Happier Quilt Finished

In the past few days I've managed to finish up a couple of quilts, get some cards made and rearrange the living room so there will be room for the Christmas tree.

Here is the first of the quilts I finished. This one is for my 8yr old grand niece. It is made from one charm pack of Happier by Riley Blake. The hot pink sashing is from a bed sheet, and the polka dotted backing is also a bed sheet. The binding is another Riley Blake print, Sweet Nothings. I decided to do some simple wavy line quilting on it; my compromise between straight line and practicing my free form. This little quilt measures about 47x47.

Vintage Floral Sheets

Our local thrift store has some competition now. We have two Savers thrift stores that are some-what new to the area. I'm not overly impressed by Savers, but the couple of times I have gone they have had a nice selection of vintage sheets. Today I'm going to show off a few. Eventually I hope to put some fat quarters or half yards up in my Etsy shop, but for now I just like to look at them. The colors have not come out quite true, they are showing up darker than they really are. I've no idea how to fix this...:(
