We're attending a wedding in mid-September, and I really (really!) want to make a quilt for the happy couple. I actually purchased fabric for it last month, but haven't been able to get going on it until now. Nothing like a little last-minute crafting to get one's juices flowing! Frankly, at this point, it is much more likely they will be receiving a quilt I.O.U. than a finished quilt-- but I'm gonna give it a go. :)
The book features smaller projects, wall and lap-sized designs. Since I know I want to make a bedsize quilt, I have created a plan based on the designs in the book.
The inspiration/main fabric is pictured below on the left, with the coordinating fabrics that I purchased last month on the right.
Yesterday, I did all my cutting. Hopefully today I can start sewing!
Summer can be a busy time but it sounds like you are having a good one. Oh, my goodness! Kindergarten already. What are you going to do with your self with the boys at school? Oh, I know make that quilt. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like an awesome plan! I can't wait to see how it comes together!
ReplyDeleteIt has to feel a little strange to think of having a few moments to yourself this fall, but once you adapt, you will love it!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your half marathon! I did one in Feb. and it wasn't nearly as bad as I expected.
Seriously - over there where it says "About Me," it should totally say, "I'm Wonderwoman." Don't know how you do everything you do!!! Love those fabrics, btw :-)
ReplyDeleteI know your quilt will be a cherished gift. Congrats on the Half-Marathon!!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics you picked!
ReplyDeleteI find I work better if I have a deadline good luck can't wait to see it!
