I Need This

Pin It Now!
Let me just start off by saying that as I typed the title for this blog, it showed that I had used it once before.  It also occurred to me that I don't actually need what I am about to show you, but merely, I just really want it.  All I really need in life is oxygen, food, water, shelter, the Mr, and my iPhone.

But I digress.

I like to sew.  You wouldn't know it from the sheer lack of chatter about it here on my blog [which I plan to change, by the way.], but I do.  I like to sew.  I also like to quilt.  I subscribe to a few crafting blogs and love getting ideas from other people.

The other day I ran across this quilt on Moda Bake Shop's blog...


Two things -- is this not the cutest quilt ever and two, where on earth did someone find ric rac that large??  It is astounding, really, just how wide it is.  [for those of you who aren't familiar with it, ric rac is that white squiggle in the bands of color.]

So I've decided I need to make this quilt.  I love the colors the crafter used.  Hopefully if I make it mine will be just as nice!  Not so sure about the ruffle, though.  While it is charming, it may be out of my league.

  2. That quilt is cute! They probably made that ric rac themselves that's what my aunt always does.
