I can’t believe it’s been more than two years since I wrote a post. Where have you been you wonder? I’ve been to work. I was a mom at home for more than 6 years. With both kids at school, it was time to go back. I’m not working full time for now (about 25 […]
One year ago, the Montreal Modern Quilt Guild went to visit the Guido Molinari Foundation. As I mentioned in this post, this lead to a challenge to all members to create a quilt inspired by the work of this Montreal artist. In April I presented my plan, today I want to share with you the finished quilt. It was […]
Most of us now read blogs trough readers like Bloglovin. But, I’ve made a few changes to my blog in the past year. So today, I invite you to come and have a look. One of them was to add galleries. You can now have a look at the different pictures I posted on Flickr. […]
Back in April, I ordered some fabrics from Mad About Patchwork to make my-self a bag. I ended-up making much more with it. I finished the bag it-self last week, so let me share all those projects with you. For the bag, I got the pattern Wrapsody handbag by Studio Kat Design. For the exterior fabric, I […]
Earlier this year, I read Sherri Lynn Wood‘s book: Improv Handbook for Modern Quilters. I heard so much good about her and her approach to improvisational piecing, I thought it was about time I give it a try. I did participate in an Improv Round Robin last year at the meetup between the Montreal and Ottawa MQG. […]

Last month, the Montreal Modern Quilt Guild had visit from Libs Elliot for a workshop. I really love her work. It is really unique. I like her approach, particularly how she uses programming to generate quilt patterns and how she introduces randomness in her quilts. It was great to meet her in person. We had such a great […]
Back in November, the Montreal Modern Quilt Guild organized a visit to the Guido Molinari Foundation. Guido Molinari was a renowned abstract painter from Montreal. He died in 2004. But, his gallery is still open to the public. Before his death, he created a fondation to continue perpetuating his art and abstract painting in general. Our group […]
Today, I though I’d share a few small projects I didn’t take the time to share in the past months. First, I made two placemats before Chritmas for each of my sons teacher. My sons helped me chose the patterns and fabrics. I had proposed a few paper-piecing patterns. One chose the Lil’ Fox by Sonja […]

It’s named Metamorphosis and I made this one to represent the minimalist category in the show. I already mentioned this quilt here as I was design it last year. See this […]
