There is no blue without yellow and without orange. Vincent Van Gogh

Remember the sneak peeks showing a project I was making using the Prince Charming fabric? Finished! I made the Vintage Spools pattern designed by the very creative Stephanie of Loft Creations. I saw the fabric at Karen's shop and I thought it would be perfect for this quilt. The fabric might not be vintage but the rick rack is. It is one of my antique finds and it is perfect on the quilt.
I added some of the left over fabrics to a dish towel with some more vintage rick rack.
It is official ladies. I am going to head up a Quilt Along using the pattern in this magazine. It is also on the lower left corner of the cover. See it here too. Several of my readers have expressed interest in doing one. Making th equilt together would be great incentive to get it finished too. I will be doing this next year only because I have so much going on right now. So if you think you want to participate get this current issue and be watching my blog later in the year for more information.

And feel free to mention it on your blog if you are going to Quilt Along with me so that others can get the magazine while it is on the news stands.
You know it is summertime when the blueberries are ready to pick. My husband is back to 4 day work weeks with Friday off. Today we went to the opening day of blueberry picking. It was so hot but we managed to pick 13 pounds today. Oh, they are so delicious. I made a blueberry crisp with some of them. The rest went into the freezer.
I will not be blogging for the next week. I have a friend and her husband coming to stay with us plus several appointments, plus teaching. So until next time.

With Passion,

Carrie P.
