Mail Call ~ Part Two!

Hamilton Grove by Sue Beevers

This gorgeous fat quarter bundle also arrive yesterday in my mailbox!

I am sew blessed!

When ...

Ellen @ Little Jewel Quilts

... posted this fun post about ...

Offering a Fabric Reward for Finding Wednesday

I just had to join in the fun.

I've lost a few Wednesdays myself and never have found them.

However, my Saturdays and Sundays lately have been lovely

 and filled with fabric!

I have found that I can download these fabric swatches, too, 

into my EQ and am playing with the layout now ...

... or maybe ...

... or maybe ...

I am thinking maybe a snowball layout to showcase these pretty fabrics.

This would be a mini quilt using just these fat quarters.

Two of the fabrics in this layout are not a perfect match as they did not have 

the violets on the blue tonal background 

or the light blue splatter print for download.

It will make a pretty little quilt for my table or wall.

EDIT:

I think I got it ...

... this one!

This measures about 22" square,
uses all 8 fat quarters
and does not require more than 1/4 yard of any fabric.
The narrow outer border is actually a flange.

Hope to be sewing with these beauties soon!

Thanks, Ellen!


I am thinking that I have spent so much time petting and playing
with these fabrics that they qualify as another ...

Embracing my inner "NewFo"

 I have been seeing this linky party from

Barbara @ Cat Patches

all year and have been resisting.

I am supposed to be working on completing my UFOs this year, right?

Well, I have looked back at my track record so far this year and if I do the math,
I know it is going to add up to more NewFO's than anything else.

So I am embracing my true inner quilty muse here and getting in the spirit of this FUN challenge

Here are  my NewFO's for the month of March ...

My Quilty Kitties and I started sewing this project on the first day of March

We finished this one in time for the blog hop!

Mid-month my kitties and I finally started another blog hop project

We got this one done, too.

Looks like I need a blog hop deadline looming over me to "get 'er done."

We are also started playing with these lovely new fabrics ...

March Spring Frolic Mystery Quilt WIP

... and dug through our stash to start this fun one ...

"I Spy a Triangle" Quilt WIP

'cause a quilty gal has to just has to have a little new in her life.

It is spring!

Happy Newfo Beginnings!

Hope to have these two in the "got 'em done" pile soon

... just keep sewing ...
