Toward the end of last month
my little sister came for a visit.
It was going to be her
birthday so I quickly
made a couple of
pillows for her, along with a
couple more for her
sofa using
Tula Pink Octopus fabric. (not shown)
We grew up at the beach,
so she decided
to decorate her new home
with a beachy feel.
I also put this quilt on the bed
in the guest room
for her... and let her take it
home with her
when
she left.
I love this quilt and especially the quilting on it.
Fortunately, I have more of the Going Coastal fabric
that I stashed away... so I am able to make
another Round and Round Quilt for myself to keep.
But the pattern I used for the pillows
has been on my to-do list
for quite a while!
I jumped on the band wagon for the
Sewing a Village quilt along
on Instagram.
It is a great way to use your left over fabrics!
I only have one roof made...
but it's coming together!
This was my original pick for the fabrics
to put in my Village.
I guess
that I am going for a Spring colored quilt!
It seems that I happen to have a lot of
choices to pull from for that theme!
And just because I find it hard to resist...
I joined another Instagram sew along.
It's a Jelly Roll rug sew along. The
ones I have seen are all turning out so
cute! But let me tell you.. it was so hard to
open up this jelly roll!
It's by Cluck Cluck Sew... and the fabrics are adorable,
so of course I have been hoarding it.
It's time for it to be used... that's what I keep telling myself!
I can't wait to see the rug come together.
Last weekend was interrupted by the
Super Bowl, but I think I will find time this weekend.
I also couldn't resist a couple of layer cakes...
Mamas Cottage is by April Rosenthal
and Flower Mill by Corriander Quilts.
I really needed Flower Mill... because I know
I am going to want Corey's next line of fabric coming out soon.
I seem to have big plans for a short month!
How about you?
