For 2 days after returning from vacation, I was basically wiped-out. Whether it was travel fatigue or let down from all the excitement, I don't know, but I didn't really have the energy for much.
But then, catching up on my blog-reading, I got thinking that if I just started sewing something new, maybe I'd snap out of my fog. And then I saw Camille Roskelley's post with her new Daysail patterns.
It was Mini Saltwater that caught my eye. At 15" square, I figured it would be a quick jump-start back into the studio. Though the pattern calls for fat eighths or 10" squares for the blocks, what I had were partial and full charm packs of most of Camille's fabric lines. I like mixing them up so with that thought, Saltwater went scrappy.
Abstutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love that first shot Debbie! Is that your vegetable patch or allotment? Love the mini - just perfect especially given Camille is off on her own adventures at the moment.
ReplyDeleteAll Camille's fabric lines go so well together, this looks great!

You crack me up. . . and AMAZE me! Two days after an international trip and you're making a quilt. So impressive, especially when it's something so cute as this. Of course, I love how you hung it on a sign for its photoshoot--fabulous!
ReplyDeleteGlad you have recovered from your trip, and hope you brought home many sweet and good memories.

I'm sure I saw this pattern when Camille released it and didn't really look twice. But yours has just wowed me! I'm going back to look at the pattern again!
