Kerry and Penny's first set of patterns is now available in their new
Sew-Ichigo shop! It's a lovely set of four kitchen themed designs. I was able to test this one for them. It's called "Ode to a Kitchen Aid." I debated long and hard over various floral prints for a fun and funky Kitchen-Aid mixer but decided that it just wasn't "me." Instead, I went with a clean looking block with a white Kitchen Aid with a metal bowl...just like the one sitting on my counter. I am hoping to use Penny's Kitchen Aid
cover tutorial to turn it into a cover for my mixer when time permits. This is a great little block. And it
is little-just 6". Did you think it was bigger? When I see the image, I think so too but when you think about the size of selvage dots you realize that it can't be all that big! Here is my hint for you when looking for the perfect selvage for this project--check your novelty prints. They tend to have more colorful circles on the selvage! I'm already looking forward to seeing their next set of patterns.
Today is the day that I promised to giveaway a set of my three gardening paper pieced patterns(available
here)! The lucky winner is:

I love the little label, and especially the wood grain handle! I've had my eye on your gardening blocks, they're on my wish list... so I'd love the chance to win the set!
I sent your patterns just moments ago
Tiffany!
Thankyou Amy and lucky Tiffany!
ReplyDeleteLove it, and congrats to Tiffany!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I feel so lucky this morning. I'd love to dive into these straight away, but alas! I have some 'real' gardening to do today. :) And did you know: I have been stalking the sew-ichigo blog for several days now... waiting for them to post these kitcheny patterns. Yay! Today is a great day for the world of paper piecers.
ReplyDeleteThanks again, Amy!
XO, Tiffany

ReplyDeleteI also love the mixer...the white looks great.
I love the mixer and want to make that too.
ReplyDeletePlus all the garden stuff.hah.ah.ah.a.a
6" square!! Oh my! The selvedge dots are perfect as is your choice of a non patterned fabric for the Kitchen Aid. It looks just like mine, except for the cute coloured numbers of course. I wonder why Kitchen Aid didn't think of that????

Cute design. Great way to use the selvage.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Tiffany! The patterns are great. I love this Kitchenaid one, too! It looks great. How clever to have the selvege in there! I have a red Kitchenaid. This would be fun to make for that!
