::Marimekko::

Does this scrap make my wall look small?

I cracked up when I received what Erica from Finn Style called scraps.  I stretched this one on a frame from the art supply store, completely ignoring Jefe asking me how I knew it was square.  Its location in the house is yet to be determined, but for now I can gaze at it while sitting in the dining/living room area.

  I had no clue this hexagon print would be this scale, but it looks lovely on the table for now.

I’m thinking of adding more Marimekko to my stash with Finn Style’s Marimekko summer sale.

I’ve taken to this Peacock Blue color throughout the house.  It started with painting Roan’s room.  I had about six different blues up and Roan told me to stop asking him which one he liked best and just pick one.  I couldn’t help but try one more and instantly new this was the one.

The World Cup posters pop well with it.  Speaking of which, I’ve got a game to watch!

Happy almost weekend!

    WOW, the piece by Finn is fantastic! I wish I could do something that looked as good with some of MY scraps. I’ll have to give it a try sometime….might need some better ‘scraps’ too.

  13. HI, just to ask you something. I saw in a latest post, a cow, made in patch.
    can you tell me where I can find the pattern of this quilt?
    and , also, I like very well your blog.
    amitiés, Cathy from France

      Hmmmmm, I’ve never made a patchwork cow, so I’m not quite sure where to find a pattern. Are you sure it wasn’t another blog?

    Non-quilting question…I am looking for a 2015 Woman’s FIFA poster, all I have found so far are $300, am I looking too soon, or is there somewhere online that sells them? Would like to buy it for our daughter. Didn’t expect this would be a difficult task, or I clearly just don’t know where to look.

    1. sewkatiedid says:

      Hmmmmm, you’ve stumped me. We just bought ours of the FIFA website. I’d wait. Good luck!
