sprout

i finally finished my first piece to my new collection sprout. love the strawberry dots with the green fabric; and i think that the navy piping really frames both colors well. if you remember, i posted a pic of the fabrics for this collection some time ago, only problem was that when i went to iron the strawberry dots i discovered that the bolt that i purchased from was defective and had flaws and holes running down the center of the fabric every 10 -15 inches or so. i returned to the store only to find out that the pattern had been discontinued and there is none left in the company (curses!!!). being the girl that i am, i did not let this stop me. after much searching i finally found some online and voila! sprout was finally born...let the sewing begin!
