    The colours are lovely - but it looks difficult! Well done for having your quilt recognised by modern day quilts!

wish list #1

Image
I have been doing a little sewing lately, but I would like to be doing a lot of sewing.  There are so many fabrics, notions, books, etc. so I am thinking about adding a weekly (monthly, bi-weekly?) feature of things that I would love to add to my own personal stash.  This will include products from my sponsors, but also products out there that I would just really love to have. To be honest, I think this idea kind of evolved from conversations I have had with my husband about what we would do if we won the Powerball.  Clearly I would buy a lot of fabric ;) The #1 print I would love to add to my stash right now is . . . Buck Forest Twilight by Bonnie Christine for Art Gallery Fabrics.  I loved this print in the original colorways and now it is available in navy.  NAVY.  Love it. Speaking of amazing blue fabrics . . . Grid Diamond Navy from Carkai by Carolyn Friedlander.   Can you tell I am really loving blues?  This is my favorite print from Carka...

blogger bundles

If you haven't already checked it out, Alyce over at Blossom Heart Quilts is hosting a blogger bundle competition with Randi at Fresh Squeezed Fabrics .  I think these kinds of competitions are SO MUCH FUN.  As much as I enjoy all aspects (or at least most aspects) of making a quilt, picking out fabrics is definitely the best part. I wanted to make a mosaic using some of my favorite prints right now.  I knew that I wanted to use the Cosmo Cricket text print ; I love that it has all of these positive words and phrases and it is such a pretty shade of pink.  I also wanted to use an Oh Deer print (because it is so cute!), this Madrona Road print (which I love but I haven't been able to justify buying), and then some coordinating prints and a  solid . I am calling my mosaic Sunshine Road because I love all of the happy colors and words.  I am trying to focus more on the positive things in life and this group of fabrics feels very positive to me :)

Wish List #2

I am back with another list of things that I would love to have if I had infinite time, space, and money.  There are a few things from my awesome sponsors and a few things I have just seen around.  What is on your wish list these days? 1.  A sewing machine for my daughter.  She is turning 8 next month and is interested in learning to sew, but I don't really want her learning on my machine.  Do you have any recommendations?  I am thinking about this Janome Hello Kitty machine . 2.  A Nikon d500 .  For the past few years I have been using my beloved Nikon d7000.  It has served me well, but the d500 will take better photos in low light, it has a tilting touchscreen, and can automatically transfer photos to your phone.     3.  Some yardage of this Vintage Picnic Extra Wide print in Navy .  This would work with so many color combos, it is so cute, and it is 108" wide so you wouldn't have to piece together your backing fabric. ...
