Sunday Stash #15 - I am weak

Off the top of my head, there are a few fabric designers that top my list of must have:  Alison Glass, Anna Maria Horner, Heather Bailey, Kate Spain and Tula Pink.  Amy Butler is right up there, too.  So, of course, if a new line of fabric designed by one of the above comes out, this girl is right there with her credit card.  Because I am weak.  And a Fabricaholic.  I am okay with that.

Pretty Potent by Anna Maria Horner was released recently and you know what my latest stash is, don't you?  Quilt Home recently had a sale on AMH, a good one, but it is over now.  : (  Here is my latest stash:

Chamomile and Aloe Vera - Balm for the soul

Family Unit (LOVE!) and Echinacea

Eucalyptus and Thistle (Hmmm, the one Thistle looks a tad Halloweenish to me.  But I don't like thistles.  Been stung by them before.)

Primrose and Banner Days

I will admit that some of the prints are just okay, while there are others I just love.  After my Kate Spain Daydream adventure, I will be making a king size with the above and these two.

Steel and Black Essex Linen.  With this pattern.

(Pattern can be purchased here at 20% off for PDF:  Pink Chalk.)

This will be for our king size bed.  The pattern is simple and should come together fast. This goes towards my goal of a quilt for every bed in the house.  Seriously!  How can I claim to be a quilter and not have every bed in the house covered?!?  In reading this (which I copied directly from Quilt Home's site) I think this is appropriate for a quilt:  COLLECTION: Pretty Potent. In the Pretty Potent collection, Anna Maria drew inspiration specifically from plants and flowers that are often used for healing. While they possess properties to heal our physical bodies, the very beauty of the plants themselves seems intended to be a balm for the soul. Potent and pretty.

What's in your stash?  Linking up now with Molli Sparkles.

A Tula Pink Finish

Do you ever give yourself urealistic, self imposed deadlines?  I am finding that I do with almost every single quilting and sewing project.  I need to relax!  These self imposed deadlines hanging over my head just need to go!  I mean, seriously!

Well, here is a seriously cute drawstring bag made with Tula Pink's Birds and Bees line.  The pattern is by Jeni Baker of In Color Order.  That link will take you to her tutorial.  For the pattern, which has like 8 different sizes, click on this link here.

It is simple to make.  It is lined, too.  I made it for my Granddaughter.  Her first purse, of sorts for treats, toys, goodies, and whatnots.  I embroidered on the inside my Granddaughter's name with her Mom's phone number in case it gets left behind.  I just love the ladybug fabric and especially the ribbon!  This turned out so cute! 

And it can be washed.  Because if you are a Mom, you know what kinds of things will get put in a little girl's purse.

Linking up now to finish it up Friday at Crazy Mom Quilts.
