Thank you Carole for hosting this blog hop. The challenge was to sew something with a summer theme. I apologize for my late post but I’m recovering from a fractured shoulder. While I don’t need surgery, I am a little more distracted lately.
Summer in our house is many things, including ice cream. I tell my “kids” that we can eat ice cream every day in the summer. Often on vacations, we hit up local artisan ice cream shops. Our favorite is still Cape Cod Creamery, but we are happy to keep looking for a new favorite as well.
Here is a summery little ice cream cone quilt with some matching doll outfits. Of course, it’s all in the mail for Amy at A Doll Like Me.
I found just the right paper pieced soft serve ice cream cone pattern. It wasn’t hard to make but I still flubbed a few of the pieces. I used it nonetheless, but will make a better one eventually for a future quilt. The pattern is from on Etsy and while not free, was only $4.00.
Thanks to everyone who took time to play, create and post. Check out the other wonderful projects and the Here Comes the Sun Pinterest page.
