Catching up...

It's been a while since I have posted anything here. Been recovering from flu and the weather is certainly not making it easy. Anyway on the bright side it's certainly winter wonderland.


I did get a bit of sewing done. First up I completed the bee block for Robin. She had provided some vibrant Kaffe Fasset fabric to offset the dreary winter and asked for a block with stained glass look. Making this block definitely lifted my spirits and reminded me of those much coveted Tiffany lamps.



Next up I completed another WIP from last summer. A friend of mine had a baby boy and this was supposed to be for the new born. I did not get around to completing it till now. I guess it should still work for a 1 year old :)




This is made using a free pattern by Elizabeth Hartman and a charm pack of Road 15 by Sweetwater for Moda. I love the boyish colors. Quilted it in straight lines 1/2" apart using my walking foot. For the back, I used some Michael Miller fabric I had laying around for a almost 3 years now. I never did find a good use for it till now. It matches perfectly with the Road 15 colors.



My signature label and hopefully I get to the post office soon enough to mail it before the boy turns 2 ;)

  1. I love this pattern and the quilt you make. Can you tell me where you purchased the stamp you used for the label? It's great.

  2. It is a gorgeous quilt. I adore how you selected the fabrics! Not too babyish and not too grown up. Just perfect to last for a very long time.
