Be Nicey

Look at this tote made out of our Nicey Jane charm squares!

I was excited to see it.
The bag has a nice weight & size.

Embellished with some yoyos & super cute buttons.

The pattern is the Vintage Seaside Bag. (etsy or eBay)

It is very charm pack friendly, using 35 -- 4.5" squares.

I especially liked seeing these fabrics all together,

because I'm making a quilt for my bed out of Nicey Jane.

It's going to be fabulous.

Just look at those prints --

so so pretty & happy.

Yep,

I'm going to get going on that, any minute now.

Orange Slice~

I am well aware that it is NOT August/September/October.
But man, do I have Orange and Red on the brain.

So I'm throwing caution to the wind
and talking about this quilt anyway!

I'm a lazy decorator.
I'm not too into seasonal decor.
So I figure with these bright oranges and red,
I can leave this up for the spring/summer
and cruise right into fall
without having to change a thing.

I told you I'm lazy.
The pattern is a single Irish Chain.
I love the simplicity of it.
I love the colors.

In fact, I want to make it in all
of my favorite color combos:
Pink/Orange, Blue/Green,
Red/Aqua, Pink/Red.
Not to mention scrappy would do the trick as well.
Pattern can be found in my store.

Also, for a limited time,
~~I'm offering a little "Orange Slice Kit".~~

UPDATE: Kits Sold Out! You ran me right out of my stash. But for those of you who scored one....oh, they are good!! Lots of variety!

For $12 it comes with all the orange strips
that you need to make the top,

PLUS the Orange Slice Pattern and
FREE Shipping. (US only)

Just add a white/neutral and you're almost done!
It's sewn with strip sets so it really goes quite fast.
