Sorry I've been gone so long. I've been really out of it lately. I've been very tired, with lots of allergy problems and just haven't felt like doing anything. I have managed to get some cleaning and organizing done. My projects are lining up though. Hopefully I can get back to sewing again soon. I miss it!
In the meantime I discovered a new Stitch & Quilt Along I'm joining . . .
It's the Garden Steps Stitch & Quilt Along with Clover & Violet. Here's the sample block . . .
It's so yummy and so me! :) You should go and check it out!
For the quilt I need 12 fat quarters and a solid for the center. Last week I noticed that Sew Lux Fabric & Gifts had the fabric I wanted to use on sale. I could pick out the 12 fat quarters I wanted and order just them so I did. It arrived today . . .
Such pretty packaging! I almost didn't want to open it . . . (almost.) ;) Here's a close up of their business card . . .
I choose to use Ruby by Bonnie & Camille for Moda. I just love it! :) Here it is all wrapped up . . .
And another view . . .
Here are the twelve fat quarters I choose . . .
Aren't they yummy?!!! The quilt requires two colorways so I'm using red . . .
and aqua . . .
I already have some white on hand so I'll be using that. Now I just need to figure out what threads I'll be using for the embroidery. Then check my stock and order the ones I don't have. I can't wait to get started on this one. It looks so fun! :)
Until next time . . .

Cherise, I love the Ruby fabric it has been my favorite for a while. I also thought about doing the Stitch & Quilt along too! I have another stitching project in the works! lol
Oh, such pretty fabrics! Wishing I had a bundle of these to 'play' with and even more so, the TIME to play with them! :)
