
So much creativity, right at your fingertips.

This is my Joplin quilt, finished and off the frame 🤍

I’ve always loved the original colors of this pattern, but the real reason I chose to make this quilt was the negative space. All of that solid fabric was just begging for detailed, custom machine quilting. It felt like the perfect playground to really lean into design.

This quilt is a mix of lots of ruler quilting and free-motion quilting — building structure first, then layering in movement and texture. I slowed way down on this one and really let the quilting lead the way.
And yes… I know every time I share a quilt like this someone comments, “It must be so stiff.”

It’s really not. Dense quilting doesn’t mean a quilt can’t be soft or usable — it means intention, texture, and durability.

I share my full process for planning and quilting this fun quilt inside the Piece N Quilt Academy — from planning and spacing to combining ruler work and free-motion quilting so it all flows together.

I’ve learned something about myself…
I physically cannot quilt the same quilt twice the same way 😂
Even when it’s the exact same pattern, my brain is like,
✨ But what if we made it different though? ✨
These are two versions of the Farmer’s Star quilt—same quilt, totally different vibes.
One leans bold + geometric, the other is soft, flowing, and full of feathers.
Both beautiful. Both intentional. Both very much me.
Every quilt deserves its own personality, and I love letting the quilting tell a slightly different story every time.
And yes—I share my full quilting process for both of these quilts inside the Piece N Quilt Academy.
Think: standing in my studio, looking over my shoulder, watching how the design decisions unfold stitch by stitch.
If that sounds like your kind of learning… you know where to find me 💛

Christmas is just days away, and it’s always fun to look back through some of my favorite quilting memories. 🎄
Christmas quilts will always have my heart — they’re so fun to custom machine quilt, and I’ve definitely quilted my fair share over the years. This one is still a favorite: a mix of free-motion quilting and ruler work, feathers, background fillers, and wool batting to add that extra loft and texture I love.

I’ve shared my full process for quilts like this inside the Piece N Quilt Academy over the years — from planning the design to stitching it all out.

Strip 12… 13… 14… 15… 16 👀✨
Just a tiny peek at what’s coming in my brand-new FREE class, Strip by Strip.

For 99 consecutive days, I’ll be teaching you how to machine quilt 99 two-inch strips—one strip at a time. The goal? Not just inspiration… but real confidence using your machine quilting rulers.

We’ll be working with the Sway 3, Sway 4, Sway 5, Mini 4-N-1, and 4-N-1 rulers, exploring tons of motifs and ideas (not all of them… because honestly, the possibilities are endless). Then we layer in hand-guided free-motion quilting, and that’s where things get really fun.

I’ve already caught myself flipping through the companion design workbook just for inspiration… and yes, I’m fully obsessed. This class is going to be SO much fun.

✨ We all start somewhere.
✨ Pre-order the companion design workbook—you’ll absolutely want it.
✨ Class starts February 1, 2026

If you’re feeling excited (or a little nervous), remember this:

✨ There are options, not rules
✨ Give yourself permission to learn

We all start somewhere.
This class is your invitation to start exactly where you are—and grow from there.

My view!
I’m having so much fun quilting on this Double Wedding Ring quilt. Since this one is staying with me, I’m really slowing down and letting myself make it extra special. ✨

Of course, while I’m working on this quilt, I’m testing ideas, mixing rulers with free-motion, and letting the design evolve as I go. No rushing. No rules. Just enjoying the process and trusting my instincts.

This is one of those quilts where every pass of the machine feels good—and honestly, those are the best ones. If you love seeing the real, behind-the-scenes quilting decisions (the good, the bad, and the why did I do that moments 😅), I always share my full process in real time inside the PNQ Academy.

We all start somewhere… and sometimes the magic happens when you slow down and enjoy the view. 💕

If you’re anything like me, you’re a very visual learner.
I need to see it. Touch it. Flip through it. Sit with it.
(Which is probably why I love quilts so much.)

That’s exactly why we created a companion design workbook for my brand new FREE Strip-by-Strip class, starting February 1st.

This workbook has quickly become one of my favorite things to flip through for inspiration—and I know it’s going to be one of those “forever friends” in my quilting space.

Here’s what’s inside:
✨ The piecing pattern (if you want to make a quilt top just like the ones I’m quilting on)
✨ All 99+ strip designs, illustrated full-scale and full-color
✨ AND every single design includes a QR code that takes you straight to the video tutorial where I show you exactly how to quilt it

Yes… you can literally sit on your couch, flip through pages, get inspired, scan a code, and start quilting. Dreamy, right?

Pro tip: I like to take my workbooks to my local copy shop and have them spiral bound. It cost me about $5 and was 100% worth it. Highly recommend doing this with all your quilting books.

Want more inspiration (and all the details)?

✨ There are only 49 days until my brand new FREE class, Strip by Strip, officially begins… and I could not be more excited.

In this class, I’ll be teaching you 99+ ways to machine quilt a 2" strip using a mix of free-motion quilting and ruler quilting—from simple, confidence-building designs to more detailed, creative combinations that will seriously stretch your skills (in the best way).

And let’s talk about the companion design workbook for a second, because it’s a game-changer 🙌
Every single design is:
✔️ Full-color
✔️ Drawn to scale
✔️ Easy to follow
✔️ Paired with a QR code you can scan and instantly jump straight to the video tutorial

No searching. No guessing. Just quilt → scan → quilt some more.

✨ Bonus: If you enroll now, you don’t have to wait until February 1st to get started. There are already 10 bonus videos waiting for you inside the classroom dashboard, so you can log in today and start practicing, warming up, and getting inspired right now.

This class is all about confidence, creativity, and actually using your rulers—not letting them sit in a drawer.

👉 Comment “STRIP” below, and I’ll send you all the details so you can grab your spot and start stitching along with me.

We all start somewhere… and this is a really good place to start 💛
