Firstly, exams this week so I will be back blogging more by the end of the week.
I have mentioned the pinwheel sampler quilt I want to make. Today I ordered the first lot of fabric for it :-) I'm so excited! I first thought of some Kaffe Fassett fabric for the pinwheels but today I found Rhapsodia in Blue.
Isn't it pretty? I fell in love with the above fat quarter bundle from Sew Modern Online but their shipping to Australia was going to cost $49! I was so devastated because they also had the kona solid I really wanted (Kona Steel White). I then popped over to Fat Quarter Shop and ordered the same blue 10 fat quarter pack but two of the fabrics are different.
I really want to get the two that is missing from this pack - the grey of the bottom right fabric and the blue of the middle bottom fabric. I'll have to get them in half yard cuts unless our local quilt shop has them in fat quarters.
I also bought a yard of Moda Bella solid in off white. However I've just realised I might need more than that. The fat quarters and the Bella solid are for the pinwheels only. I still don't know the exact layout of this quilt but I would like either a lattice or sashing which will be different fabric to the pinwheel blocks. They probably will be just complementary solids.
That is all for now. Hope you all are having a good weekend.
