Fabrics

Lily & Will have a sister & brother!

Sis is yellow and brother is aqua!  How’s that for the perfect siblings?  It’s been heaven the last few weeks having these fabrics to play with!  I am in love with these colors!

This is Lily & Will II in yummy yellow and aqua!  Yards and yards of this fabric have been made into quilts in a very short time.  There’s so much more I wanted to do, but we ran out of time.  Quilt Market is next week and everything has to be done now!

Three of the four quilts we had time to make are for baby, but this fabric is for any age!  I want a bed quilt from the aqua and maybe some new curtains in the studio from the yummy yellow stripe!  I know, I know you’re still waiting on the first Lily & Will to arrive in your local shop.

You won’t have to wait as long for this line.  It ships in March!  I’d love to try some red applique with this aqua.  Can’t you just see little red check applique flowers on the aqua damask?

Tomorrow I’ll be working on a special SECRET project for the Moda Schoolhouse at Quilt Market.  But on Sunday you’ll see some of this fabric tucked inside the gift basket when I pick the winner of my block of the month contest.  One of you will be getting some of this fabric before anyone else! I’ll FINALLY announce the winner on Sunday!!!!!

Hope you love this fabric as much as I do!  I’ll be showing you more and more things you can make with it soon!

    Beautiful. I am looking forward to seeing it. I have at three baby quilts I need to make for babies due in March, April and May.

    I love the new colors! I just used the green jelly roll. The Green is beautiful. Can’t believe that it was discontinued! :(

    Hi Anne! Have a wonderful, happy, successful time at Quilt Market! Looking forward to seeing all the wonderful pictures and reading all about your fabulous adventure!

    I really like the blue with the brown dots. I can’t tell in the picture, does it come like that in the yellow? Beautiful fabrics! Thanks, Karen

    I LOVE these colors, too! That blue is much like the color of our bedroom walls, so serene and restful. And that soft buttery yellow, just can’t get enough of that! I can’t wait to see these fabrics in person!! How I would love to be the winner of your block of the month contest, but of course, I’m wishing good luck to all who are entered :-)

    Oh I love this color palate. The aqua and brown is just so pretty. I had my youngest in a brown cord jumper with aqua tights and top yesterday and the combo was just so pretty. I can’t wait to get my hands on some of it. Just lovely.

    Oh, I love that yellow!!!!! Buttery, lemon, chiffon, yellow!!!!! I can’t wait till it hits the stores. I want the pink/brown for a Binkies on Broadway for a throw for my room and the yellow/brown for a The More the Merrier for the guest room. There are no babies around here but I don’t care. I love them!!! Then there is that B is for Baby!!! I may have to go up to a total stranger and ask if I can make a blanket for their baby!!! Don’t even get me going on Baby Bear and Snicker Doodles! When did you sneak all these patterns in on us?

    Pure genius, that’s all I can say!!!

    (reading one of the comments – was the green discontinued?)

    Just beautiful! Love them both. This gives me some incentive to finish some projects before March gets here and your new line hits our local shops. Have a grand time at market.

    Just beautiful,Anne. All of your Lily & Will is just delightful. I am anxiously awaiting my order the blue to make Nighty Night Will for a shower in two weeks. Unfortunately, the mom-to-be will get an IOU at the shower, but I just know the quilt will be worth the wait!

    Sweeeet and perfect siblings!! Yes, still waiting on the original kids to show up!
    I didnt post on the previous blog post, but I need to comment how beautiful Sue’s tree skirt is – Nooooo presents hiding it!! Give all gift cards that you can hang on the tree – lol!!!
    Putting borders on my 2 BH projects- can’t wait to see them all done – they’re turning out wonderful (to me). Got to gear up for the new one – I love it!!
    Hmmmm, wondering what your project is in school house…

    okay, i can now forgive moda for discontinuing the green because they’ve replaced it with a beautiful yellow! I LOVE yellow!

    I sure hope this line comes in quicker than Lily and Will 1! I have baby things to make! Really, I do! ;0

  • Erika

    I cannot wait for your first line to come and it seems like the second is as exciting as the first. Your applique idea sound really cute. I hope you can show it soon

    **BIG SIGH** Ahhhhhhh…The aqua and yellow are absolutely gorgeous. Well, I think I say that about all the Lily and Will, but really Anne, I do love yellow and aqua both. I can hardly wait to see them made into quilts and it would be heavenly to be able to fondle some, oh so gently. Yup, that’s the ticket. I’m a fabric fondler and proud of it. *wink* …and yes, I can visualize the red checked applique on the aqua damask…wonderful! And now that I’m finally getting my own sewing space with good lighting and someplace to cut besides the end of my sewing table, I’ll be learning to applique! About time don’t you think? I hope you have a wonderful night. Little scratches to all your furry kids, Warm thoughts and hugs to you.
