I wanted to see what these wovens were like. They’re a bit outside my realm of comfort, but as I’ve entered into the world of texture, they had me curious.
All the fabrics so far in this post are from Heather Ross’ 20th Anniversary line, and you can find them in stores now. I’m going to these that plus some fabric from her other lines to sew a Checkered Garden Quilt for my 3 year old.
Hey friends, here’s a little bit of beautifulness I just ran across today. I’m tempted. So very tempted.
What is my favorite part of quilting? The answer may surprise you. The actual making of the quilts is not my favorite part. Is that strange? I don’t necessarily mind sewing (I actually do absolutely love hand quilting though), but a project never goes by without some sort of frustration.
I went on a hunt the other day to find some jersey knit fabric. I wanted some small cuts of jersey fabric to make some headbands for our new baby girl. This search turned out to be much more difficult than I had anticipated. I didn’t find many fabric stores dedicated to a good variety of jersey fabrics.
Many times when I purchase new fabrics, I have projects in mind, but the fabrics must wait in line until its turn. (Sometimes the fabrics must wait years. 🙂 )
If you are looking for a quilt to snuggle or a quilt that’s warm to the touch as soon as you pick it up, this is it.
It’s soft, cozy, fluffy, and warm.
There is only so much time in a day to spend sewing, and I can’t make ALL the quilts my mind dreams up over the course of a day. I’ve been gawking at this Harriot Yarn Died plaid and this Harriot Yarn Died plaid for over a week now, but I haven’t purchased either. Yet I want to buy a yard of each. I’m sure they’d fit into many a perfect project.
I have this little blue pouch that I’ve carried around for approximately the last two years. It contains my green thimble, a little pair of Fiskars scissions, Pearle Thread, and hand quilting needles.
Well. I lost it.
Yes indeed I ordered Christmas fabric. I think it’s beautiful, and I have high hopes of making a Christmas quilt this week.
