Well this is spring break for me, but sadly there has been no sewing for me. Which is so sad because all I want to do is pet my fabric and then cut it up and sew it back together again. Of course some got delivered to the house but I am 9 hours away in Tennessee.
The good thing about this week is that I get to spend it with my little brother and especially my fiance. He lives here for work and I will be moving after school in May.
While he has been at work part of this week I have been watching Playful Piecing Techniques, a Craftsy class taught by Camille Roskelley. She and her mom Bonnie are my favorite fabric designers, everything they do is amazing to me. I want to make all the quilts from that class. I also got her newest book from JoAnn's this week and want to make many of the projects.
I especially want to make the quilts Swell, Vintage, Playground, Adorn, and Fresh. They all look like classic, retro and modern.
While I was at JoAnn's I also stumbled across this magazine. I have seen it on Instagram a lot and I fell in love with it. It is so modern and the colors and springy feel from this issue inspire me to make so many more quilts, again, add to the growing list of quilts to make.
And BONUS, it came with these adorable pins!
And while I was there I had to pick up some fat quarters to add to my stash. I am really trying to build a stash of fabrics that I can pull from if I want to try out a new block or if I want to whip something up quickly. I love them all.
It looks like I got a lot of pink, which is rare for me but with all these springy quilts popping up I realized that I need to have some pink in my stash.
Thanks for stopping by, hopefully next week I will have some quilts to show!
