Timber & Leaf

I recently purchased a half yard bundle of Timber & Leaf (Blend Fabrics) to make a quilt for my aunt and I'm not quite sure what to do with it!

The color is slightly off in the photo - the sun was nearly gone.  It's sitting on white snow so use your imagination :)

I'm thinking of combining these with some solids and a cream/natural background and doing another Swoon.  Or perhaps something like this.  Someone recently made a pillow that was very similar and super cute but I can't find it :/  Which do you like better?  Or do you think I should make something totally different??

  1. Ha!! I was going to buy these also, they are so beautiful. But I had the same problem : what to do with them(?) I am trying not to buy new fabric (I know, how crazy!) but I have so much that I don't know what to do with already. Good luck! By the looks of it, whatever you sew will be gorgeous.

    1. Thanks Michelle!! I'm in the same boat... I swore I was going to use my stash and not buy more... but I can't stop! If I have scraps left from whatever this ends up being, you get first dibs :)

  3. I like the quilt from Red Pepper Quilts, but also know you have great creative instincts. Whatever you decide to do it will look amazing!

  4. I wonder what you ended up making. I have been trying desperately to find the deer prints anywhere. They sold out so fast and I'm out of luck. If you have any scraps left I'd love to trade with you.
