Few Words About Patchwork Patterns
Patchwork, as clear from the name, refers to a technique that includes sewing several small fabrics to create large geometric designs. It includesmixed patterns, textures, and colors that make up an exceptional piece. Traditionally, a wide number of needlework was required to developincomparable patchwork patterns for quilts. However, in today’s time, such quilting patterns have become a highly popular technique in theclothing industry.
When coming up with an exclusively stitched quilt, the patchwork is the topmost layer, and the batting and backing form the middle as well as bottom layers, respectively. Either a machine or hand is used for stitching the outline. Finally, an exclusively designed quilt serves to be the product ready to be sold and used.

With a busy bee of a toddler running around at all times, books and coloring are so important to have accessible when it’s time for some down time.
Redfin reached out to us and asked to write a short piece describing an at home learning area that would work well.
You can read the full article here but I thought it would make a fun post to show you the little nook my toddler has for all his fun activities.
When it comes to at home learning or activity areas it’s so important to have everything open and easily accessible because I feel like it makes less of a mess. That way your kids will see it automatically and be able to grab what they need.
I love using little bins for crayons, art stuff and activity books. I use this cute personalized basket for my toddler’s things.
Another great tip is storage cubes! I feel like they are so great for toy organizing, book organizing or even learning and school organizing.
Adding pops of colors with books and crayons are always great to keep your kids engaged.
I like to keep our seasonal or favorite books on this bench ottoman and a couple inside it as well for easy reading access since majority of our time is spent in our main living area.
Also it’s a great place to store toys away and still have your living space look nice!
So many fun ideas you can do for a little learning nook but these are some of my favorites!
What type of areas do you have for your children when it comes to their learning and activities?
AD- This is an advertise in collaboration with Photowall Sweden with a free product. All opinions are our own.
One of my favorite things is new decor pieces. I get so excited to add a new piece to my home.
Homemaking and keeping a tidy cute home is something I strive for and I have been slowly remodeling and freshening our spaces so when @photowall_sweden reached out to me about their products I was so excited!
I picked up this new beautiful hallway table that I am in love with and I was searching for a great piece that would go along the back of it.
Photowall has so many unique pieces and canvas photo’s are defiantly one of my favorite things to decorate with.
I picked this unique world map that I think the colors went perfect with everything. It wasn’t too bright or too dull and it went so well with this space.
I even have enough room for all my fall touches now that we are getting into the Holiday seasons.
It shipped quickly and came packaged very nicely.
You do have to assemble the mounting yourself but they have a very easy video tutorial to help you with each step.
I am not handy and I was surprised how easy it was to follow.
I love how everything turned out and I definitely want to purchase more from them!
Plus who else is so excited for seasonal decor!?
Stop back soon for a Fall home tour!

Living in a renovation is not fun, even if it is just our kitchen. You have so many things scattered everywhere and I like order so it’s super hard for me!
Everything is coming together so beautifully though and I can’t wait to show you. First that went in were the countertops and new sink. We chose quartz countertops because they were honestly the only ones that went with the look I was trying to go for.
Bonus though? SOOO easy to clean! Holy cow are they easy to clean. I am still trying to find a cleaner that doesn’t leave streaks though so if you know of one, please let me know in the comments! It’s number 1 on my list to buy so I would appreciate it.
It’s hard to tell in the pictures but they have a gray detail going all across the countertops to tie in the cabinets and I love it. Looks so good.
Once the countertops and sink were in, our flooring ended up going in next since the backsplash was the easiest to get done.
I am OBSESSED with our floors. I can’t wait until we can get them all throughout the living room because I just love them. They are sturdy and look stunning. We went with a hardwood vinyl type of flooring and you honestly couldn’t even tell the difference.
I love the contrast of the dark to light. The dark floors with the light walls and cabinets and counter area, it went really good together so I am glad we chose a darker color.
We are so close to the finish line and I can’t wait to share with you all the final project all done and looking fabulous!
Thanks for staying on this journey with me, be sure to check out the previous links to see what everything looked like before.
What a difference paint makes you guys! So crazy how open it can make a smaller kitchen look.
If you haven’t noticed we have been absent on here for a couple weeks!
Life has been so busy with renovations around our house and then Marissa’s girls are starting sports. A break was much needed but we are excited to be back and to bring on all the content!
Any-who, back to kitchen updates. If you haven’t read my Kitchen Remodel Inspiration post make sure you do because I am pretty sure I nailed it on the cabinet colors!
So we went with a gray finish for the cabinets and then white walls and a gray accent wall.
The painters did such a great job and I am so excited to see everything come together!
Here’s some before and afters for you all
Those are the before pictures, our house was a lot of tans and warm colors for the kitchen and back entry way but here is what it looks like after the paint!
What do you guys think!? Such a transformation already right?
We have the counter tops ordered but those take about 4-5 weeks so in between waiting for that our flooring will be installed.
Next post it will look completely different again I’m sure and I am so excited about it!!
I can’t even tell you all how excited I am to FINALLY remodel our kitchen!
It’s been a dream since we moved in about 5 years ago. Like everyone else this year I’m sure, we fought with the idea of selling our home or making it into what we want for a few more years.
I don’t know if it’s the “first home” attachment or if it was because I couldn’t find anything else I for sure wanted out there or a little of both but we decided to stay.
And with staying comes…renovations!!
I’m excited but a little scared because we’ve never done renovations before besides our basement but that was just flooring.
I decided I would take you all along with me in the renovation journey which this year will include our kitchen and entry way and then flooring in the living room.
Kitchen is up first and the biggest task by far so here is a peek into what we are working with and the inspiration for the renovations.
So mainly we will be updating countertops and backsplash. Only painting cabinets because I LOVE my cabinets and getting new hardware for them, and then getting new flooring.
A big task ya’ll! But here’s our inspiration for the finished look.
Subway tile backsplash Farmhouse sink hopefullyGray cabinet color Hardwood flooring and a light countertop
Anyone else have a dream of a farmhouse sink!? I hope one can fit for us!
My hubby is so excited about a subway tile backsplash, he loves it.
So excited to take you along with this renovation journey. Plus, I will be showing any DIY’s that happen of course.
I know anything to make life a little more simple and easy as a mom is a must so definitely will be sharing any tips and tricks.
We are in the process of getting estimates and picking exactly what we want right now so stay tuned my friends!
