4x7 Sewing Challenge - Week 2

2/14/2015

We're halfway done with the challenge! How is everyone doing with their goals? I have to admit that I did very little longarming this week - I think only two days - but I absolutely hit my 30 minutes a day of selfish sewing, just mostly on my domestic. (Though one of the longarming days was a few hours' worth, so I think I'm still pretty much on track overall ; )

This adorable little mini was my focus this week, and in between finishing up my Layers of Charm quilt and the matching throw pillows, I plugged away at this each day. I'm not usually drawn to working on holiday themed projects, but when I saw the version posted by Pink Door Fabrics, I realized it would be a fun way to use the mini charm pack of Valentine fabric that a Stash Bee friend had sent me last year.

As a bonus, I've been participating in Project Leasa's Sew My Stash 2015 challenge in order to whittle down what's on hand in my studio, and she's currently hosting the #SewMyStash2015PrecutsParty, so this will be my entry. I used a mini charm pack of Deb Strain's Surrounded by Love, plus some of Carolyn Friedlander's Crosshatch for the background and Dear Stella's Mini Confetti Dots for the binding.

I love the fabric you used for the backing. At first glance, I thought it was snow flakes but then I realized it's flowers! I think that's perfect for Valentine's day in the northeast! It could be snowing, or the crocuses could be poking their silly heads up! It'll be years before we see anything poking their heads up with all of this snow!

Your project looks great! Thanks for the continued motivation. Working on my week 2 update post now. I wish my report was as flashy as yours is. :-)
