In case you weren't able to attend one of my book signings,

an autographed copy of Large-block Quilts is now

available in my big cartel store.

 Seriously loving the new fabrics that came last week.
I was home to Iowa when they arrived
and since it was a sunny day and my
day off I was able to take a couple of
good shots of them.

The winners of a copy of Large-block Quilts are:

It's true to Stefanie's style.

A mix of unexpected fabric lines that work wonderful together.

Stefanie and I have known each other for over 3 years.

Good Luck!!!

I was thrilled when Kate Spain agreed to be in my book tour.

I used 3 of her Moda fabric lines in the book quilts.

 In Stop Watch it was Central Park.

It is indeed another giveaway day.

Today's stop is Sugar-ree at A Spoonful of Sugar

they made the lantern block too!

It is so pretty...

I am trully surprised by how different the quilts can be.

Her take on the Spin Patch design is awesome!

It's charming and full of sunshine.
