It all began so innocently in December. These yellows and grays were stored together in a scrapbook case from when I used them for two other quilts in past years. I had been wanting to make another quilt with them for a long time and then I saw the White Cloud Villa Rosa pattern and an idea was born.
Easy cutting began and then the sewing ensued, I quickly had it this far before leaving for AZ. And there it stayed until last week. Note to self... write down the pattern name, don't just think you will remember months down the road, LOL. Yep you guessed it I couldn't remember the name and therefore searching on my computer didn't find the pattern. How many more rows were to be added? The sweet ladies on the Villa Rosa FB group I am on helped me identify it quickly. More sewing happened after finding the digital pattern on my computer.
I added more columns and rows than the pattern called for as I wanted a little bigger size. In the effort to use up more gray and yellow I decided to piece the back with some. I thought I was close to using these up but the joke was on me, there is a bunch more in another case! Oh well I still used up a bunch.
The quilting is a pantograph called Floating Clouds which was very fitting since the quilt pattern is White Clouds. I used a gray Glide thread with Hobbs 80/20 batting which is my go to batting.
And now my design wall is empty and ready for the next project. There is always something brewing over here! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend whether it is sewing or something else.
