ADORNit Ruffle Pillow

Heather made this stinkin' cute ruffle pillow from all ADORNit fabric and from their Capri book.
She will be teaching this adorable pillow in a class. I will share the dates when she has everything lined up. 

Zig zags aren't going anywhere!  I think they add a nice variety to all the patterns of the pillow.

Linking up to Crazy Mom Quilts, Finish it Up Friday.

ADORNit Flower Bag

I love finding a new bag pattern. I made the Sassy Flower Everyday Tote from Adorn It's book, Capri

I used a ruffled trim on the handles....SO CUTE!!!

The the print I used on the inside is my favorite....I just love all those colors!

We will be teaching several classes using projects from this book so stay tuned for more information.

You Are What You Quilt...

So in college I had an awesome watercolor teacher that pointed out a very good point.  She said, "You are who you are, and who you are comes out in your art!"  How true that statement is!  As we students would present our pieces, she would always point out what we were wearing...and sure enough 80% of the time we were dressed with the same color pallet!

I wanted to make a quilt for our new Spring window and was having trouble seeing anything that would fit just right.  So on my day off I grabbed my mom and we headed to the Quilt Barn.  With heads together, we were able to pick some colors that were quite pleasant.  As I was cutting the fabric I needed, my mom said, "Look at your shirt!"  And would you believe it...I had picked the same colors I was wearing.  I always tell Tara that you are who you are...and this experience proves it!  So if I see you buying fabric the same as what you're wearing...I WILL tell you!!

So here's the finished product!  The quilt pattern is "Spin Cycle" by Cluck Cluck Sew and the fabric is just random pieces I pulled.  It is now in our "April showers bring May flowers" window.  (More to come about our window"  So if you're in the area come check it out!

And be sure to check out our retreat coming up with Adorn It. It is going to be a great event

Savonnerie

We recently got in pre-cuts of Savonnerie by Sandy Klop of American Jane Patterns!  The colors in this line are so rich and saturated.  It has a very French feel! We have Layer Cakes, Jelly Rolls, and Charm Packs.  I think it would be perfect in the kitchen....a table topper maybe!

Pre-cuts can be purchased on our Etsy page or on our Website.  Or stop on in at our brick and mortar location!  I think the print on top and the one below are my favorite!
