Awakening Fabric ~ a Daisy Bowl & Butterfly Pouch

Hi! Charise here from Charise Creates sharing new projects made with Awakening Fabric.

Awakening is a new fabric line designed by Cherry Guidry of Cherry Blossom 
for Riley Blake Designs.

A Spring themed line, it evokes new season vibes with vibrant colors and lovely prints.  
I originally planned on making a quilt but changed my mind once I received the beautiful fabric.  Instead, I made some smaller projects to highlight the cute motifs.

The first project I made is a fabric bowl in the shape of a flower.  The petals are fussy cut with the most adorable bunnies and watering cans using the Spring Charms print in Pink.  

A hexagon made from Riley Blake’s Berry POParazzi fabric adorns the center. 
I love to have cute storage on my sewing table : )   It would also be a lovely addition to your dresser or nightstand.

Awakening Coral Blossoms fabric is used for the outside of the bowl.

The bowl uses both foundation paper piecing to create the inside petal design. The base and petals are stitched together by hand. It is a fun hand stitching project.

In keeping with the Spring theme, I also made a Butterfly Boxy Pouch. The “Spring Palette” print was perfect for fussy cutting the butterfly wings. 

The Butterfly is foundation paper pieced with embroidered antenna. The perfect motif for a Springtime project!

I added the cute little lady bug tag for an extra fun detail!

The apple zipper charm adds a bit of whimsy : )

I used the adorable Awakening Dresden plate style Cheater print for the second side of the pouch. The panel is the perfect size at 6″ finished.

I hope you choose to make a project with Awakening Fabric!

Happy Sewing!
