As promised:

These coasters are in the shop, with more to follow a bit later tonight. I just ADORE Anna Maria Horner's new line of fabrics, Innocent Crush. I am definitely going to make my long-awaited throw quilt out of these fabrics. (Yes, a quilt for my very own self!)

New Coasters in the shop

It has been unseasonably warm around here, the trees are blossoming, and I've been wanting to have a tea party. Not a mud-pie tea party, but a real one with other adult girls there, drinking some sort of wonderful iced tea... Of course, it hasn't actually happened, but my dream has translated into a few new coaster sets in the shop. Check them out!

Sewing Update

There are a few more coaster sets in the shop. This round was frustrating because something kept going wrong with my sewing machine. We now have a few new sets of coasters at our house with little mess-ups in their quilting. It is nice having some more for myself, though!

And this year I'm actually thinking ahead - here's a sneak peek at what I've been working on:

Photo Shoot

Today I got the chance to take pictures of more coaster sets. I've really started to enjoy the photography aspect of running an online shop - it requires a different type of creativity than sewing, and I've enjoyed the process of learning to take better shots.

All the fabrics used in these coasters remind me of a different project from which they were left over. Funny how a tiny bit of cotton can hold so many memories.

All the patchwork coasters can be found here - and there are a few more sets yet to be listed.

Coasters in the Shop!

Ah, it feels good to finally get these listed in the shop. I made these coasters a few months ago when I decided I needed to do something about my overflowing scrap stash. It was so fun that I ended up making 12 sets! Each one is like a tiny little quilt. Keep your eyes peeled over the next few days as I get them all up for sale.

That tiny floral print is one of my favorite fabrics of all time... Can't you just picture one of these under a steaming cup of tea? Yum. :)
