Blogger's Choice: Thelma Childers


Thelma Childers, the talented blogger behind the blog Cupcakes n Daisies has built a Blogger's Choice Fat Quarter Bundle and it is a red lover's dream. Thelma chose 12 prints and 3 coordinating solids from our shop to create a red and cream masterpiece. Thelma is here to tell you a bit more about her blogger approved bundle, and don't forget to enter for a chance to win one for yourself!



Q: What will you be making with your Blogger’s Choice Fat Quarter Bundle?
A:I've just finished making "Tickled Red" from the pattern Tickle by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company. I used a bit of every piece of fabric in the bundle to make the top that finishes around 26 inches square. I wanted something to put on my table for Valentine’s Day. I'm so happy that I'll have this top quilted and ready for next year.

I also have a little side project going on in my sewing room when I want a break, I'm piecing little 3 inch red churn dash blocks. I've added 18 more to my finished stack from the reds in the bundle. I still have plenty of fabric remaining to add to some future projects. I've heard from one quilter who plans to use the bundle in Cinnamon Stars by Planted Seed Designs and another going with Debonaire by It's Sew Emma. I sure hope I get to see some finishes by other quilters who used the bundle.


Q: What quilt project are you currently working on?
A:Right now I have a good start on Three Barns by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company using Chateau Rouge by French General. I love the yellows in that line with the reds and grays. Next up will be Jubilee Celebration by Paula Barnes for Red Crinoline Quilts using some civil war reproduction fabric in my stash. I'm counting the days until Happy Go Lucky is released by Bonnie and Camille for Moda. I haven't decided on my pattern but I plan to welcome Spring while playing with that fabric.
