Sewology

Hi Everyone!
We moved to the Phoenix area last June, almost a year ago!
I joined the Phoenix Modern Quilt Guild and have really been enjoying it, everyone's very friendly :)
I jumped right into the BOM 2018, Sewology.
Lindsey from Pen and Paper patterns designed it, she's in our guild.
I'm happy to announce that I finished the top!!!


One of my favorite processes of making a quilt, is choosing the fabric.
First I bought the background fabric at Quilter's Oasis in Mesa.
I studied the different background options 
and liked the rich look of dark gray.


I had a lot of catching up to do, but had seen this quilt on Instagram so many times and was really excited to make it myself!
I delved into my fabric stash and chose every one of these bold, vibrant colors.


The last step that I had to do to finish my top, was cut out, press and stitch the "button" letters onto the orange fabric.


I wish I had sewn my rotary cutter in another color besides yellow, but I'm still thrilled with the outcome.


My stash is a little lighter, but I still have a lot to work with!
(eye roll...)
Until next week friends, happy quilting!!!
