I started a quilt a few weekends ago
using Laurie Wisburn's
Tufted Tweets collection.
I am using a pattern that's kind of
a square within a square
within a square.
I was excited when I started cutting the fabric.
Then I started piecing the top....
and I had some second thoughts.
Loud.
There's a lot goin' on.
I started doubting my creative genius.
I almost
almost
ripped out every
single
seam
and started over from scratch.
But then I realized I was four squares from being
completely done.
busy.
It adds to its charm.
I just have to make sure I pick something
very very simple
for the backing.
In other news,
I bought this today:
Anna Maria Horner fabric.
From her Little Folks fabric line.
It's glorious.
Cheers,
A

When I shop online I go to www.hawthornethreads.com, www.sewmamasew.com, www.purlsoho.com, or www.fabricworm.com.
ReplyDeleteHope that helps!!
You are going nuts with the quilting these days!! You have turned into the me of just a wee month ago. :)
ReplyDeleteA suggestion that I have for fabric shopping- if you find something you like on those sites- search etsy for it. I have found quite a few shops on etsy that I like and the fabric is often cheaper there.
And I like busy too- have you seen the first quilt that I made? :)
Like the blue and white fabric.
ReplyDeletePerfect next to Grandma's bird.
Keep up the creative work!
