As I have stated before, I love Villa Rosa Designs patterns and recently began following their weekly blog. Every week in their Friday newsletter they offer a kit using one of their patterns, last week I took the plung into modern fabrics and ordered their weekly special. The Brides Dream quilt pattern with ten fat sixth along with binding fabric.
The fabrics came quickly and I am anxious to get started, this is a small child's quilt and can be used as a Project Linus project or I may just keep it in my bedroom for color and enjoy being modern.
I must say, being such a traditionalist, that I probably would never have picked these fabrics, let alone have the confidence to put the grouping together of Boho Fusion fabrics. Aren't they pretty?
Wish me luck that I can jump out of my comfort zone and go modern.
Enjoy all the pieces of you life

I bought my first Villa Rosa pattern, Ice Tea, about three years ago, even purchased the same fat quarters that were used in the cover photo. It was finished quickly and has had a place in my living room ever since. I love that quilt. But it wasn't until last week that I realized I hadn't used the Ice Tea pattern but made the quilt using Wicked Easy. Why, I don't know why-----I'm a quilter, no explanation needed, must have been a creative decision made at the time.
Then along the way I picked up three more Villa Rosa patterns and last week signed up for their weekly newsletter. Each Friday they offer a new kit for one of their patterns. Of course, I had to order the kit and then yesterday ordered seven more of their patterns. I'm smitten with their designs.
If you haven't seen or used these cleaver quilt patterns they are postcard size patterns using precuts with added yardage in simple modern designs and easy, easy directions. The cards are priced at $2.00 each, what a bargain, when did you ever buy a pattern for $2.00?
Now I'm anxiously waiting for my kit to arrive so the sewing can begins. You can find all their patterns Here.
Enjoy all the pieces of your life
