The Mint Needle

Inspiration is all around! Our little tulips have begun their rise. I can't believe that Spring is here! It's all so exciting watching everything awaken from the deep winter sleep. And I can't help but feel a little guilty that I haven't paid much attention to the blog. For example... Every year I have done a post for the first day of Spring, St. Patrick's day, etc...  And guess what? It completely slipped my mind this year. Why, you ask? Because there's sew much going on! The Birchen Quilt is a slow steady process. It's coming together beautifully but I don't work on it all the time.  I'm loooooving Triangles on a Roll. I can't believe how fast it makes projects move along. Also, did you know that there is a CD you can pop into your computer and it will print out any size template? Check out  1,000 Any Size Quilt Blocks  if buying a roll isn't necessary for your piece.  And.... I'm loving everything about these...

The first week of March has already gone? Oh my! It has brought some warmer weather here, in Ohio, & it feels great to see the Sun! I've got a couple awesome things to show you and talk about! This little quilt got finished ...... And this is the proud point one! I've had Alexander Henry's print laying around, (in reference to the first quilt), for such a long time. I'm so glad I was finally able to use it as a panel piece on the back of the mini 'baby' quilt. And nope we're not expecting, which is what i'm asked when friends see this one:) I'm so proud of my mitered corners and the colors are great! Going on..... Have any of you checked out the awesome Birchen Quilt ? Well, it was a sew along with the  Fat Quarter Shop  ; complete with a youtube video. Two thumbs up! A couple of weeks ago, my Instagram feed literally exploded with gorgeous variations of this Birchen quilt. In short, I was hooked & ordered the supplies. ...
