happy stitching progress
I finished my hexagon panel for the Green Tea and Sweet Beans quilt, I decided to English Paper Piece this panel because I'm faster at it and it is easier to get all those neat points!
I love the totally random (yet lovingly chosen) mix of fabrics:
I also completed all the Orange Peel blocks:

I'm so happy I decided to mix the modern fabrics with the 30s repro ones, I really love how they play together!
ink - le challenge - a vintage elf and flowery goodness!
It's been a crazy busy month and despite lots of ideas for the ink theme I left it until the last minute again!! I came across a cute vintage elf embroidery pattern on pinterest, it was credited to Crafty Modern but despite lots of googling I can't find the original pattern so that's as much info as I can give.
My daughter was recently given some brilliant pens for her birthday, some of which are glittery! I asked her if I could borrow them and got to work. I traced the image using my lightbox and had lots of fun picking the colours:
Here's a weird lighting shot so you can better see the glitteryness!
I think it makes a cute festive card!
If you've made anything using ink, with the colour ink or that relates to the theme 'ink' in any way you can link up your finished project now at le challenge for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Fat Quarter Shop!
I received more fabric goodness and some yummy Aurifil this week from Pink Castle Fabrics:
from left to right: Floral Bouquet in Blue, Old New 30s by Atsuko Matsuyama; Cherries in White and Red, Old New 30s by Atsuko Matsuyama; Daisy Grid in Gray, Suzuko Koseki for Yuwa; Cottagely Posy in Teal, Priory Square by Katy Jones and Aurifil 50wt #2600 - my favourite colour for hand piecing.
I seem to have developed a thing for florals!! I love the vintage vibes of those Japanese prints and the bright colours of the beautiful Priory Square. I guess these will be finding their way into my green tea and sweet beans quilt too ;)
