Throwback Thursday Vol.3

The quilt I'm going to share for Throwback Thursday Vol.3 is my Whispering Love quilt.


This quilt was made for a very special woman who was battling Ovarian Cancer. I made this for her hoping it would provide her a bit of comfort during the chemo treatments and her surgery. I'm happy to say that she is doing well now :) And still loving the quilt :)

This quilt was a labour of love and what I feel as one of the prettiest quilts I have ever made.

The fabrics all have their unique beauty just like her :)

Lost: Blogging Mojo

So two weeks has slipped by quickly as I noticed that is the last time I put a post up. I haven't been sewing much in the last couple of weeks. I did do some shopping though....it's not that I need more fabric.....I just can't help myself to pretty fabrics. Here's my latest haul :)

There's some Kona Pewter, Riley Blake Dots, Bumbleberries in Green, Grey and Orange, Mixology and a Teal Ribbon Fat Quarter. When I went into the quilt shop, I just needed 1.25 m of Kona Pewter.....I walked out with much, much more....All the dot prints are for a future quilt.

So after talking myself out of buying fabric for a little while, I was on the road for work. So while looking for a public washroom where I was, I ended up having to stop in at a fabric store. I tried two other places before stopping there including buying my lunch at one of them. I had to buy fabric in order to use the facilities. Working on boats has it's pitfalls.....so I ended up with these Fat Quarters....

Lots of dots! I need lots of dots so I've been collecting feverishly to have enough for that quilt.

Then I also received a squishy package in the mail from Sew Sisters :)

Ah :) I've been so happy with their Bargain Lover bundles lately...sadly I may have to leave this club soon due to the fact that I have an INSANE amount of Fat Quarters.....I must be reaching around 400 Fat Quarters right now....my sewing room is bursting at the seams! I can't possibly sew as fast as fabric keeps coming in! I am so addicted to this club due to the monthly surprise :)

So in Sewing Projects, I can finally share the first 3 Mosaic Tiles blocks that I made for my sister over @ Jill's Quilting and Appliqué






These are so easy and fun!

I'll need to start the next set in a couple of weeks. 

Have you ever done a swap before?
