This week I finally used the hexi flowers I made last year from a mini charm of #kateandbirdie Return to Winters Lane. Found #aquiltinglife Bouquet pattern to use. The taupe is a #minickandsimpson fabric, the pink is #eyditasitar and the white is #zenchic Spotted. Unfortunately, the taupe color is very hard to photograph and is softer looking in person.I made my first block for my quilt groups Stars My Way BOM. I’ll be adding a pieced center to the blue or tan Star points. I didn’t use a pattern, but did use the #itssewemma foundation paper for the square in a square and it was perfect. Most of the fabric is #minickandsimpson Lexington.I’ve had a good quilty start to the new year. I’ve started a #twocolorchallenge in the Fig Tree and Friends Facebook group. I’m making the Vintage Spools pillow from the book #ascrapbookofquilts. I liked the neutral colors Kimberly, @fatquartershop, used for one of the pillows during the pillow sew along from the book. Fabrics are predominantly #figtreefabric, #sherriandchelsifabric, and a few other #modafabrics designers.Finished the first set of blocks for the Cinnamon Splendor Mystery BOM by #figtreequilts. Now onto Month 2 before Month 3 gets here. Love the #cinnamonandcreamfabric and #figtreestitched fabric.Follow on Pinterest
