Glace'

If you sew or love fabrics, you have probably heard of the company Moda.  I am in love with Moda fabrics.  Specifically with anything that is designed by 3 Sisters.  I usually buy yards and bundles of each of their lines.  Their Christmas line this last year was called Glace'.  I fell in love all over again.  What I love most about this line is that it doesn't scream Christmas.

The week after Christmas it went on sale for 50% off.  So of course I went and loaded up on yardage and layer cakes.  The next day it went on sale for 70% off.  I went back for more.  (Could this be why my husband thinks I have an addiction?)  Needless to say, I have a lot of quilts to create using this line.

Here are two that I'm currently working on.  Both are patterns from Crazy Old Ladies.


This pattern is called Stack of Three.  It takes a layer cake and a little yardage for the border.  I cut and had these blogs sewn in about an hour.  This is a really fast cute pattern!


Here is an idea of what it will look like once its sewn together.


The picture above is strips from a jelly roll sewn together.  I will be cutting this one up to make the pattern Postage Due.

Both of these patterns use Moda precuts and go together quickly.

I'll post my pictures as I progress with them.  I took the weekend off from these do work on a copy of quilts out of the Verna line by Kate Spain for Moda.  Can't wait to show you those!

I bought a fat quarter bundle of Glace and pet it everyday! Two great patterns for this line of fabric, but I am particularly interested in seeing Postage Due done in these fabrics, I think it will be stunning.

Good Luck with both projects!
