retro flowers – in progress!

Yikes, no posts yet this week! We snuck away for a mini vacation, and while the time in the car gave me a great opportunity to sew bindings on a few quilts, the rain didn’t make for good photo opportunities of said quilts! So instead, I thought I’d show you a quilt in progress. You might remember that I pulled out these fabrics ages ago, paired with that great Melody Miller typewriter print. I never got around to making a quilt, but the stack stayed stacked, since I loved the prints together.

I realized recently that I had nearly the perfect number of prints for Christina’s beautiful Retro Flowers pattern! I love this pattern, and am really excited to finally get a chance to make one. Christina’s pattern is well written and gives tips to make sewing those curves possible, even for someone like me who hasn’t sewn a lot of curves before.

This one is taking a little longer than the quilts I typically make, but I’m enjoying the process!
