Fabulous Fabric Friday Kits

34 comments
The best part of making kits is putting fabrics together. It is always fun to mix and match colors and patterns. Today I spent some time putting strips of fabrics together for bag kits to take to the Moonlight Madness event at American Quilting in Orem Utah. I'm nearly ready to go. I am bringing several quilts to do a mini trunk show along with the bag demonstration.
Kit 1
Kit 2
Kit 3
Kit 4
Kit 5
Kit 6
Kit 7
Kit 8
Kit 9
Kit 10
Kit 11
Ready to pack up! Each kit comes with 12 strips of fabric, rick rack, covered button and pattern. American Quilting is putting kits together from their fabric too, for my pattern.
Have a nice weekend. I am going to try my hardest to get something together with my Christmas Cottage blocks tomorrow.

Hi Nanette, okay I'll take No. 3 or 4. However, any of them will do!

CUTE kits! Such lovely fabrics all grouped together. Cute bag too. Those should really fly out the door.

jacquie said...

ooh...what i would give to be there and snap up a couple of those kits.

Mimi Sue said...

As a new so called quilter, I'm spending a lot of time trying to decide what fabric looks best together. I hope I get better or I'll be spending way too much time just picking things out. Mimi

Carla said...

Please, please, please sell these on your Etay shop! I live a long way from Utah but want a kit sooooo bad!

What a lovely set of kits! I find it awful to try and match fabrics- I can spend longer on choosing fabric than making the item. I am so glad that more experienced people like you are out there. :-)

Eileen said...

Wow! I would not know which one to pick! They are all so adorable! You did a lot of work on thhose.. cutting all the fabrics and making the buttons. How generaous of you to part with your stash like that. I know this was a huge success.. was it last night?

Unknown said...

I want those kits!!!!!

Busy Little Quilter said...

I love putting kits together for projects, too. I would have a hard time parting with all of those! They're too cute!

Love the bag!

julieQ said...

Lovely kits! I am so glad when the fabrics are all put together for me...then I get the fun of sewing!

Fran said...

I really, really like those kits, and as for having a favorite...??? I'd have a hard time to choose. Kinda like going to an ice cream parlor which has 32 flavors.

They are beautiful. Period.

Good luck at the show and most of all....
Have Fun!!

~~Fran...:c)

The kits look great! I can't wait to hear more about the Moonlight Madness. You will need to tell us all about it.

alobsiger said...

OH MY, Nanette! How could anyone choose just ONE of those luscious kits?!?!? Such gorgeous fabrics!

Nan said...

I love EVERY one of those kits, Nanette! They are wonderful! It is fun to choose fabric for a pattern, isn't it? You've done yourself and your pattern proud.

Ginger Patches said...

Your bag kits are all so wonderful...although I'm partial to #3, love the red and aqua! Hope the show went great :)
