Gingham Farmhouse Blog Tour

I always consider it such a compliment to be asked to sew with a Designer's fabric.  And Gingham Farmhouse by Poppie Cotton was such a treat.   

I was sent a bundle of 27 fabrics to work with and they are positively the sweetest fabrics.  There are gingham checks, little farmhouses, flowers, bunnies, and lattice.  All in the softest pink, lavender, cream and black.  And they just go together so beautifully.  

I made a sweet handful of hexies and I looked at the fabric for weeks.  I just kept coming back to the thought that I wanted to make a quilt that would completely reflect the softness of the fabric.  And I just couldn't seem to think of the right pattern to really bring that out.  

Me & My 18" Doll Book Review {And A Giveaway}

I was honored to be asked by Erin Hentzel, the Author of the new book, Me & My 18" Doll, if I would like to review her book and share a project here on my blog.    I'm always excited to sew for Jillian and Rosetta's collection of American Girl Dolls so of course I said yes.   

Tink And Stitch Needle Book Pattern

I am so excited to share this adorable needle book pattern by my friend Cheri.  I met Cheri at the retreat I went to in Vermont and she is such a talented, amazing woman.  I love everything she makes.  This pattern was no exception!

My Favorite Quilt!

In June I had the most awesome trip to Vermont where I met up with 21 other special ladies for a sewing retreat.  I still can't believe what a special time it was and I think almost daily about these ladies and what an amazing experience it was for me.  I wrote a blog post about it where I blog for MaryJanesFarm magazine.  You can read all about it there by clicking here. 

But what I'd like to share with you today is the quilt that I worked on while I was in Vermont!
