It’s hard to believe that International Quilt Market is just around the corner–I can hardly wait! The last of the market sewing fabrics arrived this morning, and I’ve been busy cutting out the last quilt. I still have a few bindings to make, but everything is almost checked off the list! Since I can’t share anything I’ve been working on I found a few photos (because I just can’t seem to blog without photos)! This first little sneak peek is something I was working on before the market sewing started…of course it still needs a binding!
And this is one of my favorite things lately…see the top container marked Moda Bella Bleached White 97? I put all my little left-overs in there, and it’s come in so very handy. When I need small pieces it seems I’ve been able to cut them all from my scrap bin! I’ve also started a bin for Moda Bella Bleached White 98 since I recently discovered Bella 97 and 98 are very, very different shades of white!
And finally, something I found at a very reasonable price a couple of months ago…a hand-crafted quilt rack, beautifully finished. I still haven’t decided which quilts I’m going to display on it, but I had to put a few on just to take a picture.
Well…that’s all for now…back to sewing! I’m hoping to have time to make a couple of bags to take to market after the quilts are finished…we’ll see about that…Have a great day!

Great quilt rack. I've been looking for something like that. Is it a one-of-a-kind or do you have a source?
