Bee in My Bonnet Row Along - Baskets

I'm playing catch up......I completed my little row of baskets.

I tried to choose fabric that represented what a basket might hold.

This one might hold some strawberries.....

This basket could be used to pick flowers.

This basket is for picking cherries.

This basket just looks pretty :)

This basket is for apple picking.

Here's another basket to use for picking flowers.

Could this basket be used to hold cotton balls, or bubbles?  Lol!

Here are my seven little baskets all in a row.

I've chosen the fabric for the skinny border and the scalloped border......stay tuned!

One Yard Apron

This is one of my favorite apron patterns!

I decided to make one of my own.

I love the jumbo pom poms!

Do you think I'd get any looks if I wore my apron to the grocery store?  I love the different prints of the wide waistband and the tie, matching the different prints on the pocket.

I really like the wide bow tie at the back, very vintage :)

The apron is really easy, quick and fun to make!

Riley Blake Mystery block of the month - April

These blocks are easy and I love choosing the colors and prints!

I'm using so much pink, but am going to add a bold, bright color for the sashing and border.

April

March

February

January

I know that May's block will be incorporating selvages.

I am so excited because I have been saving mine for a few years :)

Kylie's Blessing Day

Kylie looks like a precious little pioneer baby!

This is Kylie's family :). My son Addison, my daughter in law Mabulane, and her big sister, 2 year old Neo. Aren't they a beautiful family?

My mother is visiting from Montreal, we were all really happy that she was able to be in attendance at our family activity!

My husband flew here just for Kylie's blessing :)

I am pretty happy today!

Look at Kylie's beautiful head of hair, it is so soft!

Kylie is so pretty! She smiles a lot but I wasn't able to capture any smiles!

I love this photo of Kylie, it shows off her big brown eyes.

She looks so cute in her slip with her little chubby baby arms.

She is the most cuddly baby to hold.

I sure will miss all of my precious grandchildren, I live a nine and a half drive away.

We took my mother's photo with all of her great grandchildren, except for Kylie who was sleeping.

Aren't grandchildren grand!!!

Pine Needles Quilt Shop

I want to show you one of my favorite quilt shops.

Pine Needles has relocated to a new building at Gardner Village in West Jordan, Utah.

I just love the butter yellow walls with the faux fireplace and pink upholstered chair. Doesn't this look inviting? It's the first thing you see when you walk into the shop.

I love chevron, notice all the chevron in the quilts?

Isn't the hardwood floor gorgeous?

What a cute quote!

Look at the vintage kitchen utensils, overflowing with fat quarters.

The store is so much more spacious, with eye candy everywhere!

Isn't this "modern asterisk" quilt lovely, it's being offered as a class.

This bed quilt is adorable! I bought a piece of every single bolt at the bottom of the bed, Tasha Noel's "Red Riding Hood".

My 5 year old grand daughter Kennedy came with me to the quilt shop, she loves to look at fabric! She is standing in the room where kids are allowed to play. There is a little wooden kitchen with play food, blocks and little wooden dolls to dress.

What sweet little aprons.

I've only shown you a little of the quilt shop, there is so much more!

If you are ever in the area, I would encourage you to visit! It is definitely worth it, there is so much to inspire you at this shop :)

Riley Blake Design Block of the Month - March

I am really enjoying the RBD block of the month.

This block was so quick to measure, cut and sew ♥

The name of the block is Simplicity.

I am designing all of my blocks in pinks.

I'm going to choose a totally different color for the sashing!

You can see the block on RBD's blog here.
