Songbook

 A few years ago a company called Fancy That Design House came across my radar. I am a big fan of her flour sack / tea towels. They are a little pricy, but I love a large, good quality flour sack towel in the kitchen...add a little Scripture and I will splurge and these are worth it. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and these are by far my favorite kitchen towel. 

Then she announced her first fabric collection for Moda: Songbook...and the wait was on. Here's the fun panel that's the foundation for the name of the collection. There are 4 of each per panel:

I was finally notified that it was available a few days ago and I ordered a half-yard bundle that very same day. There is a quilt for me in there somewhere

 but I also need to make a quilt for a friends' daughter who is headed off to college. She likes a Boho feel and I think this collection will be perfect. After lots of pattern browsing online, I settled on this design. I've had this pattern for a long time and I'm glad I finally found the project/fabric/pattern combination that works for this:


It uses a Layer Cake, which I didn't have and it took longer to press and cut squares from my 1/2 yard bundle than it did to sew the top, but I loved lingering over these beautiful prints:

College starts soon so I needed to jump on this ASAP. I received the fabric on Thursday, cut the squares on Friday, made the blocks on Saturday, pieced the top on Sunday:

It still needs borders - of which the top and bottom are pieced, and as I'm working on those, I'm dreaming of another quilt:
