I had a crazy schedule today, but I wanted to stop by the
Attic Window Quilt Shop to see if any of the
Happy Scrappers had anything for Show-N-Tell. Above, Buffie shows us her latest Tea Leaf quilt.
This is a closer look at her quilt. I love how her inner border blended so nicely so that there is not a distinct line between the inner tea leaves and the outside border. When you see mine, you will see what I mean as I added a solid blue fabric as my inner border. Since I want to make another one, and have been collecting flower fabrics for it, I am now going to start looking for a fabric like Buffie used.
I also want to find a backing fabric like this. Isn’t it lovely?
Remember that last month I asked for volunteers to donate these 12 ½” blocks for a charity. The one above was made by Bev. Thank you Bev for your kind donation.
And this one was made by Buffie. Thank you Buffie. I love your colors.
It's still early and I'm looking forward to getting more blocks for this charity quilt. There is no time limit. I will make the quilt once I have enough blocks. Don’t forget that the next
Happy Scrapper’s meeting is this Saturday.
Remember the link I gave you yesterday for the scrappy block? I saw scads of fabrics in the SALE section at the shop that would be perfect for those end pieces in that pattern . Take a look when you come to the shop.
ON ANOTHER NOTE: I love this woven quilt that
Moda Bake Shop has. You can use the Jelly Rolls as suggested, but I also think this is a great pattern for your scraps. Take a look.
Until next time,
♥
Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!

Wow! Buffie has outdone herself again! Wish I could have seen that in person! And looks like you got some great blocks donated! If you need more, let me know!
I love those log cabin blocks. I think I'll add that pattern to my list of things to do with my scrap group.
