I spent some time this week working on a new project. Our order for Kona Ash Gray was finally filled so I figured I would take advantage of a couple of yards. I decided on this quilt pattern from Cluck.Cluck.Sew called Chain Reaction.
I’m using all of the Art Gallery fabrics that we have in stock for a modern, scrappy feel. I like it so far!
Not only did the Kona Ash arrive, but also several new patterns, including Who’s Place Owl Place Mats.
And On A Whim by Thimble Blossoms.
The Riley Blake Chevron‘s arrived in the shop but have literally flown off the shelf! We have a couple of the 1/2 yard bundles left until the new bolts arrive.
It’s supposed to be nice here this weekend, so I’m betting my patio will be calling my name for a couple of days. Hopefully, more progress next week on the Chain Reaction. Enjoy your weekend everyone!
Where have I been? On my patio of course! It’s been in the 80’s in Chicago and I’m certainly taking advantage. I’m being very lazy! It’s hard to focus on working in the studio right now. The birds are singing, flowers are blooming. I’ve had my air on for about a week now. Is that crazy or what? It’s March!
I do already have unwanted guests though…mosquitoes. I have 5 bite marks on my feet from eating dinner outside the other evening. I kept swatting at bugs thinking they must be gnats because there’s no way mosquitoes would be out this early. Boy, was I wrong. They even got me through my socks! I’m afraid they’re going to be so big this year, they’ll be able to carry us away.
We did start a new quilt this past Sunday called Sassafras by Thimble Blossoms. It’s a new pattern we got into the shop last week. It takes a jelly roll but we decided to use some scraps and fat quarters with a lot of Kaffe fabrics. I’m very excited to see how this one turns out.
We also have this spring cutie called Wonky Little Houses Pillow Pattern.
And some new bolts from Art Gallery.
Delicate Duet Plum & Rhythmic Lilac from the Poetica Line.
And a couple of fun prints called Retro Harmony in Sugar & Cocoa.
BackYard Baby Kit is also available now. Kit includes everything needed to complete the entire quilt except your batting, including a FREE pattern. Quilt measures 40″ x 40″ and is only $32.99.
All of these are available on Etsy. Enjoy your weekend everyone!
The newest Oval Elements from Art Gallery arrived this week!
Smoke, Mist, Mustard, Vintage Blue, Parfait Pink & Beaujolais Wine. We Have almost the entire collection available in our shop. We can do any yardage or grouping you’d like. Give us a convo and we’d be happy to help you!
Also arriving were a few from the Poetica collection from Art Gallery.
Love this one!
Were expecting more in a couple of weeks so keep checking back with us.
I worked on a sample this week from the Hot Who! Hot Pads pattern and used this fabric for the body. These were simple and I completed them in an afternoon.
Next weeks to-do’s include baby shoes, cutting a quilt out and a bit of embroidery. But for now, I’m going to relax and pour over my latest issue of Mollie Makes.
Have a great weekend!
As promised a little show ‘n’ tell of what I’ve been busy with this week. This quilt only took me a about an hour to get together and it turned out just adorable for a little boy.I made it from the Hootie & Friends pattern that we have but left off the applique. Super easy!
I added an orange flange to separate the charm squares and keep the outer border from blending in and I’m going to use the same fabric for the binding. I do believe it adds just the right amount of pop to the quilt. Isn’t that border fabric just the cutest? I can’t wait till Paige gets it quilted so I can show you the finished quilt. We’ll be taking these kits with us to the Pride of the Prairie Quilt Show in March.
I spent some time with Shelley over at Elsie’s Girl this week and worked on a couple of pot holder samples from this pattern.
Very fast, easy and turned out pretty darn cute!
Oval Elements & Bespoken from Art Gallery, Secret Garden and a new fabric from Blend stacked to make a warm and fun bundle. Half yard bundle was $22.13, now 15% off $18.81.
Bolts from the new company Blend arrived in the shop. Ric Rac’s from Kitchy Kitchen. I don’t think I’ve ever felt such soft cotton before. I love this company and they’re quality!
And this bundle called Calypso. I’m lovin’ these stripes!
All of these are available in the Etsy shop!
Snips and snails and puppy dog tails. That’s what little boys are made of! At least mine was. I think I’ve mentioned before that Russell had a tub of toy snakes, worms, beetles, and critters. He would take them outside, play with them in the dirt or arrange them in the house.
This new line from Michael Miller reminds me of those times long ago when the creepy critters, which he called “buggas”, kept him entertained. Now it’s girls, hanging with friends and video games…oh, the teenage years. It was so much easier when he brought bugs home:)
The bug jars are my fave from this line.
I’m also loving this cute ant maze. We tried that once. Didn’t end well for the ants.
This one is backordered and I can’t wait to get it in. Look for it to come in a couple of weeks, called Windy Day.
Patterns also arrived this week. Several from Bee In My Bonnet, Lori Holt.
And these from Cluck, Cluck Sew.
All of these and much more are on SewModDesigns & Etsy. More pics and patterns are available on FaceBook if you’d like a peek. And don’t forget, today is the last day to sign up for the giveaway. Tell all your friends!
Have a great weekend!
Grab a spoon & let’s have some sherbert. Some Lemon, lime & orange sherbert. Ok, it’s really melon, but that’s what I think of when I look at these fabrics so I’m going with it:)
This stack was $33.01, now $28.06 at Etsy & SewModDesigns.
Want a second helping? I went through my fave’s on Etsy and scooped these out. Lemon, Lime and Orange sweetness.
