Fabric Focus: Neptune by Tula Pink

Monday, June 1, 2009
Introducing "Fabric Focus." A new feature to my blog where I will pick a fabric I love and post projects made with those fabrics to help inspire you on your sewing journey!

First my first Fabric Focus I have picked my very favorite line (at the moment) "Neptune" by Tula Pink for Moda.


Every time I see this fabric I get little butterfly's and can't help but let out a little sigh of contentment! Something about this line just hits a spot with me. The blues, teals, greens, and pinks are so soothing and go well together.

I Just ordered a bunch of charm packs from Hancock's of Paducah for $3.98 each! Be still my heart! I'll be stalking the mailman as soon as I get the "order shipped" email. Go get your own before they sell out, and trust me they go quickly a this price!

So here are some projects I ran across that use this fabric line, maybe they will inspire you to create something too!


I love the pinwheel on this little quilt. This quilt is available through her Etsy store. I might just have to make a quilt like this with my charm packs! I think I want lots more pinwheels though!


Stacked Coin Quilt by My Three Sons

All I can say is "WOW!" I love the simplicity of this quilt, yet the impact is anything but simple!



Here is another Stacked Coins quilt by Inspired by Aubergine

I'm loving the pieced back on this quilt!



I Here is a Backporch Rainbow Block Quilt by alobsiger


I just love the circles. It's almost like a circle version of the Bento Box Quilt pattern.

WIP: Recipe for Friendship quilt and $5 design wall

Friday, February 6, 2009
This is #4 on my "projects list" I started this quilt a couple of days ago after I realized that my daughter does not have a quilt yet (she'll be 3 in may.) My son on the other hand has 2 quilts. I guess it's a trade off because I have made lots of little dresses for my daughter but only 1 shirt for my son!

The picture is taken on my new $5 design wall! I was tired of having my blocks "rearranged" by my husband every time he came into the office. So I bought a cheap vinyl tablecloth that measure 70"x70" and thumb-tacked it to my wall with the backing facing out. The backing is perfect for grabbing fabrics since it is meant to keep the tablecloth from sliding off your table. The only suggestion I have is to find one that is a neutral color on the front (white off white). Mine was a bright red valentines one and the color peeks through to the reverse side. I'll be getting a white one when I can find one! But for 5 bucks I can't complain because it works so well and keeps my blocks in the right order off the floor and wrinkle free! Hooray!


In this picture only rows 3-8 (all the way across) are sewn together.
