This week I'm working on a pillow cover for the West Atlanta Modern Quilt Guild Swap which is next Thursday. Any size pillow cover, any fabric, any technique - if you're local you should think about coming. We have a fun and talented group getting together! So I had this pile of AMH scraps that I was saving for the "right" project and I thought this would be perfect.
I'm making a quilt-as-you-go pillow and it's a technique I've never tried before. So far, so good! But I think I should give Anna Maria most of the credit, I mean can you go wrong putting all her gorgeous fabrics together? I think not. I can't wait to see all the fantastic pillow covers that I know these girls will bring - I'll have a full reveal of how my pillow turned out next week, after the swap.
We're also doing a challenge with Blend Fabrics Hip Hop Holiday line, fabric given out next week to all who want to participate. We're so lucky to have Blend as a hometown fabric company and we're excited to work with them! You can find the WAMQG blog and meeting info here.
Also I'm participating in Ali's Stash Match this month - so many beautiful stash stacks over there, go look at ASquaredW! If you're wondering which stack is mine all you need to do is look at the fabrics I used today as one giant hint :-) There's a giveaway involved - Good luck!
Hope everyone is surviving their week so far, loads of kids back to school today - I can feel the collective mama sighs of relief washing over the city ;-)
Thanks for stopping by!
Linking up with Lee at Freshly Pieced for WIP Wednesday.
That is going to be one beautiful cushion!
