I am so in love with this version of the Madeline Schnibble..I varied the border which I think made it a bit more fun and whimsical.
and here’s my completed Sweet Spot using the Home Town fabric from Sweetwater.

Finished Sunny Trails and the Possibilities Club
Sunny Trails is quilted and bound and ready to hang in the new shop next month. (other than the label) I am so happy with this quilt, and I’m already thinking making another with scraps. I think this quilt has also been claimed once it’s finished being shown in the shop……more to follow on that.
Tonight was the second meeting of the Possibilities Club. This is a group that was started as a means to discuss different uses for pre cut fabrics as well as other ideas for using scraps that we all seem to accumulate. We meet once a month and each month one or two people will run the meeting by bringing in some ideas that they’d like to share. I’ve offered to take my turn in June.
There’s nothing like spending time with people who share your passion!
Sunny Trails Quilt
I fell in love with the Sunkissed Collection (Sweetwater for Moda) and was doing really well restraining myself. That was until I came across this pattern on the Moda Bakeshop site
I love this pattern and esp the fabric. I am always drawn to yellow in quilts so this one drew me right in. I’m already thinking of other fabrics I’d like to see this pattern done in. If only I didn’t need to sleep, then maybe I’d have more time to to make all the quilts in my mind.
The pattern is by Corey Yoder and her blog is at littlemissshabby.com (I will warn you that her blog could be very dangerous if you are not looking for a new project to start!) but what candy for the eyes!
I think I ordered the fabric that very day, then I had to wait because I’d decided to have the fabric shipped to my house instead of the border, the wait was a little more than 3 weeks!! If I’d had it shipped to the border I could have had it in 3 days. (lesson learnt)
It is snowing here today…..so I’ll go spend the afternoon with my Sunny Fabric!
Sunkissed
My much anticipated mail has finally arrived, this collection is so wonderful. It’s bright and sunny and reminds me of some of the clothes I wore when I was small.
March can still be a grey month here the weather does let up and the snow starts to melt, but that means lots of puddles and all the mess left behind from the sanded streets and walks.
I’ve made more progress on Emily’s quilt, the final round of ribbons are ready to be sewn. This quilt will take a backseat while I work on the Sunkissed top but I still plan to have it finished by the end of the month.
