The fabrics were all from my stash, which made this project even better because I'm on a no shopping pact until I make a significant "dent" in my over loaded shelves!! Unless of course I just need to add one or two fabrics to what I have to finish a project. hehehe :).....sheepish grin. shhhhh!
For some reason these squares look a little more yellow than they really are. Note to self: Gotta get a better camera and some better "user" skills.
This pinwheel is a better color shot. Don't you just love the green!! So delicious. The backing said boy for sure.
Now I'm just playing with some camera angles. ok, ok, I can't get enough of these fabulous colors. I'm so excited that I have enough fabric to make another one!!
My humble lable. A rectangle of muslin. A permanent black marker. :)
I just finished some dresen plate table circles. I'd call it a runner but I have a round table so technically it's not really a runner. Oh, and I have pictures of my new kitchen to share with you soon. Later in the week I should have the photo shoot completed. Fun, fun! I am pleased with the results AND my kitchen is MUCH more functional now. I will also have the AFTER shots of my sewing room coming. That space is now organized (believe it or not) and humming along just fine, hence the newly finished projects that I am quickly crossing of my list. I'm posting this on Amy's Quilt Festival you can also view it here. Lots of great creations to feast you eyes on!!
As always, thanks for stopping by. See you tomorrow!!
How fun is this!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel guilty for purchasing fabric to finish a project. Better to do that than 1. not finish or, 2. dislike what you do finish because it isn't "right." Even if you bought fabric to finish this, it would be worth it. I use more fabric when I'm happy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt. No wonder your niece was so proud of it! Great work.
