I'm Back!!!!...

Wow!...I have really missed you guys and now that Spring Quilt Market is over where I showed Millie's Closet...I can get back to my regular schedule of posting.

I have a lot of things to show you and will be able to as soon as my patterns are ready... soon.

blue/green color way

In the meantime...

I wanted to tell you a little bit 

about my "designer cloth" prints...

aka cheater cloth.

I have used the fabric straight

 from the bolt on several projects 

and that's been really fun...

but I also cut it up into squares 

to use individually on several projects.

Each square measures 

a little larger than 5 1/2"...

making them perfect to use

 as you normally would a charm square.

red/aqua/pink color way

Here are close up pics of each one showing a few of the squares...

but there are 20 different prints

 (from the bolts)

 in each color way...

yellow/green color way

So it has really provided me

 with a good variety of prints

 to work with in my new patterns and 

it's been sew fun!

I made a little project using

 2 1/2" squares...

a few from the bolt and the rest from

 the designer cloth.

The project also included 

my new lt. gray solid

 and red perle cotton.

I'm planning on doing a tutorial

 on this little project...

just wondering if you are interested?

Millie Goes Up North...

                          

It's been so fun to see

 Millie's Closet 

popping up everywhere and a big thanks 

to all of you out there who are sending me 

links and pictures of Millie 

whenever and wherever you see her! 

I wanted to share these pictures 

with you that were sent to me by 

Tammy

Tammy has a quilt shop up north 

(from me) in Canada.

She made a closet in her quilt shop

 for Millie to be displayed in...

what a clever girl! 

Tammy's shop is in Raymond 

and is called

 Sugar Town Quilt Company

When she received the Millie's Closet

 line a few weeks ago...

she went right to work making 

a display for Millie to hang out 

in her cute shop! 

Tammy has been one busy gal...

look at all the adorable 

things that she made!

I am drooling over this chair 

that she picked up for 15 dollars 

at the Salvation Army!

 She promptly recovered it with

 Millie's Closet in the 

red/pink/aqua color way.

Oh my...huge crush.

Do you heart this as much as I do?

It looks so cute and cottage comfy:)

I love that Millie has gone to Canada 

and I love that Tammy showed me 

what she has been up to there!

Thanks Tammy...I think you are amazing:)

Have a quilty kind of day my friends!
