I have been putting off getting my serger cleaned but decided it was time! I also figured I could use a sewing break. Well after 2 days I'd had enough of a break and really needed to work on something so I decided to start in on a new quilt. (I've been mostly sewing clothes recently and really need my serger to do that!) I do love to quilt but have recently discovered a major love for sewing my kids clothing. But anyway, back to the quilt! I bought this pattern at one of my local quilt shops The Cottage Rose it is called 'Up and Down Stair Case' and is a jelly roll pattern which I'm not always crazy about but was drawn to this one. I used a Roof Top garden jelly roll by Moda which I bought at Burgundy Buttons . I added the pops of white because it seemed to need it. I love how it turned out! It is a nice lap sized quilt and I'll post a picture of it again once I've got it quilted up.
Hope my serger comes home soon. I've got some major clothing sewing I want to do!
Super cute quilt Amanda! And Welcome to the blogger club :)
