Guess what I would be cutting into soon...

If you're for the link to Quilters Dream Batting giveaway , click here to see the details. Otherwise proceed below :-)
I cut some FQs this afternoon from my Everyday Party Bolts. Yikes, yes its bolts. Isn't it fun to see these fabrics on bolts?

I am so glad that I added the two more prints from my original plan, the first one from left the "Everyday Party Ant March" and the 4th one from left "Everyday Party Mushroom" prints.

Here is what I will be cutting into tomorrow to make a baby quilt. I know I have other big WIPs which I need to finish. But they have one or more complexities associated with. Since I haven't been sewing on regular basis, for good 3 - 4 months now I just need some instant gratification.

A quick baby quilt

Remember my Tumbling blocks quilt from the LQF, I am making a baby version of the same. It was a fun quilt to put together.

Here is my favorite print from the collection, which I will be using for the backing:

This would even make a cute baby blanket. Have you ever mixed organic fabrics with minky or other materials in a project? Does that take away the organic nature of the item?

Happy Quilting!

    Love your new fabrics, Malini! A baby sized version of your tumbling blocks quilt will look great in these! I think a minky backing will be wonderful. I would not worry about it. Otherwise, are you going to use an organic batting? Thread?

This week's design was my all time favorite. Its an easy design but people who don't FMQ think its so complicated ;). I really love the the texture on the quilt. Here are some of pictures of the Paisley FMQ on my Shades of Blue quilt: Paisley FMQ with Circles - you see on the first block I tried to mix paisley with circles Paisley FMQ Paisley FMQ The past week was really productive for me. Finally my sewing machine started behaving and the quilting went really smooth. I almost quilted away 3 blocks. Just 2 more blocks to quilt approximately. I can't wait to finish this quilt soon.
