I`m (mostly) settled into my new sewing room, and it`s oh so lovely. I`ve been sneaking in there to sew whenever I can, and sometimes when I really can`t! It`s so much more to fun to sew than to clean or organize… and I have so many ideas of quilts I want to make! Also my little Etsy shop is depleted of boy quilts so I decided I must remedy that.
The last photo is one of those, and I have a few to show you soon. The middle photo is a fun project I did for myself. I`ve always wanted a vintage dresden plate quilt, but since I`ve never found one at the thrift store, and the nice ones online are highly sought after, I made my own. It`s made from about half vintage fabrics and half new. Pretty happy with how it`s turned out, but now I have to decide if I`m going to hand quilt it. I have my oldest son`s queen sized quilt in the queue to be quilted first, so we`ll see.
I love your Dresden! It's stunningly beautiful.
Very nice. Fun to see others' creative space. I love the white cabinet with the glass doors. And yes, the dresden is beautiful.
Oh, hurray! You totally deserve a sewing room. More sewing for you, I say! I love the vintage dresden. That caught my eye right away. Looks like a fun one to make.
It made me so happy to see a little snippet of where you make beautiful quilts! We live in a teeny home, so I must take out and put away(everything)each time. Thank you for sharing yours! And for almost the same reasons, some day I will make a Dresden of my own! Have a wonderful day!-Jean
Love the fabrics in BOTH of your quilts!! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the quilting.
I too have Dresden Fan quilt on the go and live your country Dresden quilt.
Love the look of your Dresden! Wonderful that it has vintage fabrics mixed with new. Just the little glimpse of your sewing room looks wonderful. My is very hodge podge compared.:)
Lovely pictures!
This was a very inspiring post for me. I love the star and the way you enlarged it, I think the colours on the white background with the pieced back are just amazing. I also love the sewing room, it looks so bright and inviting. Can't wait to see the rest of your WIPs!
