I love Summer...

There are so many things I love about Summer. For one you can get a nice photo shoot of your quilt outdoors most any day. My Kaleidoscope quilt is done and bound and goes nicely with my Sweet Potato vine. You can find out how I made the block here.The quilting is simple - straight lines diagonally and 1/4" from the seam lines.
More lime green in the garden!
I have a bit of Summer reading thanks to a couple of give-aways I recently won. Thanks to Sinta from Pink Pincushion and Kathy from Pink Chalk Fabrics.
I've also made my Summer sewing list. Looks pretty long! We'll have to see how much gets done in these lazy days of Summer. (Love those lazy days too!)

    It turned out beautifully. Yay for Summer! I'm a Summer baby, too. Every thing feels better on days with the windows open.
