Wallflowers

I finally received my Wallflowers fabric for the Wallflowers Quilt Design Contest!!!



There are some great stash builders in this bundle...



And don't you love these florals?



The colors are absolutely perfect...



Even the selvage is cute!



I was so excited to get started and I've already made my first block to make sure I could still piece my own pattern. This block is 16 1/2" square!




And I am working on the rest of my center blocks...




It's so exciting, because I've waited since June for this fabric to arrive. It's really such a soft, light cotton, I think it's going to make such a comfortable quilt.

This week I also received my very first bolt of fabric. I was tired of always running out of white fabric, so I took the plunge and bought a whole bolt of Moda Bleached White. It makes me feel like I'm almost a professional.




If you order 15 yards or more from Fat Quarter Shop you get 20% off, so really I SAVED money...but that didn't stop my husband from giving me the "MORE FABRIC!!!?" look.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Sarah Quilts is hosting a fabric stash link party, and fortunately, I just cleaned up my sewing space (for the most part). Once I got all the fabric all folded and put away, I realized I don't have as much fabric that I thought I did. Ugh. A little depressing. I repainted these two shelves--just for fabric storage--and really, two shelves is more than enough! I could've gotten by with one. I don't really have my fabric organized in any particular way...except I do I have a shelf dedicated exclusively to Bonnie and Camille fabric... But most of the fabric is just folder and shoved together. You can tell what my favorite colors are. I have a few stacks that are separated for specific projects, like my Indian Summer fabric And Lori Holt's Bake Sale--there are so many things I want to make with this And you can see here in my Solids stack that I have about 7 shades of aqua in my quest to find the perfect one I should probably buy some more fabric so my shelves don't look so empty!!! Oh, and as an update to an earlier post, I found a 20% off coupon for the Fat Quarter Shop, so I ordered the fabric I had been wanting. That can help with the empty space on my shelves, but just don't tell my husband ; )
