First I will start out with my newest pattern. I absolutely needed something new for Valentine's Day and so this little table runner and pillow was born. Hope you like it. I used fabric from a very sweet sewer that I meant at quilt market. So here is my first yellow addition to this snowy time of year. It has a little bit of yellow mixed in. Also, again this pattern is available in my Etsy and Meylah pattern shops.

Second yellow thing. The second yellow thing I made was a cute Kimberbell pattern. I met her and her sister at quilt market and I have never stopped saying the nicest things about them because they were so so nice. I love this pattern. I actually have a little love banner that I haven't finished but I wanted to hang it up for our sewing group that met last night at my house. It sure is cute. I am in love with yellow right now as I mentioned.
What I really love about this quilt though is that I again got to practice my background quilting. It was very fun and I love the final look it gave this quilt in particular. The stitching really "pops" (truly stands out physically), along with the other appliqué parts.
Also, in my borders I did some circle loops and added that fun swoop heart. I couldn't be happier with how great it feels to make great progress on long-arming and I am feeling tons of relief now because it was shaky at first and I was doubting the whole situation.
Our sewing group was a such a fun thing. We are making Kimberbell's Land of Liberty pattern. I got to meet her at Quilt Market and it was a pleasure to pick her pattern for our group this year. This month went especially well because I was able to hear from others about their progresses this past month. We aim to finish the quilt by the fourth of July just in time to display. Hopefully, I will get pictures at that time to share. Also, I got to gift them that cute heart table runner from last post. I love quilting and sharing it with others is a real joy :)

The heart on your pillow is so adorable! I love it. I love all of it. I think it's amazing you make patterns. I also love the wildlife in your backyard. A little bit of Rush Valley just for you ha ha.
