Monday Stacks - One for me, One for you :)

Okay, Monday Stacks are just as good as Sunday Stacks! 

Really - an extra day to sit is better.....right? 

 Brown and Cream Matroyshkas from Heather Ross, 2 Kona solids, and 4 shot cottons

I think it would make for a cute little girl quilt.

Oh, what's this?  Some Bohemian from Anna Maria Horner?

FOR YOU!!

Oh, this is the one for you!

As it is my birthday today.....I would like to give you a gift.

I have decided "I like to give gifts on my birthday, to celebrate the day I was born"

So, for one of you, this lovely bundle of Boho!

I was sort of speedy with my cuts, but there are approximately 9 yards or so here.

So, in order to win this, please leave me a comment with your best birthday memory ever.

I will close the comments next Monday 2/28.

Also, that funny little quote I have up there is from a modern children's book.  If anyone can guess the name of the book, I have a little mini bundle for you.  It's my most favorite book right now!! 

Name that book!

My friend and I worked on an auction quilt all weekend, it's amazing!  Hopefully some pictures soon.

Tonight, I'll be hanging out with my Modern Quilt Guild.  Yep, quilt guild meeting for my birthday.  It sounds funny, but I'm actually excited.  If you had told me 10 years ago how I would be spending 31st birthday at a quilt meeting, I would have laughed in your face.  But here I am and I love it!!

xo, Raven :)

{this moment} - fabric stacks?

A Friday ritual(sort of). A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week.

Nature Walk Knit Pants

 As Sascha did say - these might be the most insanely easiest thing I have sewn in a long long long time.
And I really love the cut/shape of these pants.  They fit the kids quite well.

            I made each kid a pair of lobster pants.  Lila will get the smaller rose pant and the larger will go to a friend's daughter for a birthday present(do I have to hem them then?)  The lobster print is an interlock.  I love how sturdy the fabric is.  Atlas loves his lobster pants.  He's already worn them to pre-school.  Husband thinks these should be designated as PJ pants.   I bought the fabric from the Fabric Fairy.  I think it was flawed and super on sale.  I love flawed things! :) 

I made Lila a third pair out of some very lightweight knit I received in the Heather Ross studio sale.  I used some leftover rib knit for the waist.  I've been playing around a lot with mixing fabrics.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  I don't think that wobbly bit will go away.  I think I need to be less lazy when it comes to ironing......

TGIF!!
