Rosy Cheeks Quilt

 

Rosy Cheeks is a sweet and sunny collection from Poppie Cotton designed by Lori Woods.
It is one of my favorites that Poppie Cotton has released. 


The prints are absolutely adorable including florals, a tea cup print, and that adorable girl print.
I wanted to  highlight the prints,  so I designed a simple quilt that showcases each print.  


The cornerstones are 3" hearts and the quilt is an easy piecing project.
The Cornerstone Quilt will be available soon!




The scalloped binding seemed perfect for such a whimsical quilt!  I used a tutorial at Diaryofaquilter.com - "How to calculate a scalloped quilt border"

Cloudburst Rainy Day Purse and Gathered Zipper Pouch

 

 

Hi! Today I'm sharing the purses I made with the adorable new line of fabric “Cloudburst” from Jillily Studios.


The prints are a brilliant combination of umbrellas, rain clouds, florals and a cherry print for added cuteness.


I decided to make two different projects – a purse and a zipper pouch : )


The Rainy Day Purse was designed for Stitch magazine. Stitch magazine no longer exists but you can purchase the pattern on the Sew Daily website.


The umbrella features my favorite print from the line – The umbrella print. The raindrops and umbrella prints make the perfect border for the umbrella border.


The shell of the purse highlights the adorable rain cloud print in blue. The outside pocket is the perfect size for a compact umbrella or your phone and features a sweet gathered top.

I added a loop and d-ring and hung a fun cherry zipper pull which I purchased from Rose Garden Patchwork.



The sweet little pouch features the cherry trio from my book Super Cute Paper Piecing.

I added ric rac trim for a little extra cuteness!

The gathered pouch is the perfect mix of romantic and sweet. It is a great choice if you have a special print or small quilt block to feature.

I loved making projects with “Cloudburst”. I hope you do too!

Happy Sewing!
