Saturday Bloggers Shopping Spree 2

Another Saturday rolls around and it's time again for the Saturday Bloggers Shopping Spree hosted by Quilts Galore and More (see button on sidebar left). This Friday night and all weekend to midnight Sunday Fab 28 everything in my shop is 20% off! Such a deal! Take 20% off any piece in my spring collection! Take 20% of one of my gorgeous bedspreads! And/or take 20% off a comforter! And please look at the participating shops by clicking on the Saturday Bloggers button to see more great shops and deals.

Meanwhile, look at what I'm making now for spring! I have these lovely golden silks I'm making into a pillow - or maybe two. This is the fabric:




I want to do another piecing piece. I cut two 6" squares of each fabric, and am log-cabining them in opposite fabrics. The solid gold silk is bordered with the patterned silk, and the patterned silk is bordered by the solid gold:















Iron, iron iron:




The first round is done. The next round will be the opposite; the solid will border the pattern and the pattern will border the solid. I'm thinking these will be the front and back of one pillow, or maybe I'll use another silk for the backs of two separate pillows. Hmmm...we shall see....

  1. Such beautiful things! I am sort of looking for a new bedroom set. By sort of, I mean *I* am and my husband is *not*. Good luck with your SBS sale!
