I finally started work on my next quilt project. It is actually two quilts, one for each of my cousin's two super sweet kids. Sarah likes horses & her favorite color is blue. Finding fabric for hers was a cinch, and I even steered clear of stereotypically "girly" flowery prints. Feminine, maybe, but only one could really be called floral.
I'm really in love with these patterns & excited to see how it all comes together. I just hope Sarah likes them as much as I do.
Isaac likes Star Wars, the Clone Wars cartoon series. Yeah... nothing at the fabric stores. So, I found a twin sheet set & am going to cut that up. Isaac's favorite color is also blue so I want to find different fabrics (so its not all matchy with his sister's), in the blue family, that have a touch more masculine theme. This, I've found, is not that easy.
I don't want just solid colors but I also don't want cutesy theme fabric with tractors or cowboys or robots (those are easy to find, incidentally) just cool, basic theme-free patterns. This is my quest and I shall succeed (hopefully without too much plaid)!
