blush quilt

ok, last post for today - not sure if this is how you are supposed to 'blog' but i wanted to get everything up to date with what i am working on at the moment!

so - the blush quilt. as mentioned, the fabric is beautiful - i loved it from the first time i saw it. love the big paisley prints.

anyhoo, this is one of those things that snowballed. i bought one charm pack at a local quilt show. then decided that i loved it too much to just put it in the stash. so i started looking for a pattern that i could use it up immediately! i found this one that i loved - 2 charm packs, one yard, plus. so i then HAD to buy another pack, and some blocking fabric (shame!).

but i do like it! and i did some 'chaining' i think its called. very very fast - pieced all squares from 2 charm packs in about a half an hour - awesome!




anyhoo, will post some photos of the blocks once i have them laid out. will have to do that when the little human is asleep too i think :)

pugs and kisses (and zzzzzzzzzzzs's for me now!)
