are becoming very good friends. I decided this past week-end to make up kits and then when the mood strikes, I can just sit and sew the quilt tops together. If I have enough fabric I throw that in for the backings and bindings.
I already had two panels packaged up, so I only had to make up the patterns, run them off, find the fabrics and start cutting.
This kit is a joint effort. Lindley very kindly gave me the orange fabric and it will work great with the jungle print called Safari Swank. It's a simple pattern that will work up quickly. There is enough in the bag for the backing.
I found left-overs from bindings, so I cut them 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" and designed this quilt. The blocks will not be all the same. They are all blues and greys and great fabric for the white area.
Those red squares are left-overs I've had for years. I counted them up, designed this quilt and when I feel like sewing a lap quilt, I will get it done. I did buy the cream and the backing brand new and I can't decide if this will be donated or it's a keeper. Time will tell.
Grey fabric!! Who knew I had so much. I won't after this quilt and another one.
Zoometrics!! I like this fabric and could not tell you why. It caught my eye and I have the pantograph all ready selected. It will keep the theme going! That's all I'm saying
The same green fabric but with more Safari Swank. Boy I hope kids like animals, cause I'm on a roll with them.
I've been knitting and I had to incorporate a heart. One thing always leads to another......
It's being done in greys and blues. I don't possess pinks! I'll have to look for other colours. Maybe whites with a different coloured background. We'll see
I looked in a box for something and found a stack of 6 1/2" squares. I guess I had great plans for them but couldn't remember what. I knew I had a good pattern so I went in search of it. This is called Gettysburg Quilt Pattern and it's available from the
Fat Quarter Shop. I like the clean crisp lines of this but when I make it I'm changing the name.
Now to start to sew..................
