Sizzix now has a Rose Dream die! I was so excited to see this. I was a little concerned about how tricky all the curves would be so I started by making this pillow for a good friend in need of a little cheering up. It was actually pretty easy! In fact, I have already started cutting pieces for a queen sized bed quilt for us to keep.
If you would like to see my tutorial for making this pillow, pop over to the Sizzix blog today.
Is it not the most awesome die? Please tell Sizzix to keep making more of these quilting dies - I love their brand so much more than Accuquilt.

ReplyDeleteoh, oh, oh! You did a great job keeping that text fabric straight! I know this will be well received and good for you making it for your friend!:)
ReplyDeleteI like it! The curved piecing looks nice:) Love the fabric with the words printed on it too!
ReplyDeleteYou knocked it out of the park yet again. I'm heading over there now!
ReplyDeleteAmy, this is gorgeous!! I love your fabric choices!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a lovely pillow ~ really like the use of the text fabric.
ReplyDeleteI've decided to get myself a Sizzix because of your patterns. I went to Jo=Ann's yesterday and they didn't have one. ACK! Plus, when I asked about it they didn't even know what I was talking about! Guess it's the internet for me. What would you suggest I get in the way of dies and machine?
I'm always amazed how you just keep coming up with fabulous ideas, each one better than the last! You're such an inspiration:-)
ReplyDeleteThis will certainly cheer up your friend. I'm thinking of purchasing the Sizzix because of your post. Your post inspires me to want to create and stretch myself as a quilter.
ReplyDeleteOh how cool, love it!
