I'm so excited to announce that my
very first calendar has arrived
from the printers and is now available:)
Way back when the sample yardage of my
fabric collection arrived...
I thought it would be really fun to
dive right in and make a mini.
I used the squares from the 3 color ways
and fussy cut them for
some sections of the blocks...
I of course used all of the
other prints in the collection as well:)
Using the pieces together
and auditioning each block for
different colors and texture
is super fun!
I chose to make mini
Cozy Cottage Blocks:)
Super cute and tiny!
Each little cottage is a different combo of fabrics
and has it's own little personality!
They eventually turned into a mini quilt...
Which is now on the cover of my new
2016 Cozy Cottage Calendar
It's on the cover because
the pattern is included inside...
along with step by step instructions:)
I love how the quilt turned out...
and it looks so cute in my family room:)
There's no place like a cozy home!
And of course you know that I am
known for doing my blocks in two sizes...
So I made the larger block into
Cozy Cottage Pillows!
Of course the pattern for my pillows...
Are included in my calendar as well:)
I love how the quilt and
the pillows look together...
COZY!!!
I'm so proud of how my
calendar turned out.
I couldn't have done it
without my awesome publishers...
This is the back of the calendar
and shows you the photos
from each month inside.
All photography took place
inside my very own cozy cottage:)
to get your very own copy
and share each month of 2016
with me:)
