I still have two spots open in my PiF, so leave me a comment here if you are interested!
First off, Happy New Year! I'm really excited to have a fresh year ahead full of creative possibilities and to also set some goals for myself this year in terms of the skills I would like to pick up or improve on in the months ahead. I have a couple posts swimming around in my head at the moment and will be writing a few words on this in the coming weeks.
While December was kind of a slow month for me in the sewing department with moving, the holidays, and having company (some gift making, knitting, and embroidery has gone on...more on that later), I have been thinking a lot about the upcoming projects I want to make and drooling over the fabrics that I would love to work with. With all of the holiday sales going on, it's been hard to resist emptying my checking account, so it really is perfect timing that Laura over at Quokka Quilts would be organizing her very own Blogger's Choice Fat Quarter Bundle competition, where basically the point is to daydream up your own bundle of gorgeous fabric, shopping optional ;). While I would hit the ceiling it if Fat Quarter Shop ever asked me to come up with my own selection, this is the next best thing. Here is my selection (listed by row, left to right):
Stitch Organic Lagoon Double Arrows / by Betz White for Robert Kaufman Fabrics
Outfoxed Olive Fern Stripe / by Lizzy House for Andover Fabrics

One of the things I love about this bundle is the addition of the gray chambray solid. I am really hoping to incorporate more fabrics with texture into my quilting this year like flannels, linens, chambrays, and shot cottons.
Great collection. I have the birdies in a collection I put together, but it's not really doing it for me right now as a whole, so I may need to go back to the drawing board entirely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and bold collection. I put one together but not sure about one of them. Got tired of stressing over it! LOL
ReplyDeleteExcellent bundle, Jenelle! I started one the other night and have a few of the same ones you do in it, but I got frustrated and quit. Yours looks so much better! I love those colors and the grey chambray is a perfect addition.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Glad you had fun! :) thanks for entering!
ReplyDeleteThat`s a fabulous bundle Jenelle and happy new year to you! x
ReplyDeleteI love your bundle! Especially the chambray solids. I haven't seen those around before.
