August has been busy... in a good kind of "sewing" way!
I have been having sew much fun helping test some patterns from some of favorite designers! If you follow me on my Instgram, you have seen photos already.* Sew The Rainbow Quilt -a paper pieced dream quilt!
- by Kristy at Quiet Play { here}
Kristy has designed a quilt... that features her popular Geometric Sewing Machine block, and is surround by these sewing goodies... spools, scissors and flying geese!!
This is Kristy's quilt...

I had a plump , unused, fat quarter bundle of Mimosa fabric, by Another Point of View Windham Fabrics, and some pretty blenders ... Basics from Connecting Threads, just waiting to be used! I even had the low volume Line Dried fabric, which would prove to be perfect for the background fabric!
I started getting excited here... (I made the scissors first. The sewing machine was my reward!!)

And then Whiskers began to get excited!!

Be still my heart.... there are Spools and Flying Geese !
 |
| The spools are big enough to let you feature a fabric. Mimosa is a beautiful line!! |
And here is my finished flimsy top!

| Sew The Rainbow quilt by Susie's Sunroom Design by Kristy at Quiet Play available soon! ( early September) |
I had to put the backing construction for this quilt on "pause" for a bit... while working on some other test patterns.
But I have a great idea brewing.....
Come back soon to see progress on my Sew The Rainbow Quilt, and see the other cute projects I have been working on !!
