Baby Butterfly centers...and update!

I thought I'd show the adorable fabric I'm using for the body of the Baby Butterflies.  It's from Bee Basics by Lori Holt for Riley Blake.  Don't any of you go getting any ideas...I'm gonna buy it all up because it is so very, very cute!


In between pics I'll let you know what I've been up to this last year...I retired from teaching last April, had a surgery, became a pharmacy technician, worked at that for the last 8 months, then decided to change it up again and restart my longarm quilting business.  

Back to the fabric--check out the cute lines on text on this print!!  I didn't bother to fussy cut the strips because they easily all had cute little sayings on each strip without any effort from me.


Back again to longarming--this time I'm adding an Intelliquilter (computerized quilting software) to my longarm machine to "up my game" professionally.  My plan is to give reasonable notice at my pharmacy job, move my studio downstairs, and have the system installed in early summer.  With any luck, I should have my system up and running by the end of June.  Log Cabin Quiltery will be back in business!

Here is a pic of the selvedge on this wonderful fabric...


Anyhow, I'll let you know how the studio move works out.  For sure I'll take some before and after pics during all the stages.  This should be super fun!

 Happy Quilting!
