Happy Monday Quilt Campers!

This is the 2015 Three Rivers Quilters Raffle Quilt, I plan on winning this just so you know. 

We are talking color here, rich, saturated, solid color. Visit Sew Fresh Quilts here.
Made by Kelly of My Quilt Infatuation, visit her blog here.

This morning the Fall sunshine is struggling a bit to break through the clouds. While our leaves are full of glorious color my thoughts advance to the bleak skies of Winter. What better way to lift the chill of Winter by planning your Spring and Summer sewing projects?  Purely by accident I came upon these three examples that could be potential candidates. Please link back to the blogs for more eye candy. The one above by Kelly may be offered as a pattern.

I know, I know, who is planning for Spring now? Well, I am. It takes me a long time to decide on a design, choose the fabric and sew it all up. I want to be more focused this next year and buy the fabric I plan to use, not just fabric I like and not just to accumulate more stash. The best way for me to do this is to have my sketches and outlines when I am out. Once I am in the shops I admit that I get a sort of fever and want everything I see! So I have decided to try to be a little more focused...and not so excited. Stay tuned for news updates on that score! It will certainly be a new track for me. Mr. Sewtopia frequently remarks that he knew it would be like this even before we married. Wise man, he just accepts the inevitable.

Your hubby is a very wise man. That first quilt would look perfect on my bed. It's Spring here now and I need something bright and happy in my room.

Oh Debs, you should see this quilt in person. It is stunning. Entirely made by hand by my Quilt Guild and quilted by another member on her long-arm machine it is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. We will auction it at our show in March. Like I said, it has my name on it!!!! Thanks for stopping by.
