I recently picked up these Dear Stella confetti fabrics and I'm in love. I think they would look great together for a valentines day project. But let's be honest, if I start one now, it won't be ready until next valentines day :) (from left) Mini Confetti Grey Confetti Dot Shell Mini Confetti Mint Confetti Sparkle White (Metallic) Confetti Dot Coral Tomorrow I will have a fun valentines printable to share!

Sunday Stash | 03
I am still adjusting to my new life out in the country. I really don't get cell service. I drive 45 minutes away once a week for groceries. The most exciting thing that happened today is that I saw two coyotes. It is weird that this is my life. But I'm loving it for the most part. I do a majority of my fabric shopping online, so it was a treat to go the closest "big" city (over an hour away) last month in search of fabric. At the end of my shopping day, I wandered into a weird building full … [Read more...]
Sunday Stash | 02
This week I stashed a few basics. I'm really making an effort to get more of these types of fabrics because I realized they are my favorite thing to sew with. I'm basically obsessed with essex yarn dyed linen/cotton so I was super excited to get to see the denim-blue in person. It doesn't disappoint. I am thinking about backing the barn door quilt in it. I also got a tiny piece of the Briar Rose strawberries because they are just too cute. I imagine this sneaking in to a baby girl's quilt in the … [Read more...]
Sunday Stash | 01
I'm excited to be linking up to the Sunday Stash for the first time! Last week I found out I won a giveaway for fabric from Pink Chalk Fabrics (Thanks to them and Kitchen Table Quilting!). I have no patience, so I picked out fabrics right away! Since Pink Chalk is located in my home state of WA, I had the fabric in my hands two days later (wahoo!)! I have been really wanting to add some more solids to my stash and a fun way to do it is with Pink Chalk's solid scrap packs. It's funny because … [Read more...]
Life Assorted
Hola friendos! The last two weeks have been a complete blur and I've totally missed reading about everyone's projects. But I'll catch up, promise! While I catch up on my blog reads, here's a little of what I've been up to... We recently returned from a trip to Glacier National Park. Holy smokes, this place is gorgeous. We hiked 24 miles in two days and my feet are still angry. More excuse to sit down and sew :) What could be better than working on my EPP project at a campground in the park? I … [Read more...]
Exposed! My Current Stash
I just started following a super fun quilting blog called Sarah Quilts. She posted pics of her fabric stash and asked others to join in. "You show me yours, I'll show you mine"! I pulled everything out of the back of my closet and although I see it every day when grabbing clothes, it just seems bigger all out there in the open. This is hopefully the biggest my stash will be. I know it doesn't look like much, but I live and work in under 200 square feet and my fabric stash currently takes up … [Read more...]
