I've switched gears back to sewing this past week and have dipped into the stash once again for fabrics. I won a basket at a quilt shop several years ago. It was filled with a variety of precuts, all from the Chic Neutrals collection by Amy Ellis for Moda. The prints in this collection are geometric prints in grays, blacks, purple and yellow. In all, I received: 1 Fat Eighths Bundle (9" x 22"), 1 Charm Pack (5" squares), 1 Mini Charm Pack (2 1/2" squares), and yardage (1 yard). Quite and impressive assortment of fabrics.
My plans for projects made from these precuts include: one quilt, 2 (or 3) pillows, 2 table runners. The prints in this collection are lovely, but just aren't in a colorway that appeals much to me personally. As a result, all projects made from these fabrics will be giveaways.
The first two items for giveaway will be a pillow made from those 2 1/2" squares and a table runner with pieces cut from the fat eighths. These items will be donated as a door prize drawing at a scrapbooking retreat coming up at the end of the month. Pillow is 15" square, runner is 11" x 41".
The rest of the projects are scheduled for April and May. Here are the finished projects:
I'll be taking a break for a couple of weeks as prior engagements will keep me out of the craft room. I'll give a full report when I'm back to crafting again.
See you in a few....
