Little Bits of This & That

Hello fun quilters! I’m excited to tell you about a fun sew along with Fat Quarter Shop. I love doing a sew along because it gives me a reason to sew on something just for fun. The short cut quilt we are working on is called the Fat Quarter Snowballs quilt. You can find the pattern and more at the Jolly Jabber. For my quilt I used a navy Bella Solid and Gooseberry fabric by Moda Fabrics. I love using the navy background and it was a step our of my comfort zone. I will definitely be using it again! What is your favorite color background to use for your quilts?

The blocks are a snowball block and a square in a square block. 

 
This is one of the sweetest quilts I have done lately and it goes together in a snap! 

Perfect for any fabric line you want to showcase. 

This is a great weekend project with instant gratification. So hop on over to the 

Jolly Jabber to download the pattern today!

P.S. You can find me on Instagram and Facebook.

I would love to have you join my Facebook group called Sweet Stitchin's too!

 It's not very often that I get to sew just for the joy of it. I love sewing everyday but when it's just something fun I get to do instead of for a deadline, it's even better.

I am joining in the Jelly Roll Ripple quilt sew along with Fat Quarter Shop today. It's one of their Short Cut quilts that is  fantastically quick and easy. It is made scrappy by using a jelly roll. Nothing better than that I think! Sometimes it's just wonderful to grab your favorite jelly roll and whip up a quilt that goes together in a snap. I love using pre-cuts because all the fabrics are from one fabric collection and you just know they are going to look amazing together.

You can find the YouTube video HERE and the pattern can be found HERE.

Here is how mine turned out~

Hope on over to the Fat Quarter Shop's Blog to join in on the fun of making one of these simple and sweet quilts! Ilove quilts like this to keep on hand for birthday gifts or just when I want to give a friend something special. Now to get it on the quilting machine and bound!

The Sunshine runner in the book is made from The Good Life fabric by Bonnie and Camille of Moda fabrics. Such happy fabrics!   I love it just as much in the red and green fabrics for the look of poinsettias for Christmas!

The Zephyr runner in the book is done up on classic orange and black for autumn and is big enough to be used as a bed runner or perfect for a harvest table! Change up the colors to match the season you want to use it.
