I was able to get a bit of sewing time in and finished putting together all the blocks for my Twister quilt.
The fabric is Aspen Frost by Basic Grey. Great vintage-y looking prints and I love the olive/aqua/red color combination. I added that yellow-y green-y gold outer piece. It isn't in the collection but is another one of those Basic Grey Grunge fabrics and I love.
With the outside borders this should measure about 75" square and will look lovely in my living room this holiday season - can't wait to display it!
Here's a close up of some of the fabrics.
Have you had a chance to check out the photos from the Houston Fall Quilt Market on the Jolly Jabber blog? You can see them here. I love getting an advance look at the upcoming fabric lines but I will say it makes me want them NOW! LOL - I have no patience. There is a new line by Gina Martin called "Sewing Box" -- love the colors and the graphics. And Sandy Klop's newest collection of American Jane, "Ducks in a Row" is calling my name.
Hope we all have productive weeks!
Happy stitching-

Your quilt is going to be beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Twister quilt, Carol. Did you use a layer cake? The grunge yellow gold is perfect.
ReplyDeleteThe fabric we're using for Baby Sister's nursery is by Gina Martin. I really like her style.
Very pretty! I want to see a pic of the sewing room now...lol :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
You're going to make me break down and buy a twister tool, aren't you? :)
ReplyDeleteGreat addition to your Christmas decor for sure! Grunge is one of my faves too.
