The gals at Fat Quarter Shop asked us to whip up a mini using our favorite color of nail polish. I realized that I don't know my favorite color of nail polish because we have had a nail polish embargo since a certain little girl painted her body while lying on her bed quilt ;) So ya, you can imagine the girls excitement when I pulled down our little selection of nail polish from the tippy top shelf to see what colors we had ;) Wouldn't you know, my favorites were the purples ;)
And so I opted for an all Purple Nail Polish mini!!! I just love working with solids, you really get to enjoy the richness of the colors!!
When it came time to quilt this little mini, of course I went with purple. And I couldn't decide on a purple, so I grabbed my Fantastico Purple Variegated spool that I picked up on my last trip to Superior Threads (where I just happened to be wearing my Fat Quarter Shop T-Shirt, to fun!!!) and enjoyed all of the shades of purple :) I quilted it with a scallop stitch using my walking foot ;)
And of course, my super girly Purple Nail Polish Mini is now hanging on my Purple Studio wall ;)
It fits in right along with all of my other purple mini's :) Yup, I love purple!!!
This mini is just to cute!!! So if you want to join in and Sew with Solids along with the Fat Quarter Shop check out the free Nail Polish Mini Video Tutorial here and download the free Nail Polish Mini Pattern here ;) I can't wait to see what color polish is your favorite!!!
