Ta-da! Another finish :) And this one took less than 2 weeks start to finish. Thanks to everyone for your nice comments when I was designing this one.
I'm slow to jump on trends, but I do love how this zig-zag turned out.The back is a fun red polka-dot and I didn't let any of those HSTs go to waste!
For the quilting, I did straight line zig zags only through the cream areas.
Hand-sewn binding in a coordinating gray print.

OK, so are you ready for the big announcement?!?
Maybe I should rephrase that..... am I ready for it?!?
Ready or not....
Yes, we're expecting our first baby - due in March. We are very excited, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little terrified too. I have already started the nesting process which brings me to the next order of business:
I'm trying to downsize my fabric stash. Please take a peek in my fabric shop - I have Art Gallery Fabrics, vintage sheets, and lots of destash & scrap packs for sale. And more coming soon!
Linking up at Freshly Pieced, Confessions of a Fabric Addict, and Crazy Mom Quilts.
