New Quilt to Start

I am so excited about the new quilt I am going to make for the shop.  Look at this great fabric.

0509 Quilt

I can’t believe how much I love this line.  It is by Timeless Treasures and is called Kiwi by Alice Kennedy.  It has my favorite colors in it.  I love my black and whites and to have them with my favorite neutral lime green (or kiwi as it is called in this line).

The prints will be the blocks, the black is the inner border with the larger piece of lime green in the back as the outer border.  The plain lime green will be the binding and the black print in the back will be the backing. 

I started cutting it tonight but have to finish up the polka dot quilt first.  I got all those blocks finished today and hope to piece the top tomorrow.

  3. From seeing your work in the shop and on your blog I can see that these colors are right up your alley! That always makes the sewing fun, doesn't it?

    Hope you get to take the trip to Mary Jo's then--that limo idea is wonderful!

  5. I can't wait to see what you do with this fabric. I need to make the quilt quicly so I can get it to the longarmer and back. Mine will be from one of those patterns made for jelly rolls.
