Wishlist Wednesday (fabric!)

I've been sewing more lately, and therefore growing my fabric wishlist.  I thought today I'd share some of my favorite current prints with you!


Fat Quarter Shop (image from their too) has this great gray and yellow.

For the kids, they also have this ADORABLE fabric

It has a panel option too if you want to go that route.  My 3 year old saw me looking at it and said "Hey! Firetruck!"  

Julie from The Intrepid Thread has the new Woodland Pals stuff:
   
Isn't that the cutest thing?  The little racoons crack me up.

One more, also from The Intrepid Thread.  World Tour.  Not little kidsy like Ruff n' Tuff or Woodland Pals, this fabric collection is ornate and for grown ups:
  

Isn't it just GORGEOUS!?

There you have it, my current fabric wishlist.  What about you?  Is there a fabric or project you've had on your wishlist for awhile?  Leave a link to it in the comments (as if I need MORE fabric to covet! ha!).

By the way, NONE of the links are affiliate links. I get jack-diddly-squat if you go there and buy something, but by all means, if you love the fabric, knock yourself out!  

A first for me!

Recently I found a locally owned quilt shop. Well okay it is really 45 minutes from my house. But that counts as "local" right?

Anyway, I bought something.

My first every charm pack! This is Dilly Dally from Moda. Cute and fun! It is begging to be made into a quilt....that is after I finish the rag quilt...

What about you? Have you tried charm packs, jelly rolls, or layer cakes yet? Do you like the precuts?

On the Worktable

My worktable looks suspiciously like our kitchen table.....

Here's a peek at what I've been working on:

Slowly but surely it is turning into a rag quilt! My first one! I have 98 squares cut out in these photos!

More pics and instructions to come when it is finished.

The fabrics are all flannels from JoAnn's. They often go on sale for 1/2 price, so always try to buy then if you can!

I had the cars and stripes leftover from some burp cloths I made for our baby. I went to the store and they were out of those exact prints, but the stars, recycle design, and red match nicely!

Pincushion Eye Candy

When you were a kid, did your mom have one of those tomato shaped pincushions? Yeah, mine too.

Well lo and behold how the times have changed! I can not believe the range of pincushions I have seen!

You know my baby's first birthday party is going to be airplanes. So I'm slightly obsessed with them right now. Look at these cuties from etsy!

This beauty from England caught my eye.

Moda is a well-loved designer fabric among all the sewers I know.

This sweet pincushion is from PiccalilliPatchwork.

Last but not least, venture into the animal kingdom! Hedgehogs, squirrels, sheep, rabbits, oh dear!
