| Loulouthi Swoon |
Well, I finally finished my Swoon quilt. I can't seem to get over using Anna Maria Horner's Loulouthi in quilts. The patterns and colors unexpectedly work and they make me so happy. This quilt has alot of mistakes in it! But, it looks great if you don't examine it too closely!
It is Spring Break for me and I have been huddled inside with the stinky doggies for a week of cold rain and sleet and snow! Today the sun came out and I bathed all the dogs, but it is still too cold for them to dry outside, so they are toasting by the fire.
I also made two Spring shirts. One is made from some fabric called Soul Garden which I purchased from
Alewives Fabric in February. I used the Built by Wendy shirt pattern and so far, this is the shirt pattern that works best for me. I made the other from some Nani Iro Phiona sold me last summer for a dress. I had purchased a Hot Pattern for a placketed shirt and I used that to whip up this fun shirt. Unfortunately, it is a bit big. Next time I will go down a couple of sizes. It think it will be ok belted.

Beautiful! You continue to amaze me with your talent! Love the shirts!!! Sharon
ReplyDeleteWow, Cindy, your Swoon quilt came out nicely. Seeing your progress really inspired me... to ask the girls to make a Swoon quilt (or two) for the shop. You'll have to take a look the next time you are up in our neck of the woods. And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE those shirts! Can't wait to see them up close and in person! Sorry about the cold and yucky spring, but there is something to be said for snuggling up with the doggies by the woodstove. Reuben's snoring away next to me right now! XO, Rhea
