Wonky Log Summer Quilt

Recently found a great tutorial on a wonky log cabin block and decided to give it a try!

I decided not to go as wonky as quilt dad BUT I really loved the look of it! I am really loving this pattern though so I thought I'd give an update on how its going! Let me know what you think! :)




Here are my beginning fabrics pre-cut! :)

latest quilty projects

I feel like I have a thousand quilt projects started and haven't got any finished lately! I started my circle applique quilt like forever ago and just got the basting done on it! I then started my black and white coin stack quilt which I only have 2 rows to finish! ALSO, I have been collecting vintage fabric pieces from various auctions and garage sales around to do my mini vintage quilt. These are only a few of my quilt projects started but they are the ones I've been playing around with recently! :) So enjoy!


Here is my first applique quilt, dont look too close, there are lots of mistakes ;)



This black and white quilt I am loving so far, I am debating on topping it off with some red binding and quilting...what do you think?



Here are my vintage fabrics! I am really liking all these fabrics. I separated them out by colors and am going to do something with that. They are 2'' squares, and I think Im going to do a mini quilt with this one. I might give a way the left overs to a reader, so be on the look out! :)

the creative juices are flowing!

Since Spring is sprung and the weather is nice I have been so much more creative and inspired by all sorts of things! My new roomie is just as big of fabricaholic as I am and now I have a partner in crime to go fabric shopping with! I wanted to share a few of the amazing things I have picked up over the last week!


I cant wait to start this quilt! It just calls "Summers Here!" Not sure what pattern to do with it but I am sure I will come up with something great! :)



These pieces I picked up at a wonderful quilt shop called "the quilt block" and I had to buy them! I just love Amy Butler!! Still debating on if I will just hoard these forever or find a wonderful pattern to use! :)

ahhh yes, Joel Dewberry. I fell in love with this collection and vowed to get them regardless of my fabric budget! haha. I will def be working with these soon!!!!



These were just some randoms I found during my shopping binge this week!
