New Fabric Friday

It has been a VERY BUSY week over here!

We are starting out February with a BANG!

Lot's of beautiful prints have arrived and I am so excited to share them with you this fabulous Friday!

New from Dear Stella

Piper

Words cannot describe how gorgeous this collection is!

New from Moda

Posy by Aneela Hoey

 Ladies, it is ALL about the mints and corals these days.

 

In fact, I happen to be OBSESSED with these colors right now!

 Throw in some Lavendar and you are set for Spring!  I am making my girls' Easter Dresses out of this collection and can't wait to get started on them! 

(I realize the Mint Stripe and Mint Cirlces are missing from the photo, they are due to arrive next week, *squeal*)

How cute would a Spring Quilt be out of these Precut 5" Squares?

 

 New from Riley Blake Designs

Little Matryoshka

Be still my heart....I LOVE this collection.

The aqua and purple combo is delish!

We also have in the 10" Squares and the 5" Squares!

 Restocks this week

This little beauty from The Sweetest Thing Collection is back in stock!

As well as these 3 awesome Chevron Prints!  Get them while the're hot, they won't last long!

Minky Quilts

With the hustle and bustle of the Holidays, and then the fabulous round of sickness we had over here, I totally forgot to show you all the quilts I made my kids for Christmas!

I decided to bust out these quilts towards the first of December. 

And I didn't finish them until Christmas Eve! 

I seem to have a time management issue. Even still, they turned out just as I wanted. 

I let each of them pick their fabric collection, but I didn't tell them what it was for.

Brooke chose "Happily Ever After" and Jack chose "Rev 'Em Up" 

Two fabulous choices if I do say so myself.   

I might have steered them the right way.....there is no harm in a little persuasion :) 

Out of the two, I have to say that the "Princess Blankie" is my fave!

And it was 100% the hardest!  Sewing with minky can be a challenge in and of itself, but add in a little Satin Bias Tape and try to ruffle it in between the layers......and there might have been some cursing. 

Totally worth it!

 (Check out that squiggly sewing job around the edges!  No one is perfect, right?)

My little buddy's "Fire Blankie"  was everything he ever dreamed of. 

I didn't quilt either quilt, in fact, I tied them.

If you look closely you can see little tiny ties.  I didn't want the quilting to take away from the soft and snuggliness of the minky back. 

His was quite a bit easier to finish.  I just rolled the minky from the back onto the front and stitched it down.  No cursing here, and it turned out great. 

 They didn't mind snuggling right up to their blankies!

Maybe I need a minky blankie.....

And don't you worry....I didn't forget about this little tootie!

(never mind the blurry Christmas morning phone pic)

Since she got THIS new blankie for her Birthday last Summer, I decided to make her something else.

 I used my left over minky pieces and made her a Taggy Owl.

 She absolutely LOVES to stick her fingers in the tags of things, so I filled this soft and squishy owl pillow with all sorts of loopy tags. 

I have already decided that if I ever want to make my kids handmade gifts for Christmas in the future, I will start in July.  1 month was just not enough time to make 3 handmade gifts!

Have a great weekend all!

A Noteworthy Friday

I have been waiting for this collection for months!

And it did not disappoint! 

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Bucket List Print!

And the colors in this collection are so fun for Spring. 

 

I mentioned last week that we also have in the pre-cuts for this "Noteworthy" collection. 

  

Do you have any Spring projects planned....this collection is perfect!

New Fabric Friday

Well, we started the New Year out with a Bang at out house.  

A flu bang.

The worst part is that we ALL had it at the same time.  

No one could get up to take care of anyone else.  We were quite a site.  

But after 9 days it looks like we have officially recovered.  Phew.  It was close. 

Things have still been pretty quiet around here.  

Which was a blessing from Heaven since we were all so sick. 

Here is what's new in the SHOP this week. 

It's a PRE-CUT EXTRAVAGANZA!

Posy Charm Packs

 

Posy by Aneela Hoey for Moda isn't due out until February, but we have the Charm's already!  It is sooo perfect for Easter.  Chicks, bunnies, and all in the most beautiful pastel colors!

Cherry on Top Charm Packs, and Layer Cakes

  

We already have in the yardage for this fabulous collection. Cherry on Top is also perfect for Spring, and especially Valentine's Day!  Those sweet treats and little owls are sweeter than pie!

Noteworthy Fat Quarter Set & Charm Packs

  

I am so excited for the yardage of this collection to arrive next week! Noteworthy by Sweetwater for Moda is a highly anticipated fabric collection for Spring.  The doodle print alone has me hooked.  I love the color combinations and can't wait to start sewing with it!

Restocks of note:

Little Kukla in Retro

Chevron in Red from Riley Blake

Modern Chevron in Gray

Chic Chevron in Lagoon

And that's it for now! 

From the looks of it, I need to drop everything to start making quilts to keep us warm Saturday night!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!  I hope you have a warmer weekend than me!

New Fabric Friday

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas Holiday.

We sure did.

Things have been pretty quiet around here the last few days...and that's the way I like it.

Although the UPS guy did drop off a box full these beauties the other day...

Les Amis by Patty Sloniger for Michael Miller Fabrics

 

 I LOVE THEM!

 Whimsical and fun, and it comes in both boy and girl colorways!

Both color palettes are exceptional. 

And that's it for this week!

Do you have any awesome plans for New Years?

Do you want to know a secret?  My husband and I haven't stayed up til midnight on New Years Eve for years.  We are weak-sauce.  We party with the kids at 10pm, and then hit the hay.  

Lame-o.  I know. Maybe this year we will make it til 11PM!

See You Next Year!
