Whew! The show quilt is done, and two days early even! The deadline on this thing relates to the Houston show entry deadline which is May 19 (are you entering a quilt?), and I really wanted this quilt to go to the show this year. Not that I know it’s going to be there yet [...]

April 17, 2009
2005 59″ x 59″ I’ve decided that Paisley Pavane is my favorite quilt, if I’m just thinking about the design. I made this quilt for the New Quilts from an Old Favorite contest a few years ago, and I enjoyed every minute of it’s making. Every part of the quilt was a leftover from other [...]
