My WIP - Pattern from the Giant Vintage Star pattern by Jeni Baker.
(Sorry for the crappy picture - it was late last night)
I LOVE the 2wenty Thr3e fabric line. It is SO fun.
I wanted to keep the prints large scale so I knew this pattern was perfect.
I made my squares smaller tho - for the Baby version.
It's about 45 x45.
I just need to grab some gray thread today for quilting and it will be done! I can't wait.
I also purchased this book. I LOVE it.... if not just for the pretty pictures, there are several quilts in here I want to make. Funny story - have you ever gone to the store and wanted something and it was the last one left? However - you wanted to wait, say - to have your JoAnn's coupon to get it? ;) So you maybe put the item way on the bottom shelf and behind some other items, in hopes it will be there when you return. Well, I went to JoAnn's and saw this book, but I, too, wanted to wait. When I went back, I couldn't find it. I knew where it was the last time, front and center on the top shelf, and there were a few copies. I hunted high and low. Finally I found it...tucked on the very bottom shelf, hidden in the back row behind some knitting books. So - if this was your book that you wanted to save for later when you had your coupon - I am sorry. I bought it.... with my coupon. :)
I truly am sorry - I really wanted it and I'm glad to have it in my hot greedy hands.
I will have pictures soon of my Baby Vintage Star quilt!
Hugs.

ReplyDeleteFinder keepers! I hope you don't feel too guilty!!
ReplyDeleteYou were watching me weren't you?!? LOL! I have done that too! This time it wasn't my book you got though. That person could perhaps go to Amazon to get her copy now.
ReplyDeleteBring the book to work next time you come in.
ReplyDeletefabulous quilt! I love the 2wenty Thr3e fabric line :) hahaha, so I'm not the only one hiding things I want to come back for? :)
ReplyDeleteDude, your story about the book totally made me laugh. And I love that quilt! I'm hoping to get my hands on some 2wenty Thr3e and soon!
