Shameless Tease

Okay, actually I'm shameless and a tease! I'll start with the tease. I've been quilting my Make It Right challenge quilt. Oh, it is fun. I can't share the whole quilt, but I can show you what I'm quilting; slate tile and paisley, both of which are on Leah Day's 365+ designs.

I want to make sure that there is a lot of texture in the quilt since a) the line of fabric is call Textures and b) Angela Walters (the fabric designer) is an amazing long-arm quilter.  I'm using Aurifil thread and Quilters Dream Puff batting. LOVE both products, they are my favorite combination, not to mention that this fabric line is in my favorite color palette of lime and teal. You won't have to wait long, I have to have it done by June 6th.

Okay, so now for the shameless part, I would like to ask for your VOTE(S) over at the Blogger's Quilt Festival at Amy's Creative Side. 

I have my Elephant quilt in the bed category

And my Koi Pond quilt in the Home Machine Quilted category

All you have to do is click on my link, then click on the word "Vote" and voila' you're done!

I'm linking up today with Leah Day for FMQ Friday, can't wait to see what everyone's been up to this week.

Make It Right Challenge

Have you all seen this challenge from Art Gallery Fabrics?

It's not like I really have time to work on this right now with spring gardening and other pressing quilt projects. But I just can't say no to this one. Yesterday, I got my Right Angles panel in the mail from Intrepid Thread. Ordered it Monday - received it Wednesday (gotta love priority mail).

The rules state you must use every scrap of the panel (1 yard), you can add Art Gallery Pure Elements as secondary/background fabrics. Quilted with Aurifil thread (no problem there, love Aurifil) and I plan on using Quilters Dream batting. Entry deadline is June 6th!

Will I be able to make this deadline? Will I be able to keep this a secret? Do I even know what I'm going to make? Good questions, no answers.

Color Me Quilty!
