Katniss says, "It is about time!
Where have you been?
I have been right here in the sewing room waiting for you."
The Penny Patch Quilt-Along is in full swing at
and there are some great quilts in the
I best get sewing if I am going to join in!
I am making an Apple Pie Penny Patch quilt.
Here are my fabrics:
I picked these fabrics a month ago and was ready to go and posted this here in
and then while I was waiting for the cutting requirements, I got busy with other projects and these pretty fabrics sat in stack in my sewing room.
This is my color scheme:
Fabric A - green
Fabric B - red
Fabric C ... pop color ... yellow
Low Volume
(hmmm ... looks like I shall be moving the dark check over to the red/black side)
Fabric N - the squares in the front.
I am making a twin-sized Penny Patch Quilt.
When I fussy cut the squares from the apple pie recipe print,
I had some small pieces left over so I cut them to 2" squares rather than cut a strip
so I could save the remaining print for another project.

You can really see the contrast here between the colors and the low volume.
That black/white check is definately getting moved left as it sticks out too much to be low volume and the light green/red print with the white background will be moved over to the middle with the lighter fabrics.
Oh Pat, I am in love with your fabric choices. I cannot wait to see more of your progress. Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteI swear, we should shop together. You pick the greatest fabrics. What an eye for color and pattern you have.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty your fabrics are! I will enjoy seeing your progress.
