It is here! I have been waiting for this collection to arrive for many reasons. It is beautiful as always, and I have a pattern which is going to work very well to kit with this. I am working on putting it together today so I can get a picture out to you. The pattern is created by Myra Harder using this collection. The patterns that came with the prints are friendly as always.
Janet Clare has designed a collection of wonderful nautical prints. They make me long for lazy days. Are you looking to make a quilt for that fisherman in your life? Or how about a quilt for your cabin? I think this collection will also be great for that little boy's room. The book is filled with simple quilts. And if you want to go with something easy, layer cakes are available.
If you had wanted to make a quite book or a quilt with all the abc's or even a toy for a baby, this panel is pretty awesome for that. The animals are wonky too!
Love these colors! You have to see this collection.
Great Colors!
Flannels have arrived!

I hope that this inspires you to get busy in your sewing room. If not, come see them in person. Pictures never do justice but it is a start. Happy Friday!
Binding is something I love to do. It is that final thing to complete a quilt...just before the washing...just to see it pucker. So when my quilter brought me 3 quilts she had finished, I knew just what I was going to spend my next day doing. Binding! I used to hand stitch it all until recently I learnt (or should I say became brave enough) to machine stitch it. It takes some practice but stitching in the ditch looks quite elegant. This collection by Basic Grey called Little Black Dress 2 is supposed to be shipping out today or tomorrow. That means by next week I should have it out and ready to talk you into taking it home. Weird, I know, but people tell me that fabric talks to them. (it talks to me too)
Happy Monday!
We are in the midst of a blizzard in southern Manitoba! I can hardly see across the street. Our temps are going to drop to a -45 wind chill factor yet...and yesterday it was +1 outside. I have been keeping busy putting some quilts together. This one is a nine patch pattern using the Little Black Dress 2 collection by Basic Gray for Moda. I am super pumped about the arrival of these prints in January (crossing my fingers). The pre cuts are going fast already.
Stay warm and safe everyone!
