I have a mixed bag of happenings in the sewing room.
I finished piecing the leftover blue/orange bricks to a flimsy. It measures approximately 48 x 60 before quilting. The nex step is to locate a backing that I like. :)
(I haven't run across this patten with a name - if you know it's name...
please leave a comment.)
EDIT: inspired by Simple Strips from Christa Quilts
Today is binding day for my Tigers quilt. Soon, I will be able to snuggle under it while I watch the games on TV.
I volunteered to make a Fat Quarter Quilt for the FQ Demo at the MelonHeads...next week. Eh gads, I better get on this. :). I decided to use the Villa Rosa Dulcie pattern as it only needed 5 fq's. I don't 'normally' buy fq's but the local quilt shop was having a sale. I found 4 golfing co-ordinates and ordered the 5th online. Here are the fabrics, the 5th is the stripe in the middle. The light blue will be the background and the other two I pulled from stash as possible 'go-with's'.
I started cutting the yardage and fq's. It should go pretty quick.
pattern: Villa Rosa Dulcie
Shaing today with The Inquiring Quilter's Weight Loss Wednesday.

You have some nice projects in the works. I love the blue / orange flimsy.
Such a great variety of projects. I'm more of a stay with it and finish it kinda gal, but I love variety too. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.

That's a fun idea for a fat quarter quilt! I love the golfing theme (because I attempt to play golf, lol!), and that design works really well for showing off the prints. Do you have a book of Villa Rosa Designs, or do you have lots of their cards?
Great use for the FQ fabrics--
