Welcome to my crafty little corner! Feel free to comment and follow me on my path to creativity. I love meeting new people, so don't be shy! Scrapbooking, journaling, making felt plushies, embroidery, painting, photography, blogging, organizing, reading, and sewing are some of my most favorite things.
I am seriously loving them right now. I so badly want to make a quilt this year, it's one of my goals for 2010. I heard it was a lot of hard work, so when I start one I'll probably start easy and get a kit. I missed out on Rachel's quilt kits, bummed :( Hope I can find another kit, anyone have any ideas? Here is some awesome inspiration of some beautiful quilts!
I've been thinking of making a cute mini-bunting with mints and whites for the border of my room, I think I found the inspiration I needed to get started on one!! Here's some bunting eye candy! Love!!
What are you loving lately??
Happy Monday!!!

Lindsay
I love all the quilts I started on one last year I really need to finish it! Maybe we can help each other out!

Yup! I'm so into bunting right now- I use it for anything and work it into any projects that I am workign on.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you make for your craft space. Cute!
I think that I am going to start my RVA quilt tomorrow, it will be my first quilt and I am so nervous! I sent your card off today let me know when you get it! What am I loving today?? YOU!

I finished my first quilt not so long ago. It is only little. It is a pram quilt for my future child. I made a girls one and have a boys one planned too. Starting small is a good way to get into making quilts I think. I found it was overwhelming just making a little one so making a big one would have completely freaked me out. If you make a big one go for an easy design such as large squares of fabric because that would be easier to make. Can't wait to see how you go with your first quilt!
ReplyDeleteI love quilts too! i don't know how to quilt even tho my mom is an awesome quilter! I need to take advantage of my free quilting classes aka mommy ha! and make one for myself.
ReplyDeleteIf I make one I hope it looks a little like the things she does: http://sewtakeahike.typepad.com/sewtakeahike/

So funny, I just finished making a teeny tiny little bunting for a toy camper just before reading this. I also want to make a quilt this year but I'm super intimidated.. I think I'd go for a kit too, I'd love to get my hands on one of Rachel's. I'm blogging my mini bunting soon if you're interested :)

I love love this! I have a patchwork quilt that my grandmother made me when I was a baby. I will cherish it until the day I die. It's priceless. And, that room with the tree painting is amazing! So inspiring Linds! You go girl!

Very cool thing to do~ If you find any more quilt kits let me know!I did not even know they existed until I saw Janels post. Dang! :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe I could actually make one if I had a kit!
Keep me in mind if you find one! :)

Loving all the pics of the quilts and I have always loved the mini "flags". I am so confused on why they are called bunting? Do you know?
ReplyDeleteI know Janel posted a mini one that I think is so so cute and I know you will make a cute one also. I love when people double them up ( one higher than the other). I hope that gives you an idea. love ya---gina

Oh I would soooooooo love to make a quilt...but sewing is not one of my strong skills..hmmm let's just say absolutely no skills in that department. My grandma tried to teach me to make a quilt way back when and I think I did 10 stitches and she said in a loving way, "just leave it with me dear and I'll finish it"....hehehe...
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Debbie :) xxoo
Thanks so much for the quilt site Ali, I LOVE the fabric choices too!!

i used to hate quilts. they seemed so old-ladyish...but for some reason, i can't get enough of them now!
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see the one you make!
xo
Those look great. I don't think I could ever make one on my own.
ReplyDeleteI love quilts as well but what I really love is quilt #10...the picture of the pink room with the moon and Cherry Blossom tree...that is MAGNIFIQUE!

Oooh, I just love a cheery bunting and a warm quilt. I'm thinking I should hang at least one bunting for my birthday party this weekend.
ReplyDeleteNow I've got about 20 ideas for new projects :(
ReplyDeleteDon't think I'll ever live long enough
I am loving bunting too! Those pictures are beautiful. I'm visiting from Tuesday Tag-Along. I'm a new follower. Hope you stop by!
ReplyDeleteI've been a silent reader for awhile and I just wanna say I love your blog. Recently, I just happen to see lotsa panda cuteness when I'm out and it just reminds me of you! So thought I'll say hi! :D
ReplyDeleteLove this post!!
ReplyDeleteI love this post! i really love the patchwork quilt from Rice DK - it made me want to learn how to quilt because I could never afford/justify spending £200 on a quilt! I would be there forever making one big enough though. Im stealing these pictures for my inspiration board xo
