This is Anniversary Month around here! Andrew and I have been married for 18 years! I am now 61! The Waterwheel House Quilt Shop is 3! This should be an amazing decade!
Now for some new stuff...look what I made!
I could not resist this bag on the cover of this wonderful book, "EveryDay Handmade" by Cassie Barden and Adrienne Smitke. We have all the makin's for this little tote. Buttons to cover...check, 100% natural Linen Fabric...check, gorgeous bright fabric scraps...check, "leather" bag handles...check, Decor Bond stabilizer...check, white perle cotton, check...! The most fun was covering the buttons!
I used Ty Pennington's latest fabric line from Free Spirit to make this lap size "PDQ" quilt. (Pattern is from Swirly Girls)
This shot shows the straight line quilting a bit.
New Fabric just in... Summerville from Moda. We have the whole collection in fat quarters and several bolts. It is just so darn cute! We will mix with Kona Solids in Orange, Green, Red , Gray, White and Turquoise.
Makes me want to get my fabric markers out and color.
The orange and the red! This will be my next quilt!
Great "Tourist Tote Bag" class today. 5 lovely ladies made 5 beautiful bags!
Everyone finished their bag! Watch for another tote bag class coming up in May.
We have lots of new "Easy Peasy" table runner kits available for $15. This one uses the "Parson Gray" line by David Butler for Free Spirit.
We love our strawberries here at the WWHQS!
Philip Jacob's fabric makes a lovely runner.
Palladium by "Dear Stella" fabrics. Yum! You can call to order any Easy Peasy Kit.
Well, gotta run! I need to get crack'n on the new Class Calendars for May and June. Funny, those are our kitties names, May and June! This is May and this is ...
Hope to see you soon!
