About

Hi, i’m Christina, the person behind Sometimes Crafter Studio. I run my small business from my studio on our property in rural SW Washington. I am an author, pattern writer, illustrator and longarm quilter. I homeschool my son on our small homestead and spend time canning our harvest, foraging from our woods and working around the property when I’m not in the studio.

Making a notepad! I posted a video with brief explanation on how I make notepads for myself (super short video). It's over with all my printable on my Patreon (all free downloads). #notepadmaking #notepad #printable #freeprintable

April's printable is now available! I created an embroidery themed printable note for this month. It's free to download! There are 6 little notes per page with instructions for cutting out. I tried to make it as easy as possible! Use these as individual notes, or print a bunch and glue them together to create a notepad. I already created several for myself to make all my to-do lists on. #printable #notepad #freeprintable #embroidery #embroideryart

Working on a custom for @gin4g2013 She requested thread to match the fabric so I had to come up with designs that stayed in the blue for this block. It's an 8" block, not very big, so I didn't want to have too dense of quilting or too much over stitching, but I wanted enough quilting to hold everything in place over the years of use. This was the toughest block in the Deco quilt to come up with a design for that fit the theme, but all of my other requirements as well. I'm loving how it turn out! #decoquilt #longarmquilting #longarmquilter #customquilting

Chain piecing HSTs without lines. I have a template under the pieces I follow as I stitch to keep it lined up. So much quicker. It's called The Angler 2, but I'm not finding it, so I linked to another just like it in under my recommendations on my website. #quiltingtools #quiltmaking #quilt #sewing

Pulled out an old WIP. I need a quilt for my studio chair for when Hazel comes out with me, and I need to get the guilt of this project just sitting there off my back. I think this line was by Sandi Henderson, and I think it was called Farmers Market...or Ginger Blossom...? I remember it was a favorite at the time and my grandma got me the whole fat quarter set for Christmas. It came with the cutest basket to hold everything. I still have that, too! I was originally going to make a zig zag quilt with it, they were super pipular at the time. I didn't want to square all of these, I think that's why I stalled. I'm not going to square them, this project doesn't need to be perfectly square. #quilt #wip #sandihenderson #quiltersofinstagram

April's quilting special is here! Bees, moons, clouds and vines - hopefully something for everyone to choose from. All the information is in the slides, but be sure to let me know if you have questions. #longarmquilter #longarmquiltersofinstagram #longarmquilting #longarmquiltingservices #longarm #edgetoedgequilting

A small baby quilt went on the frame yesterday. We chose the design Blue Moon and it is the perfect density for a cuddly baby quilt. This is quilted with my favorite Quilters Dream bamboo batting, which gives quilts the best drape.

Midnight Moons for @lilstaroftexas_makes quilt! I wanted to get some video of it stitching out yesterday, but it was so dark and dreary here (more so than usual), so we'll settle for an after stitching video instead. I love this design! This is one of Marches quilting specials, I have the post pinned with all the details (and other designs).
