What's Inside Quilty Box July 2019? Take a Peek!

Disclaimer:  The contents of this subscription box were given to me by Quilty Box at no cost to me.
 It's July and we're having an exceptionally hot summer here.  Perfect timing for a new Quilty Box and some cool air conditioned sewing inside the house.

 What's inside this month's Quilty Box?  The Home fat quarter collection by Andover Fabrics.

 Let me fan them out so you can see all eight cuts included in this bundle.  I love this color palette.  The prints are adorable, too.  How about the cute houseplant fabric on the right?  

 This month's featured designer is Sarah Golden.  You can read an exclusive interview with her inside the Bundles of Inspiration magazine.  Also inside is a quilt pattern featuring the Home fabrics, plus two pillow patterns.  I'm loving the Sweet Home Pillow by Paper Pieces!

 Isn't this the cutest?  It's a magnetic pin bowl.  I can't wait to try it out.  I think it will be really handy for collecting safety pins while machine quilting.  

 Also included is this box of Magic Pins.  They're heat resistant and have a cushy little handle.  These will be fun to try out.

This month's thread is by WonderFil and coordinates nicely with the fabrics.

Artsy Fartsy In Love Part II

Disclaimer:  The fabrics in this post were provided to me by Island Batik at no cost to me.
 Did you read the Part One post about this project?  For part two, I cut out my Heat 'n Bond Lite backed applique pieces and fused them to the black background.  Doesn't this green Island Batik fabric look wonderful for the leaf shapes?

I cut and collected all of my pieces into a plastic zipper bag.

I arranged all the patches on the black background ~ did you know Island Batik makes a gorgeous deep solid black fabric? ~ and fused them in place.  Next comes the artsy part.  I get to play with my Aurifil thread collection!
