Are you making progress?  Fabric is arriving, first cuts are sliced and dreamy ideas are starting to become reality as (I trust) some are mustering for our Bluebird Sew off.  

Right now, your chances are pretty good!  At about a week and a half from the contest deadline, we have all of two entries so far.  Come now, I'm not the only one enchanted by this line!  Even if you were already sewing with Bluebird, you can enter your finished project into the sew off.  Don't be shy!

I'd love to see what you've made!  Enter by adding your finished item photo to the link party here or just use the hashtag #bluebirdsewoff on Instagram to tag your entry for the contest!  You can tag works in progress with the same hashtag, to share those sneak peaks.  


This week a big box of pillow forms and invisible zippers arrived, so I was able to finish my scrappy pixel pillows. 



These cuties are samples for my next class as well as good excuses to play fast and loose with my scraps.  



I'd enter this mostly-Bluebird pillow into the sew off if I weren't.. err.. naturally disqualified!  



But I have another Bluebird-inspired project in the works anyhow.  I received some happy mail from Pink Door Fabrics, which included a huge cut of the Flocked print destined to become curtains (and some stashings like the Cotton & Steel sprinkles and those Modern Background text prints that I've been eyeing).  All my curtain-making supplies are here, so I guess it's time!  Or, then again, how about I do that on Saturday?

There's patchwork calling today...


p.s.  It's not too late to snatch up some Bluebird at Pink Door Fabrics or Mad About Patchwork in Canada.  And, enjoy!
