Updates on Sewing Up My Fabric!

Since I originally posted my description of this blog, I have somewhat erred from my intention. I have actually bought much more fabric than I had but ................. in my defense, I got the solids at 50% off and the quilt shop fabric at 75% off, so that doesn't count, right? LOL

Fairy Tale Blog Hop

 Fairy Tales Blog Hop

Hosted by CalicoJoan at MooseStash Quilting

I am pretty excited to be in this blog hop.  There have already been some great interpretations of "Fairy Tales" in the blogs today. Each one so different. Normally, I would not consider myself talented enough to join one of these adventures but I remembered that I had some fabric that I got in Germany about 4 years ago and I really wanted to make something out of it.

Since I was in the land of castles, I just had to buy this fabric. I had no idea what I was going to do with it. And then came along this blog hop!



I tried to make a castle in EQ but I am not that good with it but I did remember that Alice at Blossom Heart Quilts had made a castle pattern.  OK, I hate paperpiecing but I did buy the pattern and manage to made the castle. Fortunately, it was large enough that I only needed to make one.






54" x 59"




Back turned out pretty nice.

Laural of Slice of Pi Quilts posted about making quilts which were featured in children's books and I thought maybe I could find one about fairy tales.  Well...........you can find anything on Amazon, right? Yes I did. I found the perfect children's book.  It tells all about knights and what they wore and about dragons, etc. just perfect! Now I need a little 4 year old boy to read to for nap time! LOL




Thank you for visiting my blog and taking the time to read it.

Below is a list of all of the blogs in this blog hop and the dates they will be sharing their fairy tales. I hope you find the time to stop by and see each one of them.
