STARTING A QUILT WITH BLUSH

I couldn't stand it any longer! I decided to make a quilt with Blush fabric from our shop. The colors are perfect for an applique quilt. I use this drafting ruler to make circles for berries, centers of blocks, etc. It's awesome! I'll be using the white dot fabric for the background of my floral blocks. I'll keep you updated and I hope you'll tell me what you think. Happiness is starting a new project!

THE BELLA BAG - COMING SOON!


The Bella Bag by Heather Mulder Peterson for Anka's Treasures is coming to the shop in the next week or so! We love the big grommets and the shape of this versatile bag! Bev found a source for the grommets and they don't require any special equipment to install so this should be a really fun project. We will offer the grommets for sale also. How fun!
