Sweet Deliveries : :

I just finished up a very special order for the nieces of a friend, three Personalized Pillows and three Secret Garden Crowns that I just had to share. I love seeing them all stacked together!






You can find details for both my pillows and my crowns in my shop. 

From the lovely shop of my Sponsor Moona Fabrics, there was a sweet delivery for me too! Six 1/2 yard cuts from Sarah Jane's Children at Play. I love this fabric! It's an adorable and whimsical fabric collection full of story-book style illustrations of the sweetest childhood memories.


The Balloons in Aqua is my absolute favorite fabric from this bundle, it really inspires the illustrator in me! There are a few others prints from this collection that are on my "must have" list, as well. I'll be using these for my daughter's bedroom, since she loves them too!


I also received a little of Pat Bravo Oval Elements in Crocus and Amethyst, my very favorite shades of purple.

Wishing you some sweetness, too on this beautiful Tuesday!

Sewing News : :

I finally started my Bottled Rainbows Quilt! This is my first quilt block, Ruby Love Birds. I had originally planned on doing my quilt with simple squared up scraps and then had this wonderful idea a couple weeks ago to arrange my pieces with Mandalas in mind.

I will definitely plan my design out before I begin to sew next time -- this time I cut and sewed as I went and realized about half way that I would have preferred to have had a plan, oops. I do love the way the reverse side looks on this!! This is a quilt-as-you-go project, therefor with each block you instantly get that soft, puffy dimension -- LOVE that!

I spent some sewing time recently putting together a little something for our sweet friend Sohia, who just turned four this past weekend. I made her a very special Princess Flower Crown, following some wonderful felt flower tutorials I found via Pinterest. If anyone is interested, I'd be happy to send you the links.

And of course I had to make her a pillow, as well! Once again, Happy Birthday Sophia!!!

Finally, I received my first news from someone to have made my Fabric Lover's Apron!!! Catherine did such an amazing job! I hope she doesn't mind me sharing a photo here -- you can visit her blog to see the full post.

If any of you use my tutorial, please do let me know -- it really made my day!!!

Happy Sewing!
