My Fast and More Fun blog day

 I was so happy to be included in this blog display for Villa Rosa Designs. Love another opportunity to rummage in my stash for something fun.  

These are the 5 pattern cards we were given to choose from.  And I was excited to choose.  ( And like kids in a candy store,  I wanted to do them ALL.)  

And rummage around  I did to find something for me and something to give. 

First off, being as it was last month, a couple of Valentine charm packs were found to make this great pattern for a table runner.   These were Flirtations designed by Sandy Gervais many years ago.  The colors remind me of strawberries and chocolate: great combinations. 

It was great to arrange patterns and colors balancing them just right.  And I did it a few times to create the length I needed for a table runner to fit my table.  I added a brown inch strip for making the flange to frame the blocks. Lastly a contrasting red border and brown binding finished up the top. 

As it was a geometric and simple design, I just quilted it by stitching in the ditch. And the binding was sewn while watching tv. 

              

I love it!  Yeah! fabrics that needed to be used for a holiday!  Just what I needed. 

And for my second creation, I selected the pattern Gypsy and had these leftover fabrics from a quilt for my grandsons when they were toddlers. Bright boy colors and designs just ready for another boy!   Originally, it was a layer cake and yardage.  

It made a perfect baby quilt: 

It was easy to utilize the group of fabrics called Rockets and Robots.  I balanced the colors having the same print on opposite sides of the design. 

The back was yardage pieced to match it. 

The quilting designs were just loop de loops using a King Tut variegated thread. 

The quilt is rather puffy which I like as I used a wool batting. 

I did add a circular piece of fabric to the center as the focus. 

Off to space I go!  

Thanks to Tricia of Villa Rosa for including me in the hop! 

These are easy and quick patterns to make. I'm sure you will enjoy them.
