I had time over the holidays to piece and quilt my Baby Butter Tarts Quilt. This is our latest Highway 10 Designs patterns and I can't stress enough how easy it is to piece. No HST or flying geese blocks to trim or lines to draw! It is a fat quarter friendly pattern and was able to finally use some fat quarters I have been hoarding. I had 4 sweet Dashwood Studio prints called Nightfall and added some 8 more fabrics in blues, pinks and purples.
I quilted it with the Wave on Wave pantograph, used light blue So Fine thread and Quilters Dream Puff batting. I picked up some pink Cuddletex for the backing to make it soft and cuddly.
We are having a two day warm spell then on Saturday the deep freeze hits again. We are going from 0'c to -30'c. So I was able to get a few outdoor pictures in the snow today. Love it when the snow drifts then gets a crust on top so you can easily lay a quilt in the snow without leaving marks.
