ANOTHER FINISH!

Okay...I know I said a while ago that I never use the same quilt pattern twice!  There are exceptions to every rule, though, right? And this is one of them!

 
 
I just can't get enough of these granny squares!  I just love them...and I love making them! I think my favourite part is picking out the colour combinations.  For this one I used my vintage feed sack fabrics and Kona snow for the sashing!  I believe this is granny square quilt number three (with more to come)!
Linking up with the fabulous Amanda Jean!
Have a great weekend everyone!

ONE NEW THING WEEK 30!

My new thing this week was to try QAYG (Quilt As You Go for my non-quilting readers)! I was a little pressed for time but managed to finish this bib!
 

 
I threw it together pretty quickly without paying much attention to my fabric choices but it turned out quite cute in the end! I enjoyed the QAYG process and want to give this another go when I have more time!
 
In quilting news, here's a little peak of a recent almost finish...
 
 
 I`m so addicted to these granny square blocks! This is my third quilt using them! I think choosing the colour combinations is my favourite part.  Quilting them is a bit of a challenge though because of all those bias edges. For this quilt I dug into my growing collection of 1930s vintage repro fabrics!  This one is a baby quilt but I think I need to make one of these for myself!
