A quilt started...

Sunday 26 June 2011
Well I've made a resolution to get one project made from each craft book I own by this time next year.  This isn't quite as ridiculous as it sounds as I only have around 20 books (yes really, that few!)  They are all either quilting or sewing project books so no cross stitch is included in this challenge. To be honest I have no idea if I'll manage it or not - the idea is that each project I do has to be completely finished - so all quilts quilted, etc and, as far as is possible, I have to make each project using my current stash.

To this end I've started my first project from my 'Jelly Roll Quilts' book.  I had a Moda Marbles citrus jelly roll that I wanted to use but was two colours short so when I met up with some friends yesterday I bought two long quarters of additional colours so I could get going.

So here are my fabrics:


And here are my cut pieces:


Now all I have to do is sew them all together!

So you must have been standing on a chair..and I'm guessing that they are Lia's samdals and foot and not yours?
Looking good!

Hi, The colours are gorgeous - very jelly bean like. I think that this will be a fun project to make. I look forward to seeing your progress.
