Easily Interchangeable Headband by Jess the Sewing Rabbit
Hi everyone, Jess the Sewing Rabbit here from the Me Sew Crazy blog! I was so excited when Melissa asked if I would be a part of her Polka Dot Project, you see – I have admired her site for quite a while now. It’s hard not to love something that has Polka Dot in the title of it, right?

Tone on Tone Applique Dots by Diary of a Quilter
Hello friends! I’m Amy and I write about my adventures with fabric on my blog Diary of a Quilter.
My project today was inspired by Riley Blake’s new collection of tone on tone polka dot fabrics! I’m especially loving that navy on turquoise! And so I created a little mini pieced quilt design that I plan to turn into a pillow for spring.
To get the variety of colored fabrics I used a Riley Blake Stacker – a collection of their light solids. Each “stacker” comes with 20 pre-cut 5″ squares. I needed 32 squares so I used two stackers.

Hi Polka Dot Chair friends! I’m Mique from Thirty Handmade Days and the Queen Bee Market. I have known Melissa online from back in the dark ages and finally got to meet her face to face at SNAP! last year. It was a blast! Thanks for having me Melissa.
