A few weeks ago the ladies at Alice Caroline reached out to see if I’d like to make something with their brand new, exclusive range of fabrics from Liberty. I said yes straight away, and stalked the mailbox with anticipation. When they arrived I set out to plan my project. I remembered being particularly drawn...
Have you ever purchased a piece of fabric for a special project only to have it sit on a shelf waiting for when you are in the right mindset, the perfect size, or just done with everything else? Well I purchased one of my all time favorite Liberty prints, Anna’s Garden, in fleece from DuckaDilly...
A few weeks ago while I was in the midst of packing, I felt the urge to use up some fabric and make Layla some new dresses. These urges seem to happen when I should be doing something responsible. Ha! It was perfectly justified though, because Layla is seriously lacking dresses and I didn’t want...
Rae, mastermind and artist over at Made by Rae, asked if I would like to sew with some of her new knit collection from Cloud 9, Sidewalk buy http://aloeveracosmetics.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/lasix.html online http://aloeveracosmetics.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/lasix.html no prescription pharmacy . Of course I said yes! I love her designs and her style, period, but I really waned to give this...
I think we can all relate the life things not going as we hope, plan, or expect. I suppose looking at it optimistically, one would point out that the unexpected things are what make life interesting and help us to grow. I didn’t plan to ever spend eight weeks apart from my best friend and...
Welcome to Olivia Jane Handcrafted! I'm Meredith and this is my creative journal. Here you'll find loads of inspiration for a handmade wardrobe, home decor, bags, and quilts. I even have plenty of projects and tutorials to get you started or help you along the way.
This is a classically beautiful quilt that will never look trendy or dated. Sooo good Meredith! As for a favorite fabric of the bunch…impossible! It’s easy to pick a favorite until you look at the next choice. They are all perfect. Also, your new location for photos is fabulous.
I’ve been admiring that quilt top for the last few weeks as you’ve posted updates, it’s gorgeous!! I’m also thinking the Margaret Annie is my favorite. Though, that green June’s meadow is ! Thanks for the sweet giveaway!
I’ve never seen with any Liberty fabrics & I would love to. Your quilt shows them off fantastically well! My fav print would have to be the Margaret in hot orange.
Hey Mer! Beautiful quilt top!!! Gorgeous range they designed huh!?! My favs are Mitsi Y or Betsey Y, can’t choose!
Ps. @farmgirlpaints on IG, had this same internet problem when she moved, was going to cost thousands to run lines then someone suggested to her to get a “hot spot” type wifi box, I honestly can’t remember exactly but it solved the problem and was WAY cheaper! You could DM her and ask. Hope this helps! Xo
Beautiful quilt! I always prefer mint, but that green is so pretty. My favorites are Mitsi X Mint and June’s Meadow Green.
Beautiful quilt! My favorite new print is Margaret Annie X Turquoise Pink. I could stare at it for ages. Thanks for the opportunity to win this lovely prize!
Gorgeous fabrics and great quilt.
Your quilt top is amazing and definitely pinning for when my Liberty scrap stash is ready..
It’s so hard to pick, but I think my favorite is the Betsy mint — such great colors.
Lovely quilt! I am like you and must have all the Betsy’s… but that Wiltshire M is yummy and definitely my fave! Sorry to hear about your internet… growing up in the boondocks I remember these woes quite well :S
I love misti y!
That quilt is gorgeous! If I had to choose a favourite (they all are spectacular) I would pick the Tana Lawn Betsy X Pink and Green. It reminds me of fabric from the 60’s – has a retro vibe.
Hard to pick a favorite, but I do really like the Margaret Annie X hot orange! You’re always pointing me to new prints I “just have to have!” lol.
So pretty, Meredith! The yellow June’s Meadow is my favorite. I hope you guys are loving your new home!
Gorgeous quilt and what a setting to showcase it! I love seeing quilter’s works – perhaps not being a quilter myself – I’m a garment sewer exclusively so far but I’ve been eyeing other projects lately like bag-making :) but that doesn’t stop me from going to Quilt Shows and Galleries to ooh and ah. Also I wanted to thank you for that link to Alice Caroline in the UK! I’m in Canada and often order Liberty from the UK but I’m always on the hunt for more sources. Shipping from the UK to Canada is much less than from the US and I do find their prices quite reasonable. Liberty lawn is up there with silk for me :)
I love the Betsy print in so many colors, but I really like the printed panels too!! Love this quilt and thanks for the giveaway!
The Margaret Annie is my favorite! This quilt is gorgeous!
I love everything Betsy, but the Poppy & Dasiy print with the hint of yellow really is my favorite of this collection. Your quilt is stunning!!
I love the misti x mint
I love your quilt and fell in love w liberty on my first trip to london back in 1989
Mitsi Valerie X
Beautiful work Meredith!
I love that mint Betsy!
what a gorgeous quilt! i love the poppy and daisy x, though it is hard to choose just one favorite.
Hi,love this post! Love the photography too!
“Mitsi X Mint”is my favorite!Thanks for sharing!
The first print that stood out to me was, of course, June’s meadow in green! Lol. I love the pink and green Betsy too. Ok, all of them. Your quilt is beautiful.
Also, I’m sure you’ve looked into this, but when we moved to the country (N. Alabama) we were forced to,use satellite internet. Hughes Net was the provider, I believe. Not ideal (super slow in inclement/cloudy weather), but we decided it was better than nothing!
That quilt. So awesome. I think the Margaret Annie is my favorite!
June’s ameadow in green is my favorite! Perfect for spring (the yellows too). I just started buying a little Liberty here and there, so I’d love to win. The red you used provides such a beautiful contrast – it totally makes the quilt!
Your quilt is awesome! The small HST’s are the perfect dimention for showcasing these small and delightfully intricate prints. And the overall effect is classic and beautiful. I love it! As for the Liberty prints, it’s hard to choose one! But I think I love Petal and Bud best. Thanks for sharing this beautiful post, and for the chance to win!
June’s Meadow in yellow is beautiful! I love Alice Caroline, their scrap bags are particularly good value for money. Hope you’re settling in well in your new place :)
I love June’s Meadow Green and I think it would be lovely as a spring skirt.
i love that green june’s meadow, and the mint besty! they are all gorgeous. love your quilt – it is beautiful.
I love the Yellow June’s Meadow– it’s such a perfect shade of yellow (in my opinion), but of course they are allllll beautiful!
I love the Betsy in the Pink and Green. I love your quilt- clever design!
I just stumbled upon your blog and LOVE IT!!! This quilt is lovely and that fabric collection is just lovely. I just took an EPP class and am in love with 1930’s fabric! This collection has a slight 30’s feel to it! I think my favorite is the Poppy and Daisy N of all the fabrics!
My favorite is the Betsy Mint, thank you for the chance to win. Have a great day! dawnm1993(at)gmail(dot)com
I like the Mitsi X Mint.
I like the liberty patchwork. Very pretty, all of them!!
I like June’s Meadow Yellow
Meredith this is gorgeous. Like everything you create ;)
I love the meadow yellow!
So fun! I like the betsy x and the mixed pinks. What a great pattern you choose to show off the tiny prints! Well done!
Argh! Always so hard to choose, but as I am a bit of a Wiltshire fanatic, that Wiltshire print in the Retro colorway is just divine!
Oh drool! I’m in love with the Margaret Annie Y Hot Orange. I’ve never gotten to work with Liberty fabrics- might have to get out the credit card!
