Monday Is All About Fabric #3- Little Cove

I have taken stock on the colors missing from the bolts of fabrics on my shelf and I noticed that turquoise (surprisingly) is not something I have enough of. I like to use the bolts I keep on hand for quilt backs.  I ordered a few bolts from Free Spirit fabrics for a custom fabric collection….

Some quilts just take time, and maybe that’s exa Some quilts just take time, and maybe that’s exactly what we need. I made Dilly Dally slowly, in the in-between moments, with quiet hands and a busy heart. Each block gave me a reason to pause.

The long journey is complete. 💛 Dilly Dally is The long journey is complete. 💛Dilly Dally is finished, front to back, and I couldn’t be more in love. This version uses Jellybean Meadow for both the quilt top and the wide back, and every stitch feels like sunshine and wildflowers. 🌼If you’ve been dreaming of making your own, kits are ready and waiting.
