I have a couple of things underway this week. One of those is a birthday present for a friend. I have decided to make a Noodlehead Supertote with this fabric pull…just loving the colors of these fabrics.
I have these blocks underway with a palette of blues and corals:
This is my Quilt Design a Day for today. See yesterday’s post for more details.
Linking up with Lee @ Freshly Pieced for WiP Wednesday (see button on the right).
Anne from Play Crafts has been on a journey to do a “Quilt Design a Day“. I have been following along via instagram, and loving it. After reading a recent post, I am finally jumping on the band wagon.
Today’s Color palette (they use the daily seeds palette) was Safari Summer.
I already had something forming, based on this section of the Tapa Cloth, I have framed and hanging in my bedroom.
And that turned into this:
I am liking my first effort. Linking up with Anne over on the Facebook page.
Toda, June 8th, is my birthday!!! I am going to share with you a couple of my recent purchases which I am in love with. First up, my new addiction – Aurifil thread…which I recently purchased three boxes. 
I love how it sews, whether I am using it for piecing, quilting or EPP. I love the colors…what a wonderful palette of inspiration. As you may be able to tell I have cracked open my Botanics box already (the middle one) for my current project….and can not wait until I get to the quilting with the thread.
The second thing I am loving and so excited about is Cotton and Steel. After seeing all the IG love of Quilt Market (ah…someday, when I grow up), I could not wait to get my hands on it….especially on the basics package from them. Anxiety is growing….I have pre-ordered everything. to my surprise, Laura @ Little and Lots emailed last week, and put me onto this wonderful bundle; Moonlit by Rashida Coleman-Hale (Cotton and Steel). I am loving those arrow prints, and everything for that matter :-). 
Those are two of my favorite things.
Lastly, in celebration of my birthday, I also have a giveaway. A fat quarter bundle consisting of 15 prints of First of Infinity Text. 
Just leave a comment about the one quilty purchases/ things you are in love with at the moment. I will draw a winner randomly next Sunday. Hope you all have a good week. Linking up with Quilts from the Attic for Molli’s Sparkles Sunday Stash.
