I have an Outfoxed wallet!
outfoxed walletPattern is Favorite Things’ A Billfold, and my fabric choices were  Lizzy House’ Outfoxed in Yellow and Tufts in Yellow.

All the outer pattern pieces got fussy cut.

We didn’t have snow for Christmas, but then finally a couple weeks ago it would not stop snowing! So our intern Sarah made some cute snowflakes for our windows.

All the Wintery wet and cold has made us just want to hunker down and snow, er sew. I actually typed it like that. We’ve been planning new quilts and getting old ones finished. We’ve been hanging new quilts…

I’ve been calling this Firecracker Play. Sounds dangerous, huh. Our friend Mary made it for us to hang in the shop with Jaybird’s Firecracker quilt pattern & Sarah Jane’s Children at Play prints, with some American Jane mixed in there. We’ve got kits available, and you can bundle it with the Lazy Angle Ruler (not required but recommended in the pattern) which Mary reported that she loved. I particularly like that these firecrackers spin both ways.

And of course we need warm flannel in the Winter. This easy baby quilt uses the Irving Street flannel collection with Valori Wells’ Lion’ Around pattern, also in a kit.

I almost had to steal it off the wall for my new baby niece. It’s a good thing my sister Rosie already made this for her using the purple & pink prints from Outfoxed. She designed and made it all herself, and even quilted it on the long-arm–her first time ever!

Ah, she makes me so proud. We want to see what Winter sewing you‘ve been working on. Add your photos to our Flickr pool!
