I've Been Sewing

I've been a busy girl the past couple of days...I've gotten all caught up on a BOM that I'm getting from Homestead Hearth...the pattern is "Sadie's Sampler" by Lori Smith. I'm loving this pattern and Homestead Hearth's fabric selection is just wonderful.

Here's a little over half of Little Miss' quilt...I have it all cut and all the 4 patches done...I just need to get the rows finished...here are 10 rows...8 to go. This is a great pattern and really shows off this fun Swanky fabric. It's called Paisley Party by Liz Lois and Terry Atkinson and is on the Red Rooster Fabrics website...I'm thinking I should be able to get it done in the next few days.

I'll be back soon with the other baby quilt that I finished...I'm putting the binding on...better go get to work.

Oh, I do like the BOM quilt you are working on. I have several of Lori Smith's patterns but have never done one. On the "to do" list.
You certainly have been busy sewing. The pattern you chose for the baby quilt was a good choice. Shows the fabrics well. And it was a free pattern, too!

Judy said...

Ah, see that's what I love about getting bom's...they have waayyy more selection than I do and all those tough choices are already made for me!

Everything looks great!!

I sure like the Sadie's Sampler. It is turning out just super. I could not access the quilt patterns on Red Rooster; I think you have to have an "account", lol. Do love the small quilts you are doing, they are really pretty.
