This morning I saw that lots of folks were showing off the projects on their design walls. Well, I don't have a design wall...
...and I don't really have any projects started since I have been trying to finish up most of my projects.
So, after working on my "Fun & Done" and making adjustments to it again...(Darren didn't like the idea of make 2 quilts for the twins. He wants to keep it as one that is big enough for our bed~I think he likes this one).
...I cut the fabric for a new quilt.
I have been collecting fabric for this one since February 2009.
It's called Cinnamon & Nutmeg and will be made with reds, browns and tans.
Most of the fabrics are Civil War reproductions and I am going to have LOTS left over! I finally feel like I have a "stash" now!

| Sorry! I forgot to rotate the browns. |

| ...and the reds! Love these! |
Yea!
Yippee!
I am so excited...can't you tell?!
So, now I can get started on the Farmer's Wife just as soon as I get a copy of the book!
Oh, and here are a few pics from yesterday's absolutely boring snow day...

Love the Fabric Choices!!! I have that pattern still too from the magazine! I clip out the patterns I like and store them in Clear sleeves in a notebook :) Your little piano sandwich is too cute..and I thought for a second the red hair was real. HAHAHA...
ReplyDeleteI meant Pink..hehe
DeleteOh, these fabrics are so nice! I adore these colors! They are warm and "speak" about a big, cosy, embracing quilt... or about enjoying staring at the fire in the fireplace in the cold long winter nights, while sipping a good red warm wine, flavored with some black pepper, a few cloves, sugar and some cinnamon... I think also about a mother's / grandmother's embrace... I'd better stop, there is no time to day-dream right now, I have a lot of things to do :-))))). Your kids are adorable! And so is the piano, wonderful idea :-))).
