Hi friends! As I mentioned on Tuesday, it’s pattern testing week for the Quilt Theory designers. I decided that to test my partner’s pattern, I would make a quilt for my youngest son. I’ve been promising him one for so long, and he’s been so patient waiting for it.

I got a lot of what I needed from my stash, but I was short on low volume prints and also needed some more blues and greens.

There were a few impulse purchases this week as well, and I needed to replenish my stock of Aurifil white, which is my go-to thread.

Here is what I got:

1 1/4 yards Purple Dot N’ Square from Michael Miller

FQ Timeless Treasures Crosshatch in Clover

FQ Suds in Blue Hawaiian from Patrick Lose

1/3 yard each of Kona White, Bone and Silver and some random box-store white-on-white

and 1/4 yard of gorgeous floral canvas from Brother and Sister Design Studio

The floral was a total impulse buy that I couldn’t just leave behind. I’ll be making a pencil/makeup pouch with this. Total selfish sewing!

Here’s a close-up of the floral fabric. Isn’t she lovely?!

Happy Sewing! ~L
