L'Amour

The end of a long imprisonment.

Fabric jailed away for years waiting.

Waiting for the moment when it finally gets center stage.

And something happens in minutes! 

Okay, maybe hours. 

But it seems so much happier now.

One honeybun of L'Amour by Sandy Gervais for Moda. One wire wreath. Valentine rag wreath.

Love the texture and colors. And it even says love on it. 

In the shop. 

Christmas Spirit and a little Whimsy

Also finished this little runner in Christmas Spirit by Holly Taylor for Moda.

It's a very beautiful and traditional Christmas fabric line.

I tried out the technique for half square triangles here.

Up close.

Binding is the dark brown Moda Marbles.

I also finished these little beauties. 

Both in the shop.

Curio

I have a LONG list of various quilting things I'd like to try. 

Call it my fabric "bucket list" if you will.

On it? 

A tumbler quilt... among other things.

One day I should make a list.

But I might get intimidated by the length of it and give up. 

Yes, so back to the tumbler quilt. 

A little something in Curio. 

This one is from a single charm pack - super quick and super easy.

Two charm packs and you've got a quick and easy baby quilt.

I feel my brain saying, "hint, hint."

Note to self: put this one in the arsenal.

Go figure, I have ANOTHER baby shower to go to this week. 

What is with the babies?!?! 

It's fair, I get to squish their little cheeks later... :)

I love the mix of colors and the texture in the prints. 

BasicGrey has such a way with these... 

A little loopy quilting and voila! 

In the shop! 

Leftovers on the Table

Leftovers in the form of fabric of course!

Flora by Lauren and Jessi Jung for Moda even.

A close up of the pretty fabrics.

This line is sooooo dang cheerful!

Lots of straight quilting.

Oh, and this could be your mailbox... 

Hahahaha! 

I laugh at my own jokes. 

Yes, I am that person.

In my defense, my husband doesn't laugh at my jokes. 

No matter how funny! 

He just says, "Mmm, that's funny."

It's in the shop.

Modern Swirly Pillows

Okay, still a pathetic title.
But I have brain fog.
I got the boy's ear infections too.
Not complaining though because it means that dad has to take care of me and the kiddos and I get to sew. HAHAHAHA!
So, where was I?
Oh yes, those pillows.
Made these out of scraps from this quilt.
Swirly quilting and straight quilting.
Very fun, modern, and cheerful.

In the shop.
