Yes, I’m excited!  So darn excited!  I bought my first-ever FQ bundle, and it’s Glamping by Mary Jane Butters.  I’ve been eyeing this up for a while, and with a FQS.com 20% off coupon about to expire, it was time to pull the trigger and order it.

I found a fantastic pattern to use – Megabits by Swirly Girls Design.  I chose it because it has great big blocks so you’ll really be able to see the prints in this fabric.  Everything is pressed and I have about 6-8 of the FQs cut.

One thing I hate doing is cutting.  Here’s a picture of each cut-out FQ.  I’ve taped the cutting instructions to the wall just above my cutting mat so they’re right at eye-level.  Smart, eh?

I always get a little antsy in the cutting stage, so I grabbed 5 prints, cut them, and sewed them into the first block so I could see how they’ll look.

Woo Hoo!  Isn’t it fantastic!?!  Only about 20 more FQs to cut.  Once they’re all cut the sewing-them-up part will go really quickly.  Can’t wait!

And since it’s still Wednesday, I’m linking up to Lee @ Freshly Pieced’s WIP Wednesday.  Head on over and see what some super talented ladies are up to this week!
