Tea Cakes, celebrations, curves, sugar and spice

I was so enthralled with school house at market and want to share more of the great quilts and ideas. I took over 400 pictures so have patience with me.
This line of fabric is Tea cakes by Verna Mosquera for WFI lifestyle fabrics.  These first two quilts are all about tea time cakes and candy.  I thought they were so cute and I love the colors of the fabrics.


 


Here are the fabrics in a more traditional quilt.  I love it.

Another Class I went to was called "It's time to make curves"  After seeing these georgeous quilts I had to have the curved template that she designed. 

I was able to find it in her booth on Friday but she was out of the first book.  I wanted it before I start on these.


I think this next quilt is called Moon in the window.  It also uses two sizes of the template.

How fun it this one?


So now I am on the hunt for the Crazy Curves original book.

Remember the fabric Lauren picked out for her quilt?  I was able to attend the presentation of it by It's designer Amanda of the Quilted Fish for Riley Blake.   It was so much fun. 

Do you love this covered button bracelet.  Amanda is so creative.

What a cute quilt.  Amanda themed her presentation on the Mad Hatter.
I don't know if you can see it on this but the green sashing is gathered ruffles.  I think the fabric is so cute.

I may have to copy this pillow. 

Thanks for looking. 
Enjoy Jan!

More from sew night....

I took this quilt from about 3 years ago to quilt night because I am looking for fabric to match the pieces in this.  Everyone is going to look in their stash.  I am gong to do this same pattern but Lana has an accucut with the tumbler die on it so I will use that and cut them a little bigger.  I made this quilt just out of some scraps and although I thought the colors were great the girls said it was kind of "old ladyish."  Meaning it was more my style than theirs.  I had at  about the same time made a very pink girly girl quilt for my toddler granddaughter.  I pulled the quilts out to show her the pink one and she went right to this one and would not even look at the pink one.  Needless to say this is her quilt.  I had to go borrow it from her to take to sew night, with the promise to have it back before bed time.  Don't you love it when that happens.

Claudia made one of her granddaughters this dress like Jeri's from last time.  I love it in the pink lemonade line. Look at those gigantic buttons. To cute.

She also made this modern quilt.  She said you start with a block but not a pattern and just keep adding to it.  I think is is great.  She is appliqueing on the yellow flowers.

Another Claudia quilt made with charm packs.  I am liking this and thinking I should probably do one of these soon. 

Another twister from Lavee.  Sorry for the blurr. 

And another one from LaVee.  I think her favorite part is the back. 

What grandma wouldn't?

She made this baby quilt.  The 3 D bow ties really make it stand out.  This reminds me.  There is  a whole box full of bow tie blocks from long ago and far away somewhere in my closet. Maybe it is time for them to see the light of day.


Jeri brought some of her new fabric to see if it I could use it with the fabric I  have.  What do you think?  The line is called Daydreams by Riley Blake.  I think for sure I need the one is the middle. 
There is still more to come.  We enjoyed it so much because it had been so long since we had been to "sew night."

Ok I usually don't do this but I love the Dr. Suess Fabric

Did I say I love the Dr.Suess Fabric.

There is a give away of this fabric going on over at Dawns Quilt Corner. It is  for a really nice stack of this fabric.  Go on over there if you love it also.  When my children were little we read most of the beginner books many times.  I added this picture of the quilt that I want to make from this fabric for my friends at two peas. 

This fabric makes me happy. I have not seen it IRL just on the internet I hope one of us wins. 

Bonnie  is also having a giveaway of some of the famous Bliss fabric.  This quilt is made with bliss.

Enjoy!
