Oh boy! I've got Joy!

"I do. I do.

It starts in my heart and spreads to my head in a minute or two... "

I don't know how many of you will get the reference.

I was in "Joy School" as a little kid.

It was a home school type preschool program and that was the theme song.

I can still sing the entire thing.

Good brainwashing.

Still, I've been singing it to myself the whole time I've been working on this quilt. o_O

The fabric line is "Joy" by Kate Spain for Moda.

Zigzag binding.

Oh, love.

Christmas trees on white for backing.

Anyone else like the back of the quilt to hide the quilting? 

Am I odd?

In regards to this. 

Obviously I'm "odd" in other ways. 

Have you seen all the granny squares in blogland these days?

And the great granny quilt-a-long? 

I'm thinking of joining. 

These blocks are sooooooo fun to make.

In the shop.

A Stitch in Color

I don't know how many of you are readers of Malka Dubrawsky's blog, but I've been enjoying for quite a while. 

Long before she ever was designing fabric for Moda. 

So, I was thrilled to get my hands on her first line, A Stitch in Color, and have some fun with it! 

I also took my inspiration for the quilting directly from some of her quilting projects and wow, that was fun.

It made me want to quilt like that all the time. 

A little nature to match!

Maybe you can see my quilting better in this one? 

Oh, and the backing. 

It looks like another quilt. 

It's the cheater fabric in the line - the "panel" of sorts. 

It ended up at 37" x 42" and is in the shop.
