oh yes... the bug has hit.. and when Sherry sent me a photo of the quilt she did with my "Eat Your Fruits and Veggies" Charm pack I sort of went a bit crazy!
IT is SO CUTE! And after sharing Cottage Mama's quilt in my newsletter this week.. well I think the inevitable 'Sew Along' was bubbling and just broke to the surface!
I do believe.. it's time for a "Charm-A-Long"! Fun?
FUN!
Cottage Ma-Ma's quilt is on the top right. photos HERE
Sherry's quilt is on the bottom left. It is a pattern from Loft Creations called "Sparkle Plenty" available to purchase HERE
And my Box of Chocolate's table mat on the bottom right was made with JUST ONE CHARM pack! That is in my Fast Forward Quilts book .. do you have it? CLICK HERE to see the book
This will work just Like "Traffic Jam" and my Improv Strippy quilt that you did with me in my newsletter .... I give you bits and it's a mystery!
So... want the details?... as they stand tonight?
Of course you do.. read on!
FIRST - you need CHARM PACKS
and a solid or tonal fabric that works WITH your charm packs.
CLICK HERE to buy my charm packs... I suggest having at least 2 packs to work with. Or get out the charms you already have.. but I'd love to see what you do with MY fabric.. wink!
I will have to figure out some yardage for the companion fabric. If you are buying solid charms you need the same as the print. THEN at least 1 to 2 yds of solid fabric to do with your charm packs..
I need a set of working names with 'Charm" in them... what do you have for me?
SECOND -I need a 'Charming Name'.
A phrase, Song title or words, saying.. some things with CHARM in them.
THIRD - share the fabrics you plan to use in my Flickr Group. I've not used my flickr group much and decided it's time to give us all a place to share pictures! CLICK HERE and join the group
Get in on the fun at my Facebook page HERE
AND at my online quilt group HERE
Are you ready to have some fun with me? Good!
