April Sew Sampler!!!

 Its a new month and a New Year for the  Sew Sampler Box!!!   April is always an exciting month because you get a peek at the new Quilt Along . . . and I am determined to keep up this year!!!!  The theme for this month is Enchanted in April and it is just making me so happy!!!  This little aqua box is jam packed with amazing quilting goodness!!!   

I was so excited to see this new Flower Girl Bobbin Bloom Fat Quarter Bundle by My Sew Quilty Life!!!   I got to make the Vintage Stitching sample quilt with this fabric a little while back, and it is just beautiful!!  Everything is just so petite and precious, love it!!   And how adorable is that Bobbin Blooms pattern.   This one is going straight to the top of the "to make" list ;)  

And the notions for this new year of Sew Sampler are just so amazing!!!   I am so loving this Sew Creative Quilty Journal.  One side is lined and the other is graph paper, it is just perfect for when design inspiration hits.   Love it!!!   And the Crafty Clutch Kit is just so cute.   Again, my girls are fighting over who get to make this one ;)  And the Sew Happy Enamel Needle Minder is just sew cute, and perfect for this Happy Quilter!!! 

And with a new Sew Sampler year comes a new QAL!!!  This year is Pieceful Baskets.   The original is made in the gorgeous Shoreline Fabric by Camille Roskelley, and there are Kits Available.   But I wanted to try and push myself out of my comfort zone a bit and try a fun, bright background!!!   So I choose this Kona Lime Background, and then went to my stash of Fat Quarters to see what would be happy with it.   I choose this Milk and Honey bundle and I just love how happy these sweet vintage colors are on that happy spring green background ;)   Can't wait to watch this one come together ;)    

And that is April Sew Sampler Box.  I can't wait for May to make another Pieceful Basket block ;)  

Happy Quilting!!!

Planning a New Scrappy Neutral Quilt!!

 A little while back I made this made this Cabin Among the Stars , Scrappy Neutral quilt.  (which there is a free pdf pattern for, just sayin ;)  I so loved it and have been wanting to make another Scrappy Neutral Quilt ever since.  

Well, the other day, I noticed the neutral scrappy drawers are getting pretty full!!!   And well, I recently got these Turkey in the Straw BOB AccuQuilt Die and Friendship Chain BOB AccuQuilt Die.  And how fun would they be paired together in scrappy neutral!!!  

So I went over to my EQ8 and started playing.   This is what I cam up with.   Isn't it just so fun!!!   It will make a large lap size quilt and I think it is joining to be just gorgeous.   I love adding the snowball cornerstones to continue the chain.    And adding a second block to offset the chain, perfect ;)   

So now, It is time to start cutting!!!   And you know, I just love AccuQuilt for super speedy scrap cutting!!!   This is going to be a fun new project ;)

What about you???  Have you tried a Neutral Scrappy Project??  They really are oh so much fun and turn out just beautiful!!
