Day 201

I have completed the first ten blocks of my buggy barn quilt and I think this quilt is going to end up being so stinking cute and it's mine, all mine.

Day 183

I have some leftover fabric from working on my buggy barn quilt and got the inspiration to make headbands. I took five of my favorite fabrics that would coordinate with some of my summer clothes, added a piece of elastic and voila, new headbands that didn't cost me $20.

Day 156

In the search of more fabric for my buggy barn quilt, I headed to Quiltworks in Bellevue. Aaron was the lucky child to accompany mom as Andy went to the Mariner game with dad. Quiltworks has a great little toy corner for the fortunate children who have to go with mom to the fabric store. Aaron had a great time playing with the Lego's while mom found more fat quarters for her quilt.

Day 146

I have started another quilt project for my BFF's little girl, Caleigh. The fabric and block design have been chosen for over a year and I am now getting motivated to begin the quilt. The colors are all based off the blue print second from the top. The colors are fun and remind me of sherbet.

Day 142

I am starting a new quilt next month with the quilting group from church. We will be learning a new method of cutting out a pattern and assembly of the quilt. My starting off pattern is the bottom fabric and the top three are fat quarters I purchased to add to my need of 30 fat quarters. Yes, I need 30 different fabrics and praise the Lord for my mother-in-law and her stash. I'm really excited to start this new project.

Day 91

I bought myself some new fabric today. It is a charm pack of 5 inch squares of 20 different prints by Moda. My plans for these two charm packs is a disappearing 9 patch quilt for me. I have several quilts I'm working on for friends and family members and I saw this fabric and thought it was time to make myself a quilt.

Day 38

Today was one of those rare days that happens as often as snow in Seattle (minus this past winter), purchasing of quilting fabric. My mother-in-law had received notification of a fabric sale at one of the local warehouses of Kona Bay fabrics. Most of the bolts were six yards so you had to really like it. The prices were pretty good for print fabric, so my MIL and I split a couple of bolts of six yards and another bolt nine yards long. The red and white fabric on the bottom was the ONLY bolt of that fabric and I had several ladies mourning their loss of finding it after me. I don't have any plans as of yet, but I'm sure inspiration will come in due time.
