Tula Pink

I love Tula Pink fabrics and really enjoy the midnight quilt show with Angela Walters so I decided to buy this book. To be honest I don't care about the quilting side of it, just the patterns.

This skull pattern is the main reason I bought the book. I love purple so I love the quilt in the book but I think I should use my favourite PJ shorts for colour inspiration. I cant make this quilt right now as too many other projects the go so I will make a mini!!!

These are my fabric choices.
It turns out this book is full of projects I want to make. I will add them to my ever increasing list.

September One Monthly Goal

I did it. I finished the second quilt top and have ordered purple butterfly fabric and pink butterfly fabric from craftsy for the backings.The pattern is a freebie at Me and My sister designs
I am looking forward to finishing these.

I thought I was finished!

I thought I had finished the twin quilts as I decided not to add a border. When I lay them out, I think they need a border. The pattern is a freebie at Me and My sister designs and has a wider border cut at 3.5 inches. I think I will make it the same size as the sashing cutting it at 2 inches

Bloggers Quilt Festival

It is time for the Blogger's Quilt Festival at Amy's Creative Side. My entry is a Carolyn Friedlander layer cake pop quilt. This quilt is a Fat Quarter Shop Shortcut Quilt Pattern. It is a very clever pattern. Easy to make and very effective.

I picked the fabrics that I thought my friend would like even though they didn't appeal to me at the time. I do love the finished product.

Modern Maples Placemats

I love the modern maples pattern and have made a table runner and a placemat using the pattern. I made two more recently. I really need to make a quilt with it!
