Flower Market - HQM Quilt 7

 It is Week 7 of the Happy Quilting Marathon and after sharing my happy Poppie Cotton bundle earlier in the week, I figured it was only fitting to finish up a Poppie Cotton pattern!!!    And didn't it just turn out so adorable!!!  This is Flower Market!

Isn't it just so pretty!!!   I used a cherished Fat Quarter Bundle of Olive's Flower Market (Same name of fabric as pattern, totally meant to be)  by Lella Boutique.  I just love Vanessa's fabrics!!!   I have sewn with almost every single one of her lines :)   I used just the black and pinks from this line, and I love how "all girl" it makes this quilt.  Truly, pink and black is a favorite color combo :)  

I started this Flower Market quilt early last year for a retreat, and even got to take a class with Jina (co-founder of Poppie Cotton) for it.  I had so much fun making up each of the flower blocks, and  finished the quilt top almost a year ago.  Now it just makes me so happy to have it all done :)  

When it came time to quilt it, I decided to just go with an all over loose feather.  I just love how soft and pretty this design it, fits the quilt just perfectly :)  And of course, I used  my favorite 402 thread so it blended just perfectly in both the black prints and the white background ;)    

And I am  super excited to have finished this up right before graduation as this is going to make a special gift for a wonderful youth graduating this year.   So excited for her!!! I just love giving quilts for graduation, such a wonderful thing to take with you to college to snuggle up with while studying :)

And that is Quilt #7 - Flower Market ;)  7 Down and only 19 more quilts to go in the Happy Quilting Marathon :)   Yippee, I am in the Teens!!!!  

And that is it for today, thanks for popping in to share this finish with me!!! 

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Weekend!!

A Star is Born in Ombre!!!

Last week I mentioned I was starting some new Charming Baby Quilts . . .Well today, I get to share the finish!!!  This is a Star is Born and I am so excited to have finally made this quilt with a nice, crisp, white background.  Doesn't it just make those rainbow of colors shine!! 

I was working on a secret project using V & Co.'s Ombre Galaxy, and when I had a 5" strip and a 2 1/2" strip left from my Fat Quarters, I knew right away it would make excellent Charm Packs and Binding Strips ;)  So I went to my Charming Baby Quilts book, and picked A Star is Born, because, like it said, I have really wanted to make this with a white background :)  

I mean, how can I not pick to make this quilt every time, tee hee hee.   It truly has become a favorite of mine.   And it really goes together fast.  I made the quilt top in 2 days, while working on other projects as well.   And now I have a happy rainbow version to add to the collection of A Star is Born quilts.   

This quilt uses Two Charm Packs and 2 yards of Background Fabric.  So really, we almost all have that lying around in our stash.   And don't you just love the scrappy rainbow binding, so fun!!   And I have just loved seeing all of the A Star is Born quilts you all have been making :)  It's so fun to stroll the #CharmingBabyQuilts hashtag and see all of your amazing quilts!!!

And when it came time to quilt mine, I opted for an all over swirl free motion design.   But I noticed that my swirls were starting to get to be only about 2-3 swirls deep, so I super swirled these and echoed them a whole lot more.  So fun!! I love all of the added texture it gives the quilt :)

 I just love how this one turned out!!   I truly don't think I will ever tire of making this particular quilt.  It is just classic and makes such a fun gift.   In fact, I gifted the Nice Ice Baby version just last week ;)  

I just love making Charming Baby Quilts and I will be sharing the other quilt I started soon, the top is done I just need to quilt it  !!!!   To see more of my Charming Baby Quilts Book, you can visit this Page, that shares all of the original Charming Baby Quilts as well as Free PDF's of each quilt in a larger size (just in case you are not in need of baby quilts) and a Free PDF of a Charming Baby Sampler Quilt.

Thanks for stopping in today :)

Happy Quilting!!!

Poppie Cotton Spring Market!!

 If you have followed along for a little bit, you know how I adore Poppie Cotton!!!  Poppie Cotton is an amazing fabric company started by my good friends Jina Barney and Lori Woods.  Their fabrics are just beautiful and are wonderful to sew with.   The quality is fantastic and I just love all of their pretty prints!!!  I have been blessed to sew with many of their fabric lines for Fabric Tours (Including here, here, here, here, here, and here :)  so you can imagine how excited I was to receive Poppie Cotton's Spring Market in the mail this week!!! 

 And how adorable!!!   Poppie Cotton's sent a fun little treasure to go with each of their new 8 lines they will be releasing.   And I am super excited about the Barnyard Basics Color Card.  Those are so convenient to have when picking out backgrounds :)  

And talk about a line up of amazing designs!!!  I am super excited for them all, and might even be sewing with a line already :)  Aren't those tiny squares from Songbook Serenade just precious.  I cant' wait to share the project with you later this year!!  

It's sad not getting to go to market, but it sure makes it super fun when it arrives on your door step!!!  If you haven't tried Poppie Cotton yet, I highly recommend it.  You can find a list of quilt shops where you can find  it here.  

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!!
