Cape Ann Baby Quilt

My parents were in town and my mom wanted to choose some fabric and have "us" make a baby quilt (my mom doesn't sew).  I showed her the Cape Ann fabrics by Liesl Gibson I had gotten at sample spree at Spring Quilt Market.  She loved them and we got to work! She picked out a backround fabric (Kona cotton,Loden?), some binding fabric (from 1001 Peeps), and a backing fabric (from Summersault).

I threaded 2 machines and got my mom and my stepdad to piece the strips!

All done!

Piecing like the Seminoles

My friend Tanya is teaching a techniques class at Sew Modern and this is what we learned last week. 
Apparently there are many ways to do Seminole piecing!  It's really quite fun and you can mix it up any way you like.

I think this way would make an awesome guitar strap.

Little A-line

I made this with Dew Drips from Tula's new Frog Prince line, and some ruffle elastic trim by Riley Blake.
