The weather has been less than ideal for the beach here in the Gulf. I’ve been sewing some rows and finished them this morning.
I’ve been collecting fabric for Roan’s quilt for quite some time. Fabric for boys has improved dramatically over the years, but I added loads of dots. I included some bits of clothing, mostly pjs that I’ve made and he’s outgrown.
Some of my favorites:
Actually an old Joann fabrics flannel that is good quality. Something I wish they would have stuck with. Some Japanese fabrics.
Love the Little Scouts fabric. Roan use to carry a little bunny he called Miss Lilly. She’s still around but dragons seem to be the choice doll now for sleeping.
He’s driving me slightly crazy at the moment, but was cute when he came to me with the “r” is for roan stamped on his face. I’ll try for sewing the rows together tomorrow.
Hope you all had a good Holiday filled with family (even if they drive you a little nuts).

You have some really cute prints in there-it should be beautiful!
Kelly says
Love it, what a great selection of prints. I adore that bear hanging onto bunny, that is toooooo cute!
What is the solid, is it a kona cotton or a linen cotton blend?
Hope the weather improves for you. 🙂
