Patchwork Progress


I'm making slow but steady progress on this quilt. I've been strip piecing rows of Kona Snow White with a color strip. Each one makes about 5 pairs of blocks. But every time I get to this point I keep seeing another color of fabric to add, so I make more strips. I think it's going to be really fun when it's done. Hopefully in the next few weeks I'll get this top finished.

New Fabrics and some New Patches

I picked up these Kona solids a the Fabric Shack last week. They had a coupon code SAVE5 and I got $5 off. Their price on Kona solids is the best I've found $4.19/yard. I had ordered school bus orange too, but they sold out of it. Oh well, I'll have to find it somewhere else.

And I ordered these prints from Hawthorne Threads. I love their website, you can login, add stuff to your cart and come back a day later and review, remove stuff, add stuff, etc. It took me a week to finally decide on these ones.


And I started putting together some of my owls into patches. I love these color combinations of pink, orange and green. It's just so happy. Now I need to make more owls. I only have 5 done. I think it's going to be a baby quilt though, so I probably only need about 9 or 12.

New Patches for the Latest Quilt


Here are a few of the latest patches I've been working on. I'm going to put them together with Kona Coal (gray) fabric as the sashing. I got my inspiration from Alissa at Handmade by Alissa . I like how it's coming together so far.
