Blogger's Quilt Festival


It's Blogger's Quilt Festival Time! Here's my entry (I'm #155 this time!) - my Values Quilt made with Kaffe Fassett and Vintage fabrics mixed together (originally blogged here). This was a gift for a friend's new baby, but I have to admit, I had a very difficult time letting go of it. And I immediately started making one for myself to keep - using Amy Butler's Love fabric - coming soon!!

If you are new to visiting my blog, welcome! You can click here to view all of my quilts or click here to view my most recent projects. I am a soon-to-be 30 year-old mommy. I am raising two adorable children (ages 4 and 8 months) and always trying to find time to run my photography business and make quilts for my loved ones.

Be sure to check out the other entries in the quilt festival...... it's amazing to see all of the talented quilt makers from around the world.

    what a beautiful quilt! I have only recently been turned on to Kaffe Fassett and he has given me a new appreciation for the purple.
