At the end of 2022 I received an offer from Art Quilting Studio magazine. The managing Editor asked me to write an article about my fairytale fabric postcards. I agreed, but Instead of a series of fall postcards I decided to make four postcards dedicated to spring.

Every two years our Guild has a quilt show. Because of COVID we missed 2020 show, that is why the 2022 show was very important for all Guild members. I also decided to participate, but unfortunately didn’t have new quilts. So I ended up with my challenge quilt “Time Machine” and my two miniatures. The first one has to be juried and I was happy to know that my “Time Machine” quilt got three ribbons: 2022 Best Overall Workmanship, NACQJ (National Asosociation of Certified Quilt Judges) Ribbon and first place in Innovative/Contemporary.

About two weeks ago my Russian friend asked me to make a presentation about quilted postcards. I was happy to share my miniature quilts with other quilters. The main idea of my presentation was about inspiration. What can inspire us to make a quilt even if it’s tiny. Fall is coming, so it’s time to think about long winter and cozy stuff, isn’t it? So, I made a small collection of fall themed quilted postcards.

I’m so excited! It is the second time in my life my quilt is on the cover of the quilt magazine. My quilt, “Harvest Time” was published in Quick and Easy Quilts magazine and on August 30th, 2022, the print issue will be available on newsstands. Thank you @Quiltingdaily and @Fonsandporter for this opportunity.

This is my second table runner design with jars and this time I decided to mix them with pumpkin blocks. This pattern is ideal for those who love traditional piecing.

So happy to announce that my miniature quilt “Woodland Meadow” got an honorable mention at the American Quilter’s Society quilt show in Paducah, Kentucky.

This cute table runner from scraps. I usually have a lot and every time I try to reduce them as much as possible. Many years ago I fell in love with this shabby chic collection and made four baby blankets plus a crib bumper.

Spring time is the most magical time in California. It’s a time when the brown and gray landscape transforms into lush green hills with islands of yellow, orange and purple wildflowers.

Do you know why I love patchwork? Every scrap piece can become a quilt. I had some left over pieces from the previous quilt and started to think about how I can use them. I sewed some blocks, added applique flowers, quilted the whole piece and ta-da! The table runner is done! I like how my scraps turned out, so I decided to make a new step-by-step tutorial.

Do you know why I love Fall? It’s the time when rains come, on cozy evenings you can sit under a warm quilt and the time when you can decorate your house with fall decor.

Thanksgiving is coming, so it’s time to prepare a house to this fall holiday. Pumpkin table runner can become one of the important accents in your kitchen decor. Easy, 9 page step by step pdf-pattern with full size applique pattern, will help you to sew this cute table tunner.

Easter is coming and at the end of February I started to think about spring and any associations with this time of year.

I’m excited to present you my new pdf-pattern “Honey”. All little blocks have small jars full of sweet honey. Each of them has its own letter and only the letter “O” is presented by a little bee. It’s cute, isn’t it?

In the beginning of the year I decided to spend more time creating new designs, and a month later I released my new pdf-pattern “Honey Bee”.
