The Collection Identified...

I stole a little studio time yesterday to work on my Love Bird applique' quilt. We had friends join us at our home for dinner, so preparing for their visit and the meal we would be sharing kept me in the kitchen for more of the day. I managed to sew all of the strip sets together, and I'm showing just a few of them to you.

Thank you to Jan (from Bessie Mary )blog for figuring out which Fig Tree fabrics were in my jelly roll. Most of the line is called Dandelion Girl, but there are also elements from the Urban Indigo line, too. I really appreciate that you spent some time online, Jan, and then sent me links so that I could see for myself. Above and beyond, my friend. I really appreciate the effort.

I'm going to have time to play in the studio today, so I'll press all the strip sets I assemble before I cut them into squares, and then triangles. I'll take lots of photos so I can share my day with you tomorrow.

I hope your Sunday is filled with rest, relaxation and time spent doing what you love.

Ella's Etsy Treasury...

I've been featured on Etsy! My Sweet Pea Baby Shoe Pincushion is being featured on Ella's Treasury on Etsy! Ella (dollsandbunnies) contacted me on Thursday night to let me know. Squeeee! Click on the photo to go to Ella's Etsy Treasury. Pretty exciting for me. It's a new first!
I'll be back tomorrow to show you my quilt progress. I still don't know the name of the fabric collection, so I'm going to call this quilt "Love Birds", after the applique' block. They remind me of love birds. What do you think?
There's still time to enter my Vanilla Extract Giveaway, too! Just leave a comment on the Vanilla Extract Tutorial post here to be included. It's that easy!
