Found the Perfect Backing

After umming and ahhing about a backing for I Heart You, I finally found the perfect fit. Cute but not too over-the-top, on sale, and the required 9 yards available.

Sew Stitchy by Aneela Hoey

I probably won't get to make this quilt till later in the year; I still need to quilt my Scrappy Tripalong, and I want to start piecing my Marmalade/Star Blossoms quilt as soon as I can (once I get some market sewing out the way next week). If only there were more hours in the day! At least now that daylight savings is done there's more opportunity to be inside where it's warm.

I Love Pink!

Pink is one of my favourite colours, and has been since I was a little girl. So it's no surprise that the fabrics I treated myself to are all pink, and so pretty!

I was very happy to spot the bulging parcel on my doorstep this arvo. Up top is one of the pink Marmalade florals which is going to be a quilt backing.

And at the bottom is a lot of the Simply Color pink ombré fabric for the I Heart You quilt. The middle print is also Simply Color, for the binding. Pink makes me happy! What's your favourite colour?
