Color Love--that's the name of my newest fabric collection with Marcus Fabrics. Here's my sample yardage all laid out on my cutting table, ready to be put to work. Oh, my pretties!
So there is already a plan for Color Love--a block-of-the-month quilt also called Color Love.
Yesterday I worked on the applique' blocks. It was so easy to just peel and fuse the shapes in place and then buttonhole stitch around the patches. Now, mind you, I am not the most proficient person when it comes to buttonhole stitching, but I did manage to get the job done. Here's a block and some close ups.
