Guest blogger: Fresh Poppy Design

Hey followers,
We have a real TREAT today: Fresh Poppy Design as guest bloggers, 
{our first guest bloggers.} 
YAY!!  
Here is a bit about their cute selves:

Hi all, I am Heather and my sister Megan and I have a fun blog named
FRESH POPPY DESIGN.
We both have A.D.D. when it comes to crafting, and today we are going to share all the madness on our blog!
Two years ago we started a quilt company named FRESH POPPY DESIGN, we share our quilting projects on our blog as well as sell them.  Here is our most recent quilt...
We also love repurposing anything. Megan bought this bugly (that's short for butt ugly Mom, just don't ask what fugly means) console on craig's list.


Then she worked her magic and came up with this beauty!


We also often do tutorials. These fabric blocks come with detailed instructions on our blog... for more details on these blocks, click here.

This was a fun easy project I came with with.  A little spray paint, open frame, scrapbook paper and some glue.  Easy peasy and cute!  I've got a step by step on this too.

We also LOVE to decorate. When we are older and all the kids are off, we may ditch our quilting company and go into interior design. All our projects and decor are on a budget. This hutch was under $300 total. If you look closely, there is fabric backing behind the dishes. We share with you how to do this on our blog too :)
I redecorate my mantle most seasons. This was my winter mantle. I was sad to take it down. However we had a LONG winter here in Utah, and I got to stare at my cute arrogant deer for several months!

For more mantle decor, click here.
For you quilters or aspiring quilters, we have a second blog called QUILTSTORY. We just started this up a few months ago. It has been a place where we share different bloggers quilts and the stories that go with them.

Also we are starting a linky party on Tuesday's where all we do is share fabric projects. We would love if you came to share your projects here!!  Really, more than love we are kinda begging.  We are terrified that come Tuesday night my best friend Sara and our mom will be the only links. :)
