I am looking forward to attending one of our large annual quilt shows next weekend. Although not as spectacular as the red and white exhibiton, it is usually very enjoyable and inspiring.
In fact, last year one of my favourite quilts was a version of the Wickersham quilt. To my amazement, the lovely Sue-Anne from Buddy & Me remembered that I was after the book when she found out that one had become available! So thanks Sue-Anne. I am now the proud owner of
This quilt is a project which is now towards the top of the list!Still working away at my current projects. Nearly done with Block 2 of Lollipop trees
and enjoying it. It is easy sewing and the colours are pure happiness.I wasn't going to post about Sallie Ann until I'd finished panel 4 - but it's so close I couldn't resist
You can really see the curve starting to - well - curve. I'm going to have a short break from it now to finish aforementioned lollipop block 2.Hope to have some Quilt show photos for you next time.
Until then, happy sewing,
Deb
