I designed the quilt with my night sewing blocks, took them down immediately in rows and clipped the numbers on them. I have started sewing it together.....about a third done.
My Kaffe fabrics have been needing a good straightening. I keep them in numerical order. This post shows 2 of the boxes. This group is duplicate pieces so I kept them out to play with.
I also pulled out a bunch of the light fabrics as I was sorting and straightening. I have already made 2 quilts with an assortment similar to this here and here. I think I may need to do another one.
I needed the shelf the blue assortment has been sitting on for a few years so I either need to find another location for them or file them back in to the boxes in numerical order. There are a few Phil Jacobs fabrics here too.
Yesterday my daughter and her husband celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary. My son and his wife will celebrate their 30th in October. 30 years, 5 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. I am truly blessed.
Congratulations to your children for their long, happy marriages. In today's world, you don't often see that, which is unfortunate, as evidenced our own family of 4 children, who have all been divorced, some more than once. Hopefully, our married grandchildren will set a different example. I see another of your beautiful quilts on the horizon, with another to follow on it's heels. Wanda, you are amazing! lv2bquilting2@comcast.net
Love your fabrics too. I wish I had such an assortment of Kaffe Fassett fabrics, mine is still so puny even though I do have quite a few. My goal this year is to make at least one quilt with his fabric. Last year two of my children celebrated 20 years of marriage and one ended his 15 years of marriage. Congrats to your children.
There it is, again! There is NO ESCAPING that light-colored Kaffe fabric with the circles and the mushroom-colored background, lol! I still have a piece of it that I use as a press cloth.
A delightful post today Wanda, I so enjoy looking at your fabulous fabrics. And fun to see yesterdays post with all you instructions. And seeing our perfect center circles just makes me smile.
I have been having HUGE computer problems... and missed yesterday...Oh how I dislike to talk to those kids in India... Still do not have my iPad working.
Love the Kaffe's and Phillip Jacobs, they are just happy fabrics and that's always a good thing in my book. And yes, you are blessed. We all are, in so many ways.
