Magazine Quilts and Vacation fun

April 11, 2016July 27, 2020 2 comments

Wow. April is moving fast this year- or is it just me? The quilt show in Denver was great. I got to meet some fun people and chat and see cool quilty stuff… Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say HI!

The booth!

Then Sunday I flew to Florida to spend my birthday with my son Scott. Hubby was going to FL for business so I thought I would tag along for a couple of days. I had so much fun.

I got to hang out at Disney with Scott and his sweet girl Jocelyn.

I got to spend a little time the next day puppy sitting for the grand puppy,  and just be away. It was a quick trip but I am so glad I went.

And now back home and trying to catch up with orders and quilts and all that stuff. I just finished a quilt top so it is off to Crystal for her to work her long arm quilting magic.

And I’m working on a couple of new projects. Shhh….

I realized I have not shown you the latest quilts in McCalls Quilting and Quiltmaker magazine! Silly me!

This is my quilt Mix it Up in the May June 2016 issue of McCall’s Quilting magazine.

I used fabrics from Riley Blake from their Basics lines. So cute (at least I think so)!

    I love all your quilts but “Mix It Up” hits it out of the ballpark for me! Truly a great quilt in both pattern and fabric-can’t wait to get my hands on the new issue and see up close.
