Lily Scrappy Double Irish Chain

Hey there! Today is my stop on a fun blog tour showcasing the Lily fabric line by Sue Penn for Penny Rose Fabrics.

It's such a pretty line with different shades of mint, pink and yellow with subtle hints of grey and red. It's light and fresh. Such a fun palette to be working with as winter is ending and spring begins.

I decided to make a scrappy looking Double Irish Chain with Lily. This was just a quick shot I took after I had made and cut strip sets.

The more I worked with this fabric the more I loved it! I still have to quilt it.

I plan on making another twin size just like it and giving them to my 2 youngest girls. I just love the colors and pattern together.

It's such a sweet mixture of polka dots, plaids, and florals. Lily is available this month. I'll be sure to share my finished quilts with you! I'm hoping to do some pretty quilting in that negative space on the alternate blocks. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Sewing!

Simple Placemats

Hello! Today I wanted to share with you these cute placemats I made using by Annie Soft and Stable Project Pack.
The pattern is inside the package. It's a sew as you go pattern. They were so quick to sew up!
Fat Quarter Shop has a video tutorial HERE.

I used some strips of Gooseberry fabric for mine. I love how they turned out. I had to take a quick picture with my vintage Gooseberry Pyrex. That makes me pretty happy!
Hope you have a lovely weekend!

Happy Sewing!
