In February, I made a puff quilt using Island Batik’s “Fruit and Veggies” fabric line. As I looked at the fabric, I knew, without a doubt, that I’d be using some of the fabric for this blog hop.
The Clam UP pattern is a byAnnie pattern and I made the Large, Medium, Small and Extra-Small sizes.
- Apples-Green Pineneedle (Large and Small outer)
- Apples – Multi Blue Green (Medium and Extra-Small outer)
- Dot – Teal Aqua (Lining)
- Stone – Multi Blue Green (Various Tabs, Side Panel, bindings)
- Cheerios – Multi Blue Green (Various Tabs, Side Panel, bindings)
I thoroughly enjoyed using this fabric for this blog hop!!!
Here they are in front of our first daffodil of the season!
And sitting in the apple tree … without a single sign of a blossom!
They nest inside each other !!
