I have just finished making my quilt, and it is my first completed creation of 2018!
I started making the quilt around October, and took a month or two break to work on craft fairs, but I finally finished last week. It is able to fit on a queen sized bed, and is super comfy and colorful!
Recently, I have been inspired by the mountains, flowers, snow, and anything related to nature. So I have decided to make a wilderness themed quilt that includes fabric patterns of bears, trees, leaves, and nature colors.
To really make my quilt unique, I had some of my photos I took on hiking/ski trips printed on fabric and sewed them on the quilt. A few examples of pictures I have included were the mountains at Vail, a fox sighting, more mountains and flowers!
Making this quilt was a challenge and very detailed, but it was fun. I am still not perfect at quilting, but I definitely feel like I made something very unique and meaningful for myself. Even though I notice all the quirks, I am really proud of what I made!

Hello! My name is Julie, I am very crafty and I love to quilt! I currently live in Denver, Colorado, but I was born and grew up in Virginia. My sewing journey began in 2009 where I started making handbags and I have participated in several craft shows/markets in Virginia and Colorado.
I began quilting in 2020, and since then quilting has been my main focus. I have made several quilts from modern, improve, lap quilts to mini quilts. In 2023 I became a member of the Denver Metro Quilt Guild. Besides sewing, in my spare time I love to weave, take photos, bake, hike, ski, attend craft/art shows, and spend time with my husband and my dog Lilly. My blog mostly focuses on my creations and inspirations, but once and awhile, I will blog about my trips and travel adventures. My goal is to share and inspire everyone who is reading. Enjoy!
