The First Day of Summer

What are we thinking of the first day of Summer? What any red blooded, American Quilt Shop is thinking about - winter! Moda's holiday lines are already here and we are showcasing their Jovial Quilt.

What it looks like in real life.

First you cut on the fold, discard the other triangle

Put the folded triangle between 2 pieces of background fabric and sew

Open the block on the stitched line, trim the tree

Trimmed and pressed tree

Add stem

Make pinwheels - fold square in half and fold end points to middle

Sew folded triangles to corners

 This is a fun quilt to do while beating the summer heat indoors!

They're Hitched!

Sarah and Craig had a glorious day! The reception at The Feast at Roundhill was exceptional, we highly, highly recommend them. The whole weekend went off without a glitch, which if you know our family, is very unusual.

Ok there was one glitch but it was the end of the night so it really doesn't count. Cousin Lou getting funky on the dance floor, shared a bit too much of his wine.
