Sometimes I just ‘Love It’

Do you ever do that?

Just Love something to bits?

I do love a lot of things but my latest ‘Love It’ is my Vintage Dishes quilt. I bought the pattern and a FQ bundle

Sew Cherry fabric and Maximum Attachment Storage

with my birthday money I got and began sewing it and the more I got done the more I just couldn’t help but say Oh I ‘Love it’!

The dishes blocks all came together nicely

Then it was the little cups…..but I didn't take any pictures of these…..

finally it was the zig zag borders

zig zag

then it was put them all together….

So now I have to sort out the batting and backing and then its off to the quilters…..I wouldn’t even think about doing the quilting myself. Its too big for a start.

I think doing the pattern in the fabrics that Lori Holt did hers in makes it all the more delightful.

The fabric range is Sew Cherry by Lori Holt from Bee In My Bonnet for Riley Blake. Wish I got a commission for this plug but alas I don’t.

So what are the things you say ‘Love It’ to?

Hugs to all……
