Off to Market

Pin It The blog will be quiet for the week as I make my way to Portland for Quilt Market!  My first time at Market!!!  I am excited to return to Portland; I went there 13 years ago on my very first business trip as a working professional.  Practically the first time I flew in a plane.

I hope to have lots of exciting things to share when I return! Pin It

Insta...addiction

Pin It I did it!  For my recent birthday, I finally bit the bullet and got a smart phone.  The main reason I wanted one was to participate in all the Instagram fun.  Quilt-alongs, wip sharing, etc.

I sense an Instagram addiction coming on.....

Fun Fabrics on Friday

Pin It

Had some happy mail come in this week.  Laura Gunn sent this wonderful assortment of her new collection of blenders, Edges.  I am loving the Collage print on the top of the charm pack.  I can't wait to play around with this fun stack.

This week's project has been playing with this stack above for a new quilt pattern I'm working on.  The colors are vibrant, yet soft.  So perfect for this "May flowers" time of year.  :) Has anyone noticed I keep slipping the flowers blooming in my yard into my recent pics?  :)  I'll show you a little progress on this quilt soon.  I've been all business with my iron and rotary cutter this week.

Have you been admiring all the Lucky Penny by Alison Glass I'm using in the BOM each month?  Well, today's your lucky day!  Lucky Penny is ON SALE at Pink Castle Fabrics.  $3.00 per half yard.  Lots of other prints on sale too.

And if Brenda at Pink Castle doesn't have all the Lucky Penny prints you need, Peg at Sew Fresh Fabrics has some Lucky Penny too - including the funky Mural print in 2 colorways.

1. Sisters Ten BOM January, 2. Sisters' Ten BOM February Block 1, 3. sisters' ten March block 1, 4. April Sisters Ten BOM block1, 5. aunt eliza's star 1

These are the Sisters' Ten BOM blocks so far!  If you are not participating already, we'd love to have you join in.  Did I mention it's FREE?!?!?  These are the first 5 blocks of the 10 in the BOM.  Plenty of time to catch up - with the exception of Lady of the Lake, these blocks are not too time consuming to put together.  

What are you working on this weekend?
