Why Hello There!
Yay!–I’m happy to be sharing with you all again today!–That was such a long break, but a much needed one! I had a great Christmas–complete with the required holiday germs—can’t have Christmas without a sick kid! =p Luckily the germs did move out in time for us not to have to miss any of our parties.
Now that the big project I’ve mentioned in passing here and there is getting closer to wrapping up…I’ve got some free time…and things to share with you all…finally!
Last Summer I had the opportunity to work with RJR Fabrics to promote their line of solids. What great solids!–And if you’ve been reading my blog for any length of time you’ll see I picked out some of my favorite “sherbety colors” for my Make it Modern quilt.
I had big intentions of taking this quilt outside this morning to snap some great outdoor shots. So I put on hubbys crocs to hike out into the snow..yes, it was as bad an idea as you are thinking. I got the quilt hung all fancy, got ready to shoot the first picture and my camera battery died. By this time, my feet were wet, I was cold, and I wasn’t going back out after the battery charged. So, you are getting some inside shots. =)
Even darkish indoor pictures can’t disguise Angela’s great quilting! She always does an amazing job! You’ll have to excuse the wrinkles in the quilt…I usually have this quilt folded & hanging like this:
My Make it Modern quilt pattern was published in the December/January 2013 issue of quilt magazine–it even made a tiny corner of the cover. =)
Hope you all have a great weekend–with some great projects!
I’m so glad you are back, I was worried about you!
YAY! I’m always happy to see an update on your blog. And I love the quilt.
Beautiful quilt, I love your choice of colors.
Hello,
I missed your posts, glad you are back! Did you make that lovely cushion with chinese letters?? My sons are chinese……A cushion like that would look great in their rooms
Best wishes from Holland!

So glad to see your posts again! This quilt is beautiful. I never used to like quilts in solids, but more and more have been surfacing and they are growing on me. This one in particular is stunning. Great job!
I love the quilt and the quilting is beautiful. I will have to get myself a copy of that magazine.
Welcome back! Your blog is one of my favorites!

Great quilting. Cute quilt.
Well hello! Welcome back. Glad all is well and how I love the quilting on your modern quilt!
I love what you do! I always enjoy when I see you name in a magazine!
You do such a beautiful job! Thanks for sharing!
Glad to see you back! Missed your blog, but certainly understand needing a rest. Love your block; hope it’s not too late to find the magazine.
Gorgeous quilt, Corey! I love quilts made out of solid fabric. It’s fun to see your red and aqua bee quilt that I contributed a block to in your photo.
I love this sherberty quilt – the quilting is absolutely amazing! Gives it a real 3D effect. Beautiful x
I saw this on Pinterest and I LOVE it! Both you and Angela did such a phenomenal job! Thank you for sharing 🙂
I had that issue of the magazine from the library and that quilt jumped out at me as a possiblity for a new quilt for my daughters bedroom. Then as I’m looking around on my favorite blogs, here it is! Didn’t realize it was your pattern, I really love it-colors and design are fantastic.
I love the colors. I am a fan of bright but those pastels make the quilt!
Saw this wonderful quilt in the Dec/Jan 2013 issue of Quilt Magazine. Will be absolutely perfect for my guest bedroom. But I need to convert the pattern to fit a queen size bed (102″ x 116″). Can you help me? I look forward to hearing from you.
