Le Petite Salon - My Way

Hello and TGIF!  I just wanted to share my little guest posting over at Sew Sweetness this week.  You can go to the original post HERE, my contribution to the Tula Pink Sew Along was this past Wednesday.  I was so excited to be a contributor in this Sew Along, and so excited to get to make such an awesome quilt for my sweet little boy!  Thanks so much to Sara for having me!

The photos that are here on my blog today are the "outtakes" from the photo shoot, you know the ones that didn't quite make the cut.  To be completely honest, I was really disappointed with this photo shoot all-together.  I think that even though I was on a ladder (much higher than I'm comfortable with) the quilt is just too large to fit into the frame well.  I think I would have needed to be on the roof!  Oh well, live and learn.  The wrinkles in the quilt are killing me too, but once again, with a quilt this size I ironed it several times, but the wrinkles just didn't seem to go away.  Yuck.  What is done is done, right?  Below is a shot of my binding all ready to go, I just need to make the backing and quilt it first! HA!  I am just thrilled with this quilt and can't wait to finish it up so that it can eventually go on my son's "big boy" bed (I know, I still have a while, he is only 8 months old!)  I hope he loves it as much as I do!

You still have plenty of time to make an item from a Tula Pink pattern or using Tula Pink's fabric and enter it into the Sew Along contest.  You can join the Flickr group HERE and get all of the information and details.  There are a ton of great prizes to be had!  Go ahead, join and get sewing!

Marci, this quilt is so fun! I love that fabric you are using for the binding. This will make a great "big boy" quilt!

So beautiful! It's really fun. I know your pain trying to photograph big quilts. It's tough to get far enough away!

oh I'm so behind in my reader I missed your feature - sorry! Great quilt though - love how some of the pluses go out into the skinny border! Very fun.
