				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/andover_071714_001.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3272" alt="WIP: A Collaboration With Andover Fabrics {an Art School Dropout's life}" src="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/andover_071714_001.jpg" width="550" height="550" /></a>About a month ago the very kind folks over at <a href="http://www.andoverfabrics.com/" target="_blank">Andover Fabrics</a> sent me a sweet package filled with some precut bundles of brandnew and yet to be released fabrics for me to play with. They wanted to see what I would come up with.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been a huge mess lately preparing for <a href="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/?p=2864" target="_blank">BlytheCon</a> (2 WEEKS LEFT TO PREP) and working on my Silhouette America projects so I can focus on that BlytheCon stuff, so I haven&#8217;t been able to play with all this fabric uninterrupted.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/andover_071714_002.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3273" alt="WIP: A Collaboration With Andover Fabrics {an Art School Dropout's life} work in progress potholders using the new 1Canoe2 fabric line from Andover fabrics #quilting #chevron" src="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/andover_071714_002.jpg" width="550" height="480" /></a>I did attempt to make a pretty, kinda chevron looking pillow out of the new <a href="http://andoverfabrics.com/Grid.php?groupId=25778&amp;GroupName=1canoe2" target="_blank">1Canoe2 line</a>. Halfway through though I realized I had cut a bunch of pieces wrong and now I am reassembling what I can into pot holders. Luckily the line has food related items in it, which actually makes it PERFECT for potholders. Why didn&#8217;t I think of potholders before? I&#8217;ll share the finished set soon!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/andover_071714_003.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3274" alt="WIP: A Collaboration With Andover Fabrics {an Art School Dropout's life} The new Chillingsworth line in hexie form #hexagon #quilting" src="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/andover_071714_003.jpg" width="550" height="550" /></a>I also attacked the <a href="http://andoverfabrics.com/Grid.php?groupId=25766&amp;GroupName=Chillingsworth" target="_blank">Chillingsworth</a> charm packs and made a couple huge piles of hexies. They have already been pieced together and are just in the queue waiting to be quilted. (I like to do all my quilting at once. I may be a weirdo like that) Just like the potholders, I hope to share  the finished piece soon.</p>
<p>I also have BIG plans for those fat quarter bundles shown in the background of the first photo. I&#8217;m just not ready to share yet.</p>
<p>So, on a slightly different note, this post is just a sweet reminder of the changes I&#8217;ve made in how I spend my days! I can now sit down and sew, draw, bake and more without all the stress involved with what I was previously doing. I feel like I&#8217;m actually making progress in <a href="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/?p=3180" target="_blank">my goals I talked about last month</a> and I have learned so much in that time too. I&#8217;m happier and a bit less stressed (I&#8217;ll be even more stress free after <a href="http://artschooldropout.net/blog/?p=2864" target="_blank">BlytheCon</a>).</p>
<p>So I&#8217;d like to say thank you to everyone who encouraged me and has been supportive along the way.</p>
<p>You are all awesome!!!</p>
