I've wanted to make a brown and teal quilt for awhile. This project seemed like a good opportunity to try out that color combination. Many of these fabrics have been in my stash for years.
The other new project that's still in the planning stages is the Guild BOM for 2026. I agreed to take that on again for next year. I have the quilt designed in EQ. Next year's BOM will be a sampler quilt. Since that will mean a new block each month, I wanted to get going on that this year and make the blocks while I was writing the instructions. My plan is to start with the first couple of blocks this month. Here's my fabric pull for that project.
All this fabric needs to be washed and pressed. I'm hoping to get to that in the next couple of weeks.
Most of my projects are still at the stage they were at the last time I blogged, so not much to share there. But Grad Girl finished her first quilt top while she's been living at home.
She did all the embroidery by hand last winter. The embroidery and quilt pattern is Ingrid's Wildflowers from Missouri Star. I helped her change the quilt pattern to include corner stones. This is only her second ever sewing machine project (her first one was a pincushion). She did such a great job with it. Her plan is to finish it as a wall hanging for her bedroom. She wants to try a three yard quilt next. Probably won't start on that till I go visit her in October (at least that's the plan now).
That's it for me this week. We will be moving Grad Girl this week, so I'll probably be scarce in blogland for a bit. Linking up with Monday Design Wall and Patchwork & Quilts.
