There is nothing like a good jolt of pretty color to start the day. I'm currently binding a quilt that I made using Trish's pattern. I can't wait to show it to you. Have you seen the latest Romantic Homes? The cover is so gorgeous! You could make a whole quilt using the cover colors as inspiration. I've been able to get a little sewing done this week. I made a valance for the kitchen. I used a decorator fabric that was in my stash (sorry, no name on it) and added trim and a ruffle using Paris Flea Market. A house is being built behind me so my screen is in permanent dirt status until it's finished…a pretty valance makes it so much better! My sewing room is coming along s-l-o-w-l-y. I'm still trying to figure out where everything should go. It is fun to open another box and find pretty retro cake decorating items. Have a blessed day!
Smiles,
Ohhh, I love the cabinets in your sewing room!

ReplyDeleteI love your little quilt. Can you tell me the name of your binding? I got a little piece of that fabric in a grab bag and I would love to see if I can get some more, but I don't know the name of it.
ReplyDeleteI love your valance! I find your blog so inspiring.
One of my favorite magazines.
ReplyDeleteI love your quilt. I love the backing fabric. Where did you get that.
Hi Renee! The backing fabric has been in my stash for a while now. It came from JoAnn Fabrics.
DeletePretty valance and what a happy quilt you are making! Fun vintage goodies!
