4/30 A Finish & some Friday Fabric

Can you believe that I started this quilt sometime in the first week of April and it is finished?? Me either! I finished it last night, tossed it in the wash this morning, then got it tumbling in the dryer before I took it out for pictures between raindrops. It was a little breezy too.


Then when I brought it inside it hit me. I totally forgot to label it!!! Wahhhhhh.
Thank you,Des for sharing the tutorial for that quilt. I'll be making more of these.

Now for the Friday Fabric Feature;
The sun came out so I took Nicey Jane in the backyard for a photo shoot.You'll notice in the background that we still don't have leaves on the trees and the grass is just starting to green up. These fabrics are just what this scene needed. This is what college girl has chosen for her Junior year quilt. She only wanted the blue/green/yellow colorway. No pink this time. As soon as she said which colors she was thinking about I sent images of Nicey Jane to her and she loved it too. I can't wait to get started on this one but thinking it will be sometime in June.



Next we have some Hummingbirds by Patty Young for Michael Miller, along with some Ta Dot by Michael Miller. LOVE these!


Another one I have been drooling over and anxious to get my hands on, Poppy by Laura Gunn for Michael Miller. You'll see some of the stripe off to the side there too. I do wish she would have done more coordinating prints in this colorway, like she did for the orange/blue line. Not sure of the thinking on that.


So far today I sewed up a quick fleece pillowcase type diaper changing pad for a friend. I have lots more sewing on the schedule for this evening so I'd better get a move on! So there you have it, I have done some sort of sewing every day this month! I'm so excited by this that I just might make that my goal for May as well.

Praise - For College Girl's stand on modesty at school and her willingness to be vocal about it. For my son's stand in his World Religions class. I'm so thankful for their stand on the TRUTH!

Prayers - That the editorial that College Girl has been asked to write for the school newspaper would generate some great discussion on campus and that God would use it (and her) for His glory.
