I received this lovely parcel in Monday's mail from Tammy.
Photo's a bit blurry in this one.
But not in this one, aren't these scrummy fabrics and a lovely needle pebble.
Tammy sent these as a thank you for the pincushion swap, what a sweetie she is. Thank you so much Tammy, they are simply wonderful. You'll see these sprinkled through a quilt very soon.
Happy Stitching.

The Jelly Roll Quilts book was written by the owners of my local quilt store and I bought it as soon as it was published - I haven't made anything yet though.
How about State Fair? Or Picnic on the meadow?
Love to hear what you think of the Jelly roll book... need ideas for some rolls that are hanging around at my place... and have been looking at that one! How thoughtful of Tammy to send the lovely fabrics... great idea of her...you did a great job in organizing the swaps!
And what kind of name did you have in mind???
I'm not sure what your name is needed for, maybe a quilt? I'd call it simply 'Summertime'.
How about Picnic Parade. Summertime Fun or Wonders of Summer. Just some thoughts. Good Luck!
lovely fabrics, as for a name, well, let me think, isn't there a song about ladybugs and picnics.. just can't think of it at the mo!
i would be interested to know what you think of the jelly roll quilts book as have been thinking about getting it - keep looking at it on amazon but have resisted temptation so far!
I have the Jelly Roll book. Its great. I'm terrible at names. But I love your fabrics and ideas.
Hi! I love your blog! How about Summer Picnic?
Lazy Daze....
Summertime....(hmm..looks like that one has already been used
Teddy Bear Picnic...
I have seen those Pebble Needlecases..are they different size needles in there? or the same size?
How about Picnic in the Park?
What's the old song "at the Ladybug's Picnic" or was that on Sesame Street - I don't remember, but it is the first thing that popped into my head when you listed the items.
What a sweet gift and lovely fabrics. My choices for a name--A Bug's Picnic or Simply Buggy or Insects on Parade. That's a tough one to come up without seeing it. New blog look? I like it!
Hi Linda, such a sweet gift for all the hard work you put into the swap. I'm interested in your view on the books.
OK, for the name the first thing that I thought about was "Guess who's coming to dinner". Could just see all the bugs joining in on the picnic.
Hugs,
Bonnie
Love those fabrics and books. What a sweet gift.
God bless.
I am making the gemstone quilt from the Jelly Roll book right now...we definitely like the same books :)
I am horrible at naming things especially without knowing what I'm naming lol! Something in a garden maybe? See really bad :)
I'm glad you like your goodies :)
Beautiful fabrics........How about
A Day in the Country......or A Family day out........or The Gathering
Hello, it sounds like a fun project! There has been an advert on the TV recently that is something about Ladybugs and picnics - the tune is really catchy, but I can't quite catch it just at the moment! I think it might be a mayonnaise advert! Anyway, some words form the song might be good.
How about 'A Bug Day Out'?
I haven't commented on your blog before but I've certainly been reading it!
Cheers
Anne
Hi Linda love the look of the books
now for the name
how about Lindas secret garden
big hugs Beth
Hey! I made the lovely Ginger patches her pincushion - hope that means she was pleased :-)
All I can think about with those things is Pooh Bear! Pooh's picnic? Flutterby afrternoons? Bugs on rugs? I give up LOL
Now you have new books and new fabric so you can start a new project! Can't help with the name...I struggle to think of names for my quilts or titles for blog posts!
summer basket
the words you used brings to mind warm lazy afternoons, wicker picnic baskets, red checked picnic cloths.....
hopefully this will give you some ideas to springboard from.

First thing I thought of was Happy Meadows....the fabric is very pretty....
I have the jelly roll book it is really lovely...I am hoping to make a quilt from it soon.
What fun things! You always get the best mail!!! :o) For the title all I can think of is Ladybug picnic...
I love the new look of your blog..I wish I could figure out how to change mine up!!! Great mail for you. Now about a name...A Bugs Day Out!
Great new books! Enjoy and make something for ME. teehee!!!
Wonderful treasures and treats from Tammy. Did you know that she's my little sister? LOL
And, last but not least "Going Buggy" Or "Bugzzzzzzzzzzzz"
((HUGS))
Frstly, congrats on the Ministry, how exciting for you!
Love all the cupcake items,make me hungry!
And I suppose "bug'ger" is no help for the quilt, it is what i would be thinking at the picnic!! Tracey
What lovely gifts from the mailman! It's such fun to get packages in the mail. I've heard so many good things about the Jelly Roll Quilts book, I'll have to check it out!
Lucky, Lucky you!
