PPQ Strawberry SAL

Don't we all just love Melisa over at Pinkern Punkin Quilting???

(There are lots of links to her blog below, so please click on the underlined phrases.)

Well when she posted her latest strawberry designs, I knew I just had to stitch them all as a 9 patch quilt like her Spring bluebird SAL and Autumn squirrel SAL from the last two years.

UPDATE: finished! 💚🍓💚🍓💚

Original post:

Yesterday I finalized my fabric, floss, and pattern placement. 

Here are the colors I picked:

Update: I added 605 for the light pink.

My fabric is a 14 count white aida from Hobby Lobby that I dyed with Rit dye (aquamarine I believe). It is barely big enough, but I plan on sewing fabric around the edges. 

Here is the placement of the patterns:

Update: the bottom row will be Shortcake, Quilt, and Ice Cream.

Click HERE for the Ice Cream pattern as well as links to the other 8 patterns.

I tried to place them in order of berry picking! (Berries, picked, eaten with cream, made into jam, and then pie and cake!) Yummy! She states that there are two more that will be released, so I'll add them on the bottom row. 

The first 7 patterns are linked in THIS blog post on Melisa's blog. And today she has a strawberry parade of several other patterns!! Soo berry cute!

Oh no! I may have to add the Strawberry Picker somewhere on my piece!!! I love him!

I even made a little zipper fob yesterday for my project bag. 

I'll be posting my progress on Instagram and if you decide to join in, please use the hashtag #PPQstrawberrySAL so I can see your work!

So excited to start this! Thank you, Melisa!!!

UPDATE: finished! Love it so much!

I added a little cow's head to the milk bottle. It is from Melisa's Spring on the Farm pattern HERE.

Be blessed,
Ann :)
