an apron and a sneakie peakie!

I've been so excited to find out what the new Flower Sugar and Atsuko Matsuyama fabric collections are going to look like and my wait is finally over. I just can hardly keep in the excitement!! I've already put my order in and now it is count down till they arrive!! The Atsuko Matsuyama fabrics should be here early to mid October and the new Flower Sugar collection will be here end of Oct. or early Nov.

Here is the sneakie peakie!!

30's collection by Atsuko Matsuyama ~ I love the sweet delicate flowers and the pastel mixed with the bright colors!!

Flower Bouquets

Petite Flowers

Roses and Daisies

Flower Bouquets and Polka Dots


Flower Sugar Fall 2011 ~ I think this may be my favorite of the Flower Sugar collections! I love how this collection includes gray! I also think they will mix well with the new Atsuko Matsuyama fabrics!

Lacy Bouquets

Flower Stripes

Floral Wreaths

Large Flower and Polka Dots



This week I've hardly done any sewing!! So sad!! I really hope I can do much more sewing the rest of the week!! I did do a cute little apron for my dish soap!! After seeing the cute apron and tutorial by Camille, it went straight to the top of my list!! I ended up making two, one for myself and one for Tasha! I couldn't resist, they are just so darn cute!!

Here is the other side as I made it reversible!

I did a mini stipple on mine and straight line quilting on Tasha's, like Camilles. I think both ways turned out cute!! I only took pictures of mine.

Most know I just love searching for vintage finds!! This week at a thrift store I found this pretty hand towel. It looks just like a favorite vintage sheet!! It sure was a highlight of my week finding this treasure!! Here is a close up~


Hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy the rest of your week!

    Hi Kerri from Australia. I have a question for you, will you be stocking the new flower sugar in your etsy store? I really would like to buy some.
    I just bought some fat quarters from you last week, can't wait for them to arrive.
    I love your blog, you have some beautiful projects
