Recently I got the chance to work with some of the upcoming French General collection, Petite Odile. I'm doing a home decorating tutorial for the bake shop and these were my leftovers. It's not normally the colors I sew with, but I loved sewing with it and have loved living with it. My decorating style is "cocoon" (not the movie about old people, just coziness and warm colors).
I don't know why but the quilt fabric I go for is usually much more child-like and quaint. This looks so great in my house. I love the little details of children, buttons, redwork, and letters on the fabric...all things that speak to me.
That binding fabric is to die for. I want to wallpaper my house in it. For now I have to settle for curtains and a table runner!
Very pretty pattern. I like the stars it is making....reminds me of a Friendship Star. It would make a fun commemorative quilt pattern....you could gather signatures on the white bits.
ReplyDeleteYour table runner is adorable!
ReplyDeleteLovely runner!
ReplyDeleteI love it...and I love mini's. I do. I just LOVE mini's!
ReplyDeleteYour stipple on your table runner looks good. I think you are getting this free motion quilting down. Look so pretty on your table.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary
ReplyDeleteI have been looking at this line wondering whether to buy as it is not my usual colours(being an AJ fanatic) but I may give a Jelly Roll a whirl
