Custom Bibs

I've been making custom order bibs out the wazoo lately, but they are so much fun. i love creating things that I know other people are going to use and love.

Why did this take me so long?

I've always considered myself a borderline techie. I like to figure out how to do stuff like html code for fun. Yes that's sick I know. So the other day as I was photographing fabric for a client's quilt it suddenly struck me..."Why not use close up photographs of the fabrics to construct a computer mock up of the blocks to give the client an idea of what the finished quilt will look like?"

I mean DUH! How long have I been doing this for? But I'm excited because it opens so many new avenues for myself and designing quilts. I can try out color combos and patterns without having to commit. So here is what I came up with...

BLOCK 1

BLOCK 2

New treasury

Make sure you check out Morgan's new photography shop...her stuff is awesome. She inspired this treasury, fair dinkum!

Fabric Photo Albums

I've been adding some more photo albums too...

Space Aliens

Starry Math Genius

50's Retro Space Boy

Celestial Time Traveler Quilt

Finally got this one finished! It is one of the many quilt tops I found in the basement just waiting to be finished... Click here for the etsy listing http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10404411

This quilt is for our etsyFAST March challenge - Fairy Tales. Although this may be more mythology than fairy tale, it reminded me of the stories of all the gods and goddesses that lent their names to the zodiac chart. My favorite has always been the story of Orion and the scorpian; my favorite constellation and my zodiac sign! To see other etsyFAST entries enter etsyfast or marchchallenge in the item tag line.

I know the second photo is horribly crooked, I've been waiting for another sunny day to photograph it again.

Purplicious!
