I Like Thursday # 71 ~ Keeping My Face to the Sun

 

Good Morning and Happy Thursday!

I am joining the fun with my friends at

I Like Thursday @ Not Afraid of Color

where once a week we choose to find and share happiness.

It is very gray and rainy and cold enough that snow is in the forecast here in my quilty corner.

It is a small piece of weather.

I always like to turn my face to sunny thoughts and and my happy place.

That is why I am posting this photo today.

This is a fabric panel.

It is from a new fabric collection,

Solana by Robin Pickens ~ Full Collection Here

The yardage and panels are just reaching the shops 

and the precuts are soon to follow.

I love sunflowers and the colors in this collection.

The designer, Robin Pickens, has a lovely Video Here

showing the complete collection and several patterns. 

I really enjoyed all the sunny fabrics and quilts and would like to make them all.

I shopped the internet and found the yardage and panels at a good price at

Country Cottage Fabrics

I am not affiliated with this shop.

I have purchased from them before and have been pleased with their service.

You will find this fabric arriving in many shops which feature Moda Fabrics.

 I will be posting photos of my new fabric soon after it arrives! 

I do already have this gorgeous calendar by the same designer. 
I saw this 2021 calendar online at Amazon and snapped it up.

The artwork is bright and beautiful.

This is a favorite quote of mine.

Here is the back of the calendar showing the monthly pages for 2021.

I a looking forward to hanging this calendar to brighten my sewing corner 

even on cloudy days. 

There is also a daily desk calendar and I have two of these on order,

one for me and one for a gift.

 I have been happily working on small quilt with this pretty fabric 

which I posted last Thursday.

It is a fun and easy pattern.

Here is one of the blocks.

More photos soon.

Since I often make sourdough bread on Thursdays

so we have fresh bread for the weekend,

I also have  bread dough from my sourdough starter 

on the dough hook 

in my bright orange kitchenaid mixer. 

Now that the weather has turned cooler,

Nutmeg and I have been snuggling under the quilts a lot.

Nutmeg likes to "tent" under the top quilt and cuddle.

May you and yours have a happy and quilty Thursday.

Be well and Be Safe.
