I'm the Grinch

Well, I said it. I am so not in the mood for Christmas, or anything related. But I did sew. A lot. So here are some of this month's stuff.

The one that I couldn't get a decent photo of, and the one that started the pink madness in my house :)

The crosses came out very quickly, the 5" squares helped a lot. Also, like never before :)), I actually decided what to use before starting cutting, so every cross is made from 3 pieces [2 squares and one rectangle]. Pieceing was so easy!

Not sure I love it with the gray border so much, I think the next one will have no border at all. [next quilt with crosses]


Then the princess baby quilt, made at the same time with baby blue and baby smile.

I tried to get out of the pink obsession with some all-time-favorite Echino, but right after it was finished, along with some custom quilts, I kept thinking about the pink.

So I made the scrappy one.

So soft and thin [backed it with some no name thin and soft fabric], it's one of my favorites and the first one to leave.

But no, this was not enough :)). Again, I put all the larger scraps left with some gray, and made another pinkish one :)

Somewhere along the way I also made three sweet pillows but only made pictures of two of them. A heavily quilted wonky star,

and two of them with the sweetest mini charm pack ever :)

I wanted so much to see for myself Aneela's fabrics but funding really stopped me from getting anything larger. It was just perfect!

But, incredible as it may seem :)), I got over the pink phase. Oh, yeah! Well, kind of :))

Pink and green is different, right? :)))

  5. Oh, wow! You were soooo productive. I love all your pink quilts and pillows. I'm going through grey period - I want to make everything with some grey in it, pillows, quilts, pouches, table runners, everything. I'll see how long that lasts.
