sewing all the things
Do you remember the fabric line ShangriLa?
It is one of my favouritest fabric lines. I saved a jelly roll and some yardage. Not nearly enough that I should have saved. Note I said saved and not hoarded ;)
I started a quilt about 3yrs ago with this line. I posted about it here. Somewhere alone making the blocks, I made a mistake and the white prints were no longer long enough to continue with the star log cabin blocks. So I got frustrated and shoved it all in a cupboard.
Bring in quarantine and lets sew all the things. The time was now to figure out what to do with this.
The answer was easier than I expected.
I had six finished star blocks and two almost finished.
I had enough fabric to make up the last two blocks and ta-da.
And with the remaining blocks,
I'm still undecided if I'll add a border to either.
I might have enough of the cream print. Will have to think about it.
I also started on a Christmas quilt I had planning to have finished for Christmas 2019.
Looks like it will be a go for Christmas 2020.
quilt monday
I ended up taking a week off work without planning on taking a week off work.
During that week, I got a whack of quilt tops finished and some new quilts started. I wanted to sew all the things!
One of those finished quilts was this one.
This quilt, I loves it.
I actually hadn't planned on this pattern for these fabrics. But I chickened out on the other quilt lol.
I wanted to keep the quilting flowy so I used the panto Popcorn.
I used a fun flannel for the backing and a matching pink for the binding.
This was a very quick pattern to do.
I'm already thinking of another version in shades of blues
Happy Monday!
