Dumbos & Daisies

I've been saying for months that I want to get a couple quilts made up and start an Etsy store. I love making custom quilts, but sometimes it's just fun to work at your own pace using whatever inspires you.
 That's what this Dumbos & Daisies quilt is, just some fun fabric that turned into an adorable little girl quilt.


It measures 41" x 48" and is made up of a combination of Joel Dewberry, Moda and other designer fabrics, and Kona cotton solids. I just have to add binding and this little cutie will be ready to go to a new home!

A few more bee blocks

Sunday was a little gloomy and chilly out, so I spent most of the day in the sewing room! After many failed attempts my mom & I got a dvd player hooked up to the TV in there so we happily watched a few movies and seasons of Will & Grace and sewed our little hearts out.

August is Becky's month in the Fussy Cut Bee,
Fussy Cut Bee - August block for Becky
She sent out the MunkiMunki kitty fabric and a load of Anna Maria Horner in colors I love! I really can't wait to see the finished product in this one - the blocks are all going to be so fun!

These two blocks are for Angela for the Pretty in Pink Bee

She is working on a quilt for her niece and (smart girl) decided to request the quarter log cabin blocks for her month in the bee. I hope her niece loves it, I think it will turn out super cute!

I also had a chance to finish quilting an something I started a long, long time ago
This was one of the first quilt tops I made, all Amy Butler fabrics and a white flowered fabric (before I discovered Kona solids!) I did straight line quilting, and silly me forgot to take a picture. Maybe I'll wait until the binding is done for the big reveal...
