I saw a video tour of Edyta Sitar's studio on YouTube. She is the pattern and fabric designer behind Laundry Basket Quilts and what a space she has!
I was not only envious of her studio, I saw some quilts there that I would like to make. So after viewing, I shifted over to her online shop and here is my haul.
I got the patterns for Wildflower, Dot Dot Dot, and Illuminate. I was really drooling over Dot Dot Dot in the studio tour video and it is moving high up on my to-make list. First step is to cut a circle out of nearly every piece of fabric in my stash, lol. I don't have Edyta's stash so will allow myself to make this over a long period of time. The first decision I need to make is machine or hand applique. I'm leaning towards hand applique and making this my portable project one I finish Flowers for Emma.
I bought the blue floral toile for the border and will use one of the two blue mini dot prints for the binding. The low volume fabrics are from a fabric bundle called Marshmallow Lights; they will augment my stash for the background.
Wildflower and Illuminate will wait until "later."
Wow! You are going to be busy for a long time. It will be fun to applique the dots and it will be a perfect take with you project.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the link to Edyta's video. Very inspiring.
ReplyDeleteLoved the tour of her studio and beautiful fabrics. I did drool over her quilts and yes, it would be hard to pick just one ....love your choices and keep us posted. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI recently watched Edyta's studio tour and was also inspired to try a few of her patterns. I am in love with all of her fabric collections. I'm sure all the projects you have lined up will be great fun and I look forward to following your progress. I am wowed by the Dot pillow and think your idea of cutting one circle from each of your fabrics is a fantastic idea - one that I may have to copy.
