Twice Completed

Here's a sneak peek at some of the cute fabrics that I've been working with. I love daisies ~ so much so that they were in my wedding bouquet! This fabric just sings 'Summer' with little bees, butterflys and ladybugs roaming all over.

And there are dragonflys and a great stripe! This fabric is called "Oopsy Daisy" from Blank Fabrics, and this quilt will hopefully appear in Quilt Magazine some time in the Spring. I worked all day, made great progress, added the borders, and got the quilt top done ~ but apparently worked a little too fast...

Has this ever happened to you? Last night I spent the evening taking out and turning a few blocks that inadvertently got put in a little side-ways. Sometimes I can live with side-ways, but this time there was no way. Thank goodness for seam rippers right! Now I've finished this quilt top twice :)

Enjoy the day!

Oh my goodness! I never thought about that happening. I absolutely love the fabrics and will begin looking for some right away.

Such pretty fabric, and yes that's happened to me, so easy to do especially if your tired.

My seam ripper is my best friend.

I used my seam ripper a lot on my beachy quilt-in-a-day...lots...it was a disappearing nine-patch.
