I've had 2 Dandelion Girl charm packs [from Fig Tree] for a while now. I finally got a chance to play with them the other night.
For some reason, I am a little short on the amount of charms the Wild Thing pattern called for so I had to pull a few more fabrics from my stash. Hopefully the florals and polka dots will make a nice addition to the plaids, checks and stripes that came in the charm packs. What do you think?
Camille just did a fun post on her blog showing lots of different versions of her Wild Thing Quilt. I love her blog. It's one of my favorites!
I've actually made a lot of progress with these blocks. Chain piecing makes it pretty speedy. I should be done with all the blocks tonight. 
This is a really fun pattern. I can't decide if I will give this quilt to a special family when it's done or be selfish and keep it for myself. We'll see. Maybe I'll just enjoy it for a little while and then pass it on.
Aren't the colors in it so soft and sweet? They are so calming to me. I think I know just the right family that might like this. They might have to pry it out of my hands, but I think they'll like it:)
Polka dots go with everything and a flower or 2 never hurts! I'm looking forward to seeing more.
ReplyDeleteLook at you go!!! Love the color combo and so fun with polka dots too!
ReplyDeleteI love the softness of the colors. I don't know how you can give quilts away after all the work that goes into them. You're amazing! P.S. I LOVE your blog. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to see yours. I love the sweet colors.
ReplyDeleteThe colours are wonderful and warm. I've loved everything in them. The windmills are great
ReplyDeleteI tend to pick out bright, vibrant, strong colors . . . but sure can appreciate the peaceful, calm effect these fabrics have. I can picture the quilt on a porch with wicker furniture and a lovely summer breeze blowing through. (Mint julep, anyone?)
ReplyDeleteLove your colors.....
ReplyDeleteOoh I like those fabrics! Can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteLove the Wild Things pattern! Can't wait to see how this tuns out.
ReplyDeleteThe colors are great and scrappy is the best...in my opinion. The more fabric the merrier!
ReplyDeleteso cute amber, you always do such a good job.
