Blog Tour, Sassafras Lane, Second Star Quilt

Favorite Things Fabric Tour

Who doesn't love sewing with a good rainbow fabric collection? Luckily for me (and you), Shayla from Sassafras lane is a master at creating said colorful collections. I first sewed with one of Shayla's collections a few years ago when I was able to participate in a blog tour for her Foundations fabric collection. Check out the rainbow Hello Pouches I made here, and then again with her Good Vibes Only fabric collection where I made my Modern Half Hexi quilt. When she asked me to participate again this year, I knew I wouldn't be able to resist Shaylas rainbow goodness. Somehow I was able to manage, in the midst of having a baby and learning all about sleep deprivation.

Blog Tour, Sassafras Lane

Good Vibes Only Blog Tour

I always feel so privileged and excited when I get to participate in a blog tour for the launch of a new product. I know that it takes an artist who is willing to put his/her heart and soul into creating it and bringing it to fruition.

Foundation Fabric Blog Tour

I was more than thrilled when Shayla from Sassafras Lane asked if I would participate in her Foundations Fabric Blog Tour.  Foundation is a fabric line designed by Shayla for Windham Fabrics  with the perfect rainbow palette. Ever since I released my Hello Pouches pattern I have wanted to do a little improv piecing work on the base of the pouches.  These fabrics gave me the perfect opportunity. I especially loved quilting my pouches with these prints. Each hand drawn print created the most perfect quilting lines to follow. I accented the rainbow patchwork with mini pipping which highlighted the colors so nicely.   I am also hosting a Sew-A-Long through the year of 2018. #12minisin12months A mission to create more mini quilts for my sewing space while connecting to other creatives and improving and learning new skills.  I couldn't pass up the opportunity to create my February Mini from this Foundation fabric.  Here...
