Thought I would show you what i am working on, I have saved this Flower Girl quilt kit from Bonnie and Camille for years and was fortunate to find it before the prices were crazy on it! FINALLY started it, I have 9 blocks done and just 11 more to go, saying I love it, would be an understatement!
Camille of Bonnie and Camille posted a flag quilt and everyone went crazy over it and she decided to write up a quick pattern for it, I jumped on the band wagon and sewed up my top, pretty darn fast I must say! I am going to piece all the colors from the front to make the backing, my sweet friend Di, who is my biggest encourager and enabler when it comes to quilting :) she gave me the idea :) love ya, Di!
I have always loved the cathedral window block, it has ALWAYS intimidated me terribly until Missouri Quilt Co came up with a tutorial to simplify it, its totally doable and uses a lot of fabric BUT the outcome is amazing! this one will just be a throw size, but I am anxious to work on it! If you would like to see the tutorial, go Missouri Quilt Co Cathedral Window Tutorial
I have so many WIPs, its not even funny. I also am starting another quilt with my friend Diane, and then my friend Di, made an amazing black/white/creme/red quilt and I need to copy it, pronto! it will help me step into the more modern side of quilting :) Plus she is dragging me into learning how to do English Paper Piecing (EPP) YES I have several friends (and a sis) named Diane or Diana or Dianne :)
so I will share those new quilts next time and also show some orders that I have done recently and talk about my little sewing business soon.
hugs!
