My Two Favorite Sewing Books – Right Now

January 17, 2013   By Becca 1 Comment

I stopped by the library the other day to pick up a little inspiration.  As I’ve mentioned a time or two, I really love Moda Fabrics.  Camille Roskelley is one of their designers.  I was introduced to her blog by my friend whose house looks SO much like Camille’s.  Anyway, I love the light and bright colors she uses in her quilts.  Suddenly, my own quilts felt very dark.  She inspired me and I want to try something new.
(And is that polka dot chair the cutest thing EVER?)
I own the first Moda Bake Shop book and use the quilt patterns all the time. When Sweet Celebrations came out I was dying to get my hands on it.  I was not disappointed.  The projects are so pretty and I was excited to see a few of the fabrics that I already have in my stash. 
Sweet Celebrations with Moda Bakeshop Chefs: 35 Projects to Sew from Jelly Rolls, Layer Cakes, Fat Quarters, Charm Squares & More
Quilts, runners, bags, and gifts.  Oh, where do I begin?
Happy sewing!
