Seasons of Home is having a Fourth of July Country Fair! I was totally inspired by Moda's Market theme this year and had to make a great sign to hang in front of the store.
My cousin Chelsea was my 2nd set of eyes and helped me with the details. She also had to be the one in the pictures because I was still in my PJs. The Country Fair goes July 1, 2, and 4. Make sure to come up!
I've been having lots of fun this summer already. I've been teaching my first beginning quilting class and the class is going great. I chose to use Amy Ellis' pattern "Posie Patch" from her book "Modern Basics." We have kits in two color ways done so it was a no brainer for the ladies. This group is so great and I'm really glad they're my first class.
Laying out a quilt and finding just the right placement for each block can be time consuming but it was a lot of fun in a group. They're tops will be done on Tuesday and we'll applique the flowers.
Here are some projects Ann surprised me with today. They all turned out so great. She made one throw and one queen size quilt for my sister whose house is just getting finished and needed some great quilts for all of those beds she is going to need now. And the other is for herself and is American Janes mini-merry go rounds pattern and fabric line. Yay Mom.
The American Jane quilt is backed with hunter orange minky and is incredibly beautiful.
I've sewed up a few of the rosettes that were included in the ruffle dress ( I call it the cherry dress) and here are the two that I came up with. Oops, I'm playing with my new iPad. Yes, iPad! So i don't have all of my pictures. I'll have to put the other one on tomorrow. It's at Seasons of Home on the cherry dress.
Tomorrow i'm sewing up baby booties. They are toooo cute!
Here's a sneak peek at what's in store for Halloween from Seasons of Home.
That is the front and back. These are Halloween panels with great coordinates. I especially love the candy corn corners. Ooh, now I'm REALLY excited for Halloween.
