You may remember that in December I was working on a secret project. Quiltmaker magazine asked me to sew and quilt a quilt for an upcoming issue. I completed it in 3 weeks and very sadly, I shipped it off to them to be photographed. Lucky for me I had almost enough fabric to make one more for myself. I had to order more border fabric from Hancocks of Paducah and it arrived just so I can get the top completed before I leave for camp on Thursday.

The
Quilts from Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks magazine hits the newsstands today and you have a chance to win a copy of it on the
Quilty Pleasures blog.
Here's my name in print:

Here's a picture of the whole quilt:

And here's my current quilt in progress:

The flowers will be raw edge appliqué, done on the long arm and the vines are bias strips and will be stitched down on the long arm also.
This is just beautiful! Way more work then I would want to do. Bless you for doing two.
