It's no secret that some of my favorite fabrics are
novelty foods and batiks.
I decided to share them and made these sweet
baskets for my friend who loves purple
and my niece who loves blue.
A peek at the inside of each basket.
Speaking of novelty food fabrics, I picked up these fun
newly released fabrics at the quilt show.
I don't drink beer, but my dear hubby says it tastes good
with his pizza when we go out to a restaurant.
The cold beer will go well with the
pizza fabric in my stash.
Those pixie sticks, red vines and pickles
look almost edible.
One of the Quilt shop booths at the show was giving out
a free fat qtr to everyone with a coupon.
Good thing I saw the coupon inside the
program before we left the show and
selected this cute artsy fabric.
I started this little Christmas stitchery on linen back in
December and finally put the finishing touches on it.
This stitchery was a free pattern by Gail Pan Designs here.
I recently picked up my Stars and Hearts quilt
from the quilter. I love the Sharon Schambers
Pantograph I chose for the quilting.
I finished it up last year and finally
got it to the quilter in January.
My scrappy pieced back.
I hope you're having a lovely spring day!

Cute baskets and novelty prints!!
Great projects Kim!! I love the quilting she did on the Stars & Hearts. I also love the twizzler fabric :0)
Crispy
Busy girl. I like the baskets. And the food fabric makes me hungry!!!
Wow, Kim, you have been so buys and productive lately! I bet your friend and niece will love their new baskets. Your quilt turned out gorgeous! You must be so happy to get it back. BTW, love that pickle fabric and the artsy one too!
I've made one of those baskets, they are so much fun. Yours turned out very nice! Also, those novelty food fabrics are incredibly realistic. I guess one has to attend quilt shows to find fabrics as unique as those. I don't see anything like them in the quilt shops. I love them!
Looks like you've been staying busy in your sewing room. Everything looks so, so nice. I especially like the cute little baskets.
what fun baskets. I love them. I know I've seen that pattern somewhere, was it on Moda Bake Shop? I'm thinking it was a free pattern somewhere (pays me to think, doesn't it? LOL)
I think the quilting on your stars and hearts quilt is awesome. And what I really like is the scrappy back you did. I love that's it's just scrappy and fun.
Your quilting is amazing and brings joy to the people that own your work! xxo

I love scrappy pieced backs!
Your baskets are so cute! I don't know why I've never sat down and made one myself. You can use them for so many things.
Sweet baskets. They are a lot of fun to make with all kinds of fabrics.
The new fabric you got is so neat. I love the pickles.
Lovely quilt too.
