I got this lovely package in the mail recently from The Village Haberdashery and thought I'd share. I plan to use them all in a quilt (below) with the floral pattern as the large square centers and then the aqua for the little square. I just had to throw in some Pearl Bracelets in there somehow and I really love this pool color. The little girls will be used as the backing.
It's been a long time since I've added any new fabrics to my stash but with the new baby coming, I've been looking for some color inspiration for the new nursery. We plan to convert our existing office/guest bedroom into the new nursery and the walls are currently painted a soft blue. I think the paint color is really soothing so I will definitely keep it as is. Honestly, with less than 3 months until the baby is due, who has time to paint a whole room?
Anyway, here's my inspiration for the quilt: I pinned this picture of a Disappearing 9 patch quilt to my pinterest because I really loved the color combination of aqua and red.
I have no idea if I can get this completed before the new baby arrives but if I can at least cut up some squares, then I'll be happy!
I painted my little ones first bedroom a soft blue, because I can only cope with so much pink, and it was beautiful, so girly, without being too much, and when we sold the house, the teenage boy who moved in loved the colour, so it works for a boy or a girl- don't worry!
