First up, I was a winner in the Blogger's Quilt Festival hosted by Amy at Amy's Creative Side blog!! I had my choice of either 10 FQs of Designer Cottons or 10 half yards of Kona cottons from Sew Fresh Fabrics. Now, that's a prize! I chose the 10 half yards of Kona. It was perfect timing because I've been mulling around making a series of Modern Amish wallhangings and this is perfect! I chose left to right: Crocus, Lupin, Peridot, Jade Green, Brown, Mulberry, Caribbean, Cerise, Tomato and Surf....
I've been waiting for this collection since September! It is the gorgeous Lily & Will by Anne Sutton of Bunny Hill designs. Oh my, it is so beautiful. I would love to get it in each of the colors ways, but unfortunately, the budget won't allow that. But, I have a very special baby boy quilt to make and as soon as I saw this collection, I knew this is what I wanted to use. It took so long to come in though that I missed making the quilt for the shower, but the baby isn't due to arrive until January, so I should be okay.
I'm making Anne's Nighty Night Will with it - cute and elegant at the same time, I think...
I had to jump on the Pure bandwagon. I just couldn't hold out any longer...these three charm packs and the yardage - the argyle - I love that! - for the outer border and the brown w/blue swirls for the inner border...
I think I see a theme here - I'm just loving the blue & brown these days. o:)
