"Fancy That"....

I had a sewing marathon today.

 

I cut this quilt out a week or so ago.  It's called  Fancy That.

 

Last night I laid out all the pieces to organize the colors.

 

 

Before heading off to bed, I pinned a few of the pieces together along with using my Marilee numbered pins to number the rows.

 

 

My sewing marathon started at 6:00 this morning and by the end of my day, I had a completed quilt top.

 

 

This is a great quilt for showcasing those fabrics that you love, but don't want to cut up.  It's pretty easy and a fun, contemporary quilt. I have been wanting to do a yellow and gray quilt and when I saw my friend Ruthie over at http://threadsofmine.blogspot.com/  do this quilt at one of our retreats, I knew I had to have it.  I am not usually a contemporary quilt maker, but I do like this quilt.  It's so light and refreshing. 

 

I think I can see this quilt in Christmas fabrics, too.  But for now, I have way too many other things on my plate to think about that....but you never know!

 

Next.....another baby quilt for my daughter.
