Sewing Progress

 

Over the last week I started working with the newly released 

collections received while on vacation.

 "Barnyard Tales"

This is a super quick pattern and from start to finish

was no more than 30 minutes to make the top.

Progress Shot

The start of the second quilt top using the

same pattern above.  Some fellow brand ambassadors 

make beautiful quilts with complicated patterns [the

pieces are cut so small you can't tell what fabric they are

even using].  My theory is make quilts using larger blocks because 

it's about showcasing the newly released fabric lines.

"Meow"

This is a free pattern from Missouri Star Quilting used to

make the kitty blocks.

The large cat blocks were taken from the

panel in this collection.

"Alpha-babies"

I love the bright colors in this collection.

A soft book panel came with this collection.   When that happens

I turn those panels into reading quilts. 

"Beach Bound"

This is a beautiful collection but it's hard to photograph.

Progress Shot

The beginning of Beach Bound angels.  The background

fabrics for each angel were pulled from the fat quarter

bundle I received from Free Spirit.

The colors are very soft and this top will

photograph much better outside in natural light.

"Nights of Olde Salem" 

for Henry Glass Fabrics

This collection came Fed-X straight from Korea!

I was totally surprised to receive it after receiving

all the other collections {I'm not complaining}.

What's new in the brand ambassador program this year:

We have 2 months to turn in our project photo's/write-up

plus 

We receive 1 [one] yard cuts of all fabric in the

collections we are sent.  This allows more flexibility

 in creativity and for me that means more quilts 

 for the kids camp.
