My new passion for quilt making, fueled by my Christmas quilting books and a gift certificate, have made a liar out of me. But, I'm having the best time!!
The new quilt project started when I decided that aprons out of gently used thrift items weren't inspiring me anymore. A light bulb went on and I grabbed a bunch of shirts and made jelly roll style (2-1/2" wide fabric) strips.
Well, that didn't solve anything, it only created a problem. The strips were dull and boring; not inspiring; yawn, etc. You get the picture.
Anita Heady http://www.sewcialstudio.com/ to the rescue! I stopped into her quilt store this morning and she showed me a quilt she had made with fabrics of the same color. I was blown away by how incredible the quilt is. I bought some complimentary colors and now I'm jonesing to make my own version.
Here is the before --
Thank you Anita. You made my day!
