I have the greatest mom and I was blessed with the greatest mother in law.

So today we will start with a few quilts I've worked on over the last few months. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First up is Kristin's Christmas Scrappy quilt - LOVE how the blue makes it look like an Irish Chain quilt. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She chose Sprigs of Holly for her quilting. This is a newer pattern and I love it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Judy made this cute table topper and now I need one!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We used posies for the quilting - and it turned out so cute. I'm wondering how this would work out of mini charms!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Marsha made this beautiful floral quilt - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the black prints in this quilt!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She picked 30s Flower for the quilting. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-veVRx7lWTxA/VFqJII5eyCI/AAAAAAAAGWU/VhbUSIBmkSY/s1600/IMG_6572.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-veVRx7lWTxA/VFqJII5eyCI/AAAAAAAAGWU/VhbUSIBmkSY/s1600/IMG_6572.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Doesn't it look pretty on the minky!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fSiz3qkUcNg/VFqJI1ZWxoI/AAAAAAAAGWc/FOw5IIXe3a0/s1600/IMG_6573.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fSiz3qkUcNg/VFqJI1ZWxoI/AAAAAAAAGWc/FOw5IIXe3a0/s1600/IMG_6573.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is Becca's sampler quilt - I loved looking at all the blocks as I quilted. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GpxSOc9SAuk/VFqJIlsgDrI/AAAAAAAAGWY/oXMGWpc3YH0/s1600/IMG_6574.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GpxSOc9SAuk/VFqJIlsgDrI/AAAAAAAAGWY/oXMGWpc3YH0/s1600/IMG_6574.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She chose flirtatious. I have to say this is one of my favorite patterns to add texture. It always looks great without over taking the quilt pattern or fabrics. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-werdfxzgo_k/VFqJJXOmGeI/AAAAAAAAGWk/Yk2t_E2K9zM/s1600/IMG_6575.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-werdfxzgo_k/VFqJJXOmGeI/AAAAAAAAGWk/Yk2t_E2K9zM/s1600/IMG_6575.jpg" height="291" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can't see very well - as it was a BRIGHT day when I was taking this pictures, but she had a big block on her backing with all of the names of the blocks stitched on it. Such a cute idea for a sampler quilt!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vcICfNzbxvo/VFqJLWxizgI/AAAAAAAAGXE/7RJJITxyRCc/s1600/IMG_6578.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vcICfNzbxvo/VFqJLWxizgI/AAAAAAAAGXE/7RJJITxyRCc/s1600/IMG_6578.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Love the white background.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4ErUP4PiBJU/VFqJLxlVpdI/AAAAAAAAGXI/gAaqsr-nrN0/s1600/IMG_6580.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4ErUP4PiBJU/VFqJLxlVpdI/AAAAAAAAGXI/gAaqsr-nrN0/s1600/IMG_6580.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She chose popcorn for the quilting which looked fun on the solid backing too!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Red Letter Day - oh I've missed you. This is a sample quilt for Quiltique in Las Vegas.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NJsM2QpQa88/VFqJNNLu2DI/AAAAAAAAGXc/VyI61tnFjvw/s1600/IMG_6582.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NJsM2QpQa88/VFqJNNLu2DI/AAAAAAAAGXc/VyI61tnFjvw/s1600/IMG_6582.jpg" height="260" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They have it kitted up and ready to make just like the original. We used the cable pattern - I mean how could you not? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qsa75pjKGyg/VFqJNeiyS7I/AAAAAAAAGXg/WJ_x-YxobKk/s1600/IMG_6583.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qsa75pjKGyg/VFqJNeiyS7I/AAAAAAAAGXg/WJ_x-YxobKk/s1600/IMG_6583.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Liz brought me this fun zig zag quilt - I don't know the name of the pattern - but a sample was hanging up at Pine Needles here locally so I've had a few cross my path. I've loved every one!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-F0Im6LzcfaM/VFqJOr06nnI/AAAAAAAAGX4/tsS7D0GCkL8/s1600/IMG_6585.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-F0Im6LzcfaM/VFqJOr06nnI/AAAAAAAAGX4/tsS7D0GCkL8/s1600/IMG_6585.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--DaFOzdBins/VFqJPDN-hEI/AAAAAAAAGX8/m2oD80OF2EY/s1600/IMG_6586.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--DaFOzdBins/VFqJPDN-hEI/AAAAAAAAGX8/m2oD80OF2EY/s1600/IMG_6586.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>

Liz's other quilt was this cute simple square quilt for her granddaughter. I loved the fun bright colors and the geometric border - I need some of this fabric!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is a quilt/table runner combo. By adding a runner to the bottom of her quilt Kathy didn't have to pay the minimum quilting rate - GREAT IDEA!</div>

Its late Sunday night (Monday morning) and I have to leave on a business trip in the morning. I've done this before - many times, but the whole week being gone doesn't happen often. I never thought having kids would change me so much. I never thought being away from them for a few days would fill me with so much anxiety. I never thought I'd be such a homebody! </div>

This time of year - with school starting, getting back into a routine and a schedule - I think of all the things I want for my kids. How can I help them grow? How do I teach them what is important in life. How do I teach Sam the sounds of the letters! How do I find more time to read to Jake. I find myself picking between reading to him, having him read to me, taking a shower - why can't I find the time to fit it all in? How do I find a way to balance work, quilting, house work, homework, being a decent wife, and mother? I know this is the universal question we all ask and hope to achieve. </div>

My goal or word this year was balance. A few months ago I changed jobs. I had been at my old place of business for 18 years - half my life. It was a hard decision to leave - even when I wasn't happy - it was life changing. But I've moved to another company that gives me the opportunity to work from home daily - and gives me a better work/home balance and I haven't looked back or regretted the decision once. This summer I have tried to spend more time outside with the kids. The sun does us all good! But as a mother - you always worry about what you're not doing. I haven't worked with them enough over the summer. What are they forgetting? Are they in enough activities? Are they getting enough attention? </div>

My red bull ramblings for the night....my friend takes ambien and then sews and texts me and doesn't remember much in the morning - I have a feeling I'll feel the same about this in the morning! By the time this posts - I'll be on my way home. My kids will have had a wonderful week with Disneyland Dad, and grandma's that spoil them with attention. And all my worrying and anxiety will have been for nothing. But boy do I hate not seeing these cute little faces EVERY day. </div>

Right now, I'm a little obsessed with this <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430566134947/">quilting design</a>. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

When I first downloaded this design - I didn't think much of it. It was from a Gammill release - free - didn't really enter my mind to start using it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then <a href="http://hyacinthquiltdesigns.blogspot.com/">Cindy</a> decided she wanted it on this quilt. Leave it to Cindy - I have followed her blog for years and her taste in fabric and patterns is like no other. Every quilt she makes is amazing. And every quilt she makes I want to copy! She has an eye like no other and I'm always amazed at how perfect her quilts turn out. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She sent me this quilt - I have to be honest, I've seen this pattern out there, and it isn't one I had to make. I like it, but I'm ok without making it. </div>

BOY WAS I WRONG! Again - leave it to Cindy to know exactly what this quilt needed. The whole time I was quilting this I stared at it. I loved the quilt pattern - the solid plus signs that stand out - the way the Wave design adds movement. I loved everything about this quilt. I threw a picture up on Instagram and everyone else loved it too! </div>

Thanks Cindy for introducing me to this design - I LOVE IT - I push it on people like a drug now because I think it looks so good on everything! When I grow up I want to have an eye like Cindy and be able to make amazing quilts! Thanks!</div>

They are great!). She made her's out of April Showers and I knew I had to make one just like it!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I started cutting 3 - yes 3 - Halloween, Christmas, and April Showers. I love this pattern. Takes 1 jelly roll and some yardage for borders. I made a scrappy one a month or two back for my sister and didn't add borders. Its a great fast quilt if you need a gift too!<br />
<br />

Out of the 3 I have my April Shower's quilt sewn, quilted and bound. Eerie is close behind.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And used my favorite navy polka dot for the big big border! Add a little stripe binding (I LOVE all these stripes from April Showers)</div>

Christine brought me this Scrumptious quilt which she almost didn't get back. Can I just say - I like this line when it came out, but it wasn't my favorite. After quilt 10 - 20 quilts in this line - I now have to make 10 -20 quilts and it is one of my MOST favorite lines. I love EVERYTHING out of this line!<br />

Sherri - brought me 8 of these quilts - YES 8. She makes these for all the girls on the Brighton Drill team? Dance team? I can't remember which one - but they are the cutest t-shirt quilts I've seen! I have another one on my machine as we type. </div>

She does the backs all in a stripe fashion which is like a reversible quilt which I love! She chose <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430563271385/">Posies 2</a> and it looks great on this quilt (I think we've done like 15 now - and it still looks great!)<br />

Kathy brought me a batch of quilts and told me to quilt whatever I wanted. This usually stresses me out a bit - but I've been quilting a lot of Kathy's quilts over the years and I know her fairly well which made it so much fun!<br />

If you have seen any pictures from Spring Market - you had to have seen this amazing Modern Block quilt - made by the team at Moda. It uses all Bella Solid fabrics and is amazing! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eEtIkDwLnHQ/U8NGV_XdJ-I/AAAAAAAAGKI/OLLq1h1-hvU/s1600/modern+quilt+block.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eEtIkDwLnHQ/U8NGV_XdJ-I/AAAAAAAAGKI/OLLq1h1-hvU/s1600/modern+quilt+block.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>

I am horrible at BOM clubs. I have several - all the blocks and not one has been completed. I love the idea, but I never follow through very well. When I saw this I knew I had to change that. I love this quilt and love the blocks. What a fun, different combo from what I'm usually use to. I love how there are big blocks and small blocks. I love the solids - and it is a little out of my comfort zone which we all need to do now and then!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I quickly ordered up some kits. I don't have many to go around - and I'm sure there will be Quilt Alongs (a few of us have even talked about putting one together) - so if you're at all interested get your quilt while you can! I heard these babies flew at market! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am offering the kit at a discounted price of $135 (retail is $150). If you are interested - and would like to preorder to ensure you get one - I require a $25 non-refundable deposit. I send the invoice through my Quick Books program or Paypal if requested- and the balance must be paid before I ship the kit (obviously). You can make payments (whatever amount you choose and when) or you can pay the rest in a lump sum. I have been told they will ship in September - not sure if its beginning or end - but I'll email you and let you know as soon as they are on their way. </div>

<br />
So in honor of trying to shed some pounds and become an healthier me - I should probably start with a better diet. I'm not a big dieter - I need to take the coke out - but other then that I'm starting with eating at home - which always makes me eat a little healthier and I control my portions. So these meals may needs seem healthier - but they are better than a cheeseburger!<br />
<br />
Monday - Pesto Chicken, fruit, and salad<br />
Tuesday - <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430564150926/">French Dip Croissants </a><br />
Wednesday - <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430565060574/">Chicken Tortilla Stack</a><br />
Thursday - BBQ chicken on rolls<br />
Friday - Tuna Melts<br />
<br />
Also need to use what I have on hand! <br />
<br />
Hope you all have a good week.

(look up #roundandroundalong for some serious inspiration)<br />

I was lucky enough to quilt up Thelmas <a href="http://www.cupcakesndaisies.com/search/label/Round%20%26%20Round">Round and Round</a> last year. She used Kate Spain fabrics and it was one of my favorites that crossed my steps. </div>

This next HUGE king sized quilt was done by Peggy and she wanted <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430565277628/">Chantilly Lace</a>. It took a long time - but was worth it in the end. Love this pattern!</div>

I love this line - and each year I always wish I had been more on the ball so I could give people a cute Christmas quilt December 1st to welcome in the season. I'm never on top of my game - until this year! So I'm taking this bundle of 40 fat quarters - and making multiple quilts to get the best bang for my buck out of this bundle! </div>

I know its early - I've had Christmas fabric coming and selling since February - and it is SO early. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Yi2xOWJviPk/U7JJtcmC9iI/AAAAAAAAGGQ/Q0vXWLrsITo/s1600/IMG_3942.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Yi2xOWJviPk/U7JJtcmC9iI/AAAAAAAAGGQ/Q0vXWLrsITo/s1600/IMG_3942.jpg" height="243" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
But - I also remember how I felt last year during the holidays - my bucket list of 20 things to do with the kids in the month of December.... 2 got done. I was tired and a little depressed the whole month of December. My heart wasn't in it, which makes me sad because normally I love Christmas. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7SY-ij1nYJw/U7JJyjylK5I/AAAAAAAAGG8/SDZ-7SlcH8Q/s1600/IMG_4002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7SY-ij1nYJw/U7JJyjylK5I/AAAAAAAAGG8/SDZ-7SlcH8Q/s1600/IMG_4002.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
So this year - I'm urging everyone to think of Christmas early. Get those projects going. I always have a list a mile long of quilts I want to make people and I never get to them - so I will be sewing right along with you the whole month of July. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t2Kfwrt5-jA/U7JJxZAM1kI/AAAAAAAAGGk/xgi8PvHJTGQ/s1600/IMG_2155.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t2Kfwrt5-jA/U7JJxZAM1kI/AAAAAAAAGGk/xgi8PvHJTGQ/s1600/IMG_2155.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
To help motivate you all to finish up some WIPs - I am having a Christmas in July Quilt Sale - meaning All Christmas patterns (snowflakes, candy canes, holly, bells, anything with Christmas in the title) will be on sale for $.01 per inch the whole month of July. This is big - as a lot of those popular Christmas patterns are detailed and dense - and are some of the highest priced patterns I have - so take advantage. ON TOP of the pattern sale - if you have a quilt in a Christmas pattern or Christmas material - and you aren't feeling a Christmas pattern - you too can chose any pattern you want for the $.01 per inch special.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NmIU7sIWixI/U7JJxHboqLI/AAAAAAAAGGg/SYXi5LxMNLk/s1600/IMG_3100.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NmIU7sIWixI/U7JJxHboqLI/AAAAAAAAGGg/SYXi5LxMNLk/s1600/IMG_3100.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Here is the catch - I have to receive the quilt between July 1st - 31st. I am currently running around 4 weeks out - and from what I've seen on Instagram I'm thinking I will get a fair amount of quilts - so this may put me into an 8 week or so turnaround. So keep that in mind - and send what you have as early as possible. Patterns are EDGE to EDGE designs only. No special trims/borders etc available with this sale. No rush orders will be accepted as part of the sale either.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g0DZ7JSYWhY/U7JJy8jnmcI/AAAAAAAAGG4/2-AgxDB6Nes/s1600/IMG_4987.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g0DZ7JSYWhY/U7JJy8jnmcI/AAAAAAAAGG4/2-AgxDB6Nes/s1600/IMG_4987.jpg" height="266" width="400" /></a></div>
So pull out your WIPs, grab a Christmas project/quilt/bundle and get going. You have a month! Check back as I will be sharing the projects I am going to be working on - I have 6 (ouch) that I need to whip through this month. I'm also going to be offering up some kits and a fun Fat Quarter Challenge in the next week - so stay tuned! We are only 177 days until Christmas. If you start working on projects - post them to instagram using #christmasinjulyalong fun inspiration!<br />

But this week I'm starting a new life - I worked out - I've eaten well - and I'm going to try to cook a few meals at home.... what a concept. Mike asked me a week or two ago if my goal was to eat out every single night.... why yes - yes it was! <br />
<br />
I'm almost at 10,000 steps today and will for sure get there by the end of the night - so here's to a good start!<br />
<br />
Monday - Tortellini w/Caesar salad<br />
Tuesday - Turkey meatball and Pineapple skewers (real easy - meatballs from costco -marinate in teriyaki sauce w/pineapple and grill<br />
Wednesday - Steak, salad, and fruit<br />
Thursday - Boys fend for themselves - I've got a shower<br />
Friday - <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/227431849906581692/">Pesto Chicken</a> and fruit<br />
Saturday - another shower - whats going on?<br />
<br />
My goal is 10,000 steps a day - which I usually can't do without a little workout - so hopefully that will keep me motivated!<br />
<br />

If you follow me at all - you know I've been totally obsessed with the Baby Love pattern from Camille Roskelley's <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/simply-retro-fresh-quilts-from-classic-blocks">Simply Retro book</a>. This is my 3rd quilt made out of this pattern - and it won't be my last. I love how big the block is (wouldn't a quilt of these big blocks be SOOOO cool?) I love how fast it goes together - and I love that its the perfect size for a baby quilt/gift.</div>

I'm also obsessed with April Showers by Bonnie and Camille - so I chose this 3rd installment of this pattern to use their fabrics. I went with the cute umbrellas for the middle, the green grass bella solid for the border and the to die for should have bought more of the navy polka dot for the corner hst. Topped it off with the red stripe binding and I was good to go! I love how it turned out. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a new design for the <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/abbylat/long-arm-quilt-patterns/">quilting</a> a basket weave which I'm still perfecting a bit! But I really love how it all turned out - now just to decide who should get it....</div>

So much inspiration! <br />
<br />
Do you have favorites you saw? I'm getting ready to place an order - so let me know if you HAVE TO HAVE something. <br />
<br />
Today's client quilt parade will be the quilts I was lucky enough to work on for some of the designers for market. So much fun to get to see these beautiful fabrics in advance! <br />
<br />
First up are a few quilts by Vanessa from <a href="http://lellaboutique.bigcartel.com/">Lella Boutique</a> She has an AWESOME new line coming out called Into the Woods that you're gonna love. I've shown these quilts before, but wanted to share a few pics. It was so much fun to see pictures these hanging up in her cute booth! <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We used the ever popular <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430565277632/">Orange Peel</a> on this cute <a href="http://lellaboutique.bigcartel.com/product/125-cartwheel-pdf-pattern">Cartwheel</a> quilt. I love the pink and red mix fabric she used on the back!</div>

Next up is <a href="http://lellaboutique.bigcartel.com/product/117-snow-blossoms-pdf-pattern">Snow Blossoms</a> which has on been on my to do list forever! I finally pulled fabrics this week to get working on mine. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We went with the ever classic <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430563693148/">Baptist Fan</a>. Love how this quilt turned out. I may have to use my own bundle of this line and copy this quilt. </div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This last quilt from Vanessa is for a layer cake star pattern that was featured during Schoolhouse at Market. If you google Quilt Market Schoolhouse you will see a few of the designers with these quilts - fun that they all turned out so different! Vanessa made a Mini Charm, Charm, AND a Layer Cake version and they are all different! I'm going to have to keep rewatching to figure out which one I want to make. I'm thinking a Christmas BIG star is would be just perfect!</div>

I wanted to do something fun and different on this quilt - so sent over some ideas and Vanessa picked this fun bread basket design - its so new I don't have it listed yet! I will soon. See how cool it looks on the back! Thanks <a href="http://www.quilthollow.com/">Mary</a> for showing me this design! I'm sure it will be one we are both using a lot!</div>

The quilting pattern used is called <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430566134514/">Circles and Lines.</a> I was a little worried about using this one - I mean it was a new to me pattern. This is a new line - going to be at Market - in the Moda Designer booth, first time customer! So many reasons not to pick this one! I played around with 2 other designs and laid them out - and then just went with this one. I'm SOOOOOO glad I did - I LOVE how it turned out!</div>

I think this pattern is fun and modern - adds great texture without overwhelming the fabrics. Its a keeper! And the floral backing was so cute! </div>

I was also lucky enough to work on the Schoolhouse star for Basic Grey. Funny thing is - I had quilted Vanessa's and the next day quilted this one - I had NO idea they were the same pattern. I emailed Vanessa and made mention of the star design and she explained the Schoolhouse idea - and I was like duh! How did I not see it? BUT that is what I LOVED about seeing the different designers with their quilts. They all look so different using the same pattern!</div>

I used another new to me design called <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430566134247/">Forever Flower</a> and I love how it turned out. This flower is big and kind of a more modern feel to it. I'm really loving it.</div>

Let me just tell you about the grunge in this line. You can't see it here - but there is a taupey feel to it I will be buying BOLTS of this. Such a great, warm background. They used it in all 3 quilts and it was amazing to look at! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last but not least - was this beautiful quilt by <a href="http://missrosiesquiltco.bigcartel.com/">Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's Quilt Co</a>. I have to say every time I quilt for Carrie I shake a little during the process. I mean - she is the QUEEN of QUILTING. I am honored and pinch myself a little when she sends me a quilt. </div>

This pattern is called Sugarboo and is one of her big quilts she introduced at market. First off - can't believe how many patterns she has releasing! I want to make them all! If you haven't seen them - RUN to her instagram account and take a look. (Carrieandrosie) </div>

Most of the fabrics in this quilt were from Color Me Happy, but she has some others thrown in too. I love how she had her cornerstones random every other row - and she threw in a few different blocks with different sashing colors. </div>

I love the little flower that was fussy cut in the center! Everytime I work on a quilt from Carrie I learn to come out of my box a little when sewing. Who would have through throwing in a aqua and pink sashing so randomly in the middle of white would turn out so cute? I don't think I would have a) ever thought of it and b) been brave enough to pull it off! Which is why she is totally the queen!</div>

She chose <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430565302749/">Clamshells</a> - which is perfect on most any quilt! These pictures are horrible - I think it was getting dark? Or really bright? haha I can't remember - but they don't do this quilt justice. It was stunning. I love the backing fabric she used also. <br />

I am blown away by the inspiration that is out there. It was so fun to see the new patterns and fabric coming out this year. I am so grateful I was able to be a small part in this industry I love so much. Now I just want to take a week off and sew......</div>

She had a couple of choices of the quilting - and I picked <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430563692974/">Argyle</a> the texture is wonderful with this pattern. and it kind of gives it a cross hatched look! I loved watching this quilt come to life!</div>

This last quilt immediately went on my to do list once I saw it in person. And Dana is so lucky it got returned to her. I wanted to keep it so bad! The pattern is Vintage from Camille Roskelley's <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/simply-retro-fresh-quilts-from-classic-blocks">Simply Retro book</a> (if you don't have this book yet - RUN out and get it.

If you follow me on <a href="http://instagram.com/alatimer">Instagram</a> you may have seen how obsessed I am with the Baby Love pattern from Camille Roskelley's <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/simply-retro-fresh-quilts-from-classic-blocks">Simply Retro</a> book. I love this pattern for so many reasons. Love a Churn Dash block - its big and fast. I need a quick project that I can completely to keep me sane - and this quilt can be completed in about an hour. I love the big center for using a fun print I have a hard time cutting into. Its the perfect size for a baby quilt and a great baby gift. You will see MANY more of these in my future - as I've already completed another one - and have a 3rd on cut and ready to sew together. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm also a little obsessed with the Country Girls fabric - I'm loving the greens and blues together - but for a girl! Can't get enough of it!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

I LOVE the white <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/176286699/country-girls-by-riley-blake-designs?ref=shop_home_active_24">blueberry fabric</a> that I used for the background. At first I was worried it would be too busy - but I thrilled with how it turned out. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a baby baby clamshell (maybe 1/2 inch by an inch) which added some great texture! I love the cute <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/176276178/country-girls-by-riley-blake-designs?ref=shop_home_active_2">little girls</a> in the center print- and I'm slightly obsessed with the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/176286539/country-girls-by-riley-blake-designs?ref=shop_home_active_1">bright green border</a> fabric next to the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/176276896/riley-blake-designs-small-navy-gingham?ref=shop_home_active_6">navy gingham</a>! </div>

I've quilted a few quilts for Nicole in the last few months (babydoxie on instagram - follow her you won't be sorry!) She is one of the nicest people I've never met and I love all of her quilts! She is also very easy to work with and patient with me beyond words! Here are a few from her first batch I did a few weeks ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First up is her <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/swoon-pattern-142-pdf-pattern">swoon</a> quilt - which I LOVE the big red square in the middle. What a great way to set apart your swoon from the next!</div>

She chose the <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430563693148/">Baptist Fan</a> - saying its kind of manditory for a swoon quilt. HAHA </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was done using a Marmalade quilt kit (I think my most favorite Bonnie and Camille line if you can have favorites) I think she scored this kit from an Insta sell Camille had - cause she's lightening fast on Instagram!</div>

She used <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430563621661/">CandyLand</a> for the quilting - which was perfect for this quilt. For her backing she pulled together 4 big squares of flannel - which I loved! I always think I need to be more adventurous with my backings when I see these! </div>

Her next quilt was Vintage for the <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/simply-retro-fresh-quilts-from-classic-blocks">Simply Retro</a> book. This is one of my most favorite patterns right now - and there is a quilt along going on on Instagram right now if you want to jump on the bandwagon. #vintagealong</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She chose <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430565277599/">Starlight</a> for the quilting which is one of my favorite patterns. Adds such great texture without taking away from the blocks or fabrics. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think most the fabrics are from Bonnie and Camille's Ruby collection. (Are you getting the sense that Nicole is a die hard Bonnie and Camille fan? If so you'd be right! She has the greatest stash of fabrics EVER!)</div>

Next up are a few of <a href="http://www.cupcakesndaisies.com/">Thelma's </a>quilts. It is always so much fun to get Thelma's quilts - her packaging is perfect - her backs of the quilts are perfect - I kind of treat them like glass as her sewing is AMAZINGLY perfect!</div>

First up is <a href="http://www.missrosiesquiltco.bigcartel.com/product/jersey-girl-pdf-no-478">Jersey Girl </a>- a Schnibbles pattern by the great Carrie Nelson of <a href="http://www.missrosiesquiltco.com/Whats_New.html">Miss Rosie's Quilts</a> done in Scrumptious by Bonnie and Camille. Let me tell you something about Scrumptious - I liked it when it came out - but I thought - this is a line I don't have to buy. And then I started seeing quilt after quilt done in this line - how could I have not thought that I didn't need it? I mean - EVERY quilt that comes my way out of this line is my new favorite and added to my list! Needless to say - I now have about 4 quilts in the works out of this line. </div>

Thelma chose <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430563621661/">CandyLand</a> for this quilt - which fits its wonderfully. I LOVED her solid scrappy baby bias border - added SO much to this quilt! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Her backing was scrappy which was cute and fun - and I fell head over heels in love with this big button/flower print. Now I'm a proud owner of a bolt - won't it be great for backing a few of my Scrumptious quilts! haha</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Her next quilt was <a href="http://www.missrosiesquiltco.bigcartel.com/product/canasta-pdf-no-472">Canasta</a> another Schnibbles pattern. I've wanted to make a basket quilt for awhile now - and loved this one! She used Fig Tree fabric. </div>

Thelma chose <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430565277628/">Chantilly Lace</a> for the quilting pattern. I almost screamed when she picked this pattern. I had sent over a few suggestions and this was my first pick. I think it just has that timeless old fashion feel that a basket pattern needs - so I was thrilled when it was her first chose also!</div>

The lighting was not great on this day - but hopefully you can see - this pattern adds such great texture! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She also used a scrappy backing! </div>

Thelma's last quilt is <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/round-round-pattern-156-pdf-pattern">Round and Round</a> by Thimble Blossoms in Kate Spain's Christmas line from last year. I'm thinking I need to copy this using <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/182204751/solstice-charm-pack-by-kate-spain?ref=shop_home_active_18">Solstice </a> by Kate Spain - her Christmas line for this year. </div>

If you missed this quilt along last winter with round and round on Instagram run and take a look. #roundandroundalong</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was so much fun to see all the cute quilts that came out of this! I started my own Christmas version last year - need to get it finished up so I can start my next one! This is a great pattern for charm packs (you need 2) and one block is big enough to make good sized table topper or pillow too - saw a few of those during the quilt along and have some ideas for Christmas gifts this year! </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thelma chose <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/159033430564301060/">Christmas Snow </a>as her quilting pattern. This pattern is so cool with cool textures are the snowflakes are all different shapes and sizes!</div>
