Ah I just love a finish :) I'm really happy that this one is complete since I want to deliver it to the recipient in the next couple of weeks. I'm hoping the little boy will love it.
Hubby holding it up so I could take a picture. And Monty loves taking my spot on the futon :)
A close-up of the pockets with my Quilt-it....today magazine which I just recently found out that there will be no more of these magazines published. So sad those were some of my fav magazines :(
I love the light/med green and grey/black polka dot backing. It is just so gorgeous!
My first quilting label from Ikaprint. I absolutely love these! It is such a great way to label a quilt. Quick and easy. And it looks so professional :) The minimum quantity is 100 labels so I think I will have enough for a while.
I also received my order from Fabric Spot this week :)
I purchased a meter of Bluebird Park Lamp Post in Stone and 3/4 of a meter in Precious Text in Grey. I've had my eye on Bluebird Park Lamp Post forever but never purchased any. So I finally decided to pick some up :)
I'll be living out of a hotel for the next couple of weeks so I arranged to stay at an Inn who doesn't mind me using my sewing machine. So I'm going to take a few projects and my sewing machine along with me :) Excited to be doing some sewing while I'm away....it may also curb my shopping habit since I tend to shop more when I'm away from home for work. Of course, I do have a $50 Fabricville gift card so I will be making a visit to that store :)
Hope you're having a great quilting weekend!

Quilting is a new born again hobby of mine. I started a quilt over 7 years ago and then became too busy to finish it. I was reintroduced back into quilting and jumped in with both feet. My grandmother was the first quilter in my life and I still have quilts she made. I love how fabrics can just come together and create something new. This blog shows this side of my life. I answer every comment by email and/or by reply on here. Hope you enjoy my blog. Happy Quilting :)
Julia, your pocket book bed runner turned out quite lovely .... I do like those colours and it's a novel idea. Your two new fabrics are very nice. I'm trying to use from my stash and that's sometimes a challenge especially when I see lovely fabrics like your new ones. BTW, your labels look really good. Enjoy your trip. ^^
ReplyDeleteLove the bed runner. Glad you liked your labels. What size did you go with? Happy sewing while on the road.
