The Carol Quilt

Image
The Carol Quilt has been tested and is now available for purchase on  Craftsy  or  Etsy . Happy Friday!  We are just wrapping up Spring Break at our house and it has been a long week.  I love my children dearly but they are driving me crazy. This quilt is actually going to go to one of my son's kindergarten teachers.  She is wonderful; I love how much she appreciates my son's personality and has helped him to learn and grow. I came up with the idea for the quilt after ordering some of Heather Ross' Tiger Lily fabric (I ordered mine  here ) to use as a quilt backing.  I love this print - the colors, the flowers, everything.  It is so sweet. This color scheme was fun to work with but is a little out of my comfort zone.  I love pink and orange, but am not big on yellow or green, but together I really like the color combo.   The binding is one of my all time favorite prints - Chicopee simple plaid.  I have gone through so much of i...

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...

Wish List #2

Image
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. ...
