Zig Zag Friends
This will be included in my Modern Quilting Lecture to demonstrate how the different designers play so nicely together! Lots of boys here: Kaffe, Philip Jacobs, Joel Dewberry. Some girls, too.
I thought I would love this most of all, but I should not be allowed to set blocks on point. Ever again. See the wrinkles in the corners of the blocks? Boo.
The last two Saturdays, I was helping out at Girl Scout sewing workshops. My friend Carolyn and I didn't help plan them, but were called in at the last minute to cover. So we were stuck with patterns we would not have chosen for 10 year old non-sewists.
Here are my samples of the bag (Simplicity 5151)
and doll's sundress (Oliver & S).
Definitely cute, but a lot of work to try to complete in 2 hours with 16-20 girls and only 3 or 4 machines. It took us 3 hours both weeks. Everyone went home happy!

I simply love your colours!! so cheerful....and the plant isn't bad either..lol
Wow, you have a serious green thumb! I love your amaryllis! Your New Wave quilt looks great - "New Snap" totally gave me the giggles. Happy WiP Wednesday!
aww, the doll dress is so sweet. I haven't attempted doll clothing yet! Seems like it would be hard to work so small. Great amaryllis! I think ours died last year. :(
The meadowsweet dresden quilt is gorgeous! LOVE the added touch with the rick rack!
Such bright, beautiful quilt tops! I just love how they look against the snow, especially the zig zag one.
Thanks for linking up, have a wonderful week! : )
Your quilt top collection is beautiful! Are you planning on quilting them yourself? I love the wave one especially!
Blocks on point - SHIVER!! I totally feel your pain ;) Still beautiful so don't worry about those corners! And I LOVE the zig zag - great fabric choices!
