Win a Gees Bend Kit from We Love Quilting

I love Gees Bend quilts, the random colors, left over fabrics, uneven strips, that leave you with a stunning, vibrant quilt.  Fabric art.

Anyway, you all can win a kit for a Gees Bend quilt from We Love Quilting.

My favorite, love the brown, blacks in this one with the off white, and the black sashing here and there.

There are two more kits, quilts to look at on their website.  Such a wonderful giveaway, go have a look.

It's the Best Quilt Book Ever!

Pinterest is like reading the best quilt book ever.  The best of the best quilts that viewers love.  I've admired this quilt before, the simplicity of the single star, from the Folk Art Museum.

I actually have had this picture of this rug torn from a magazine for a quilt I see in my head.  Finally a large picture to see the color variations, Folk Art Museum

  So much inspiration, I  have to look away sometime, makes my mind start reeling of all the quilts that need, want to be made.

And I haven't even starting looking at primitive quilts or wool.

Primitive Checkerboard & a Bald Eagle

I made this quilt several years ago and you just never know when someone else is going to like your work, especially when it's primitive, so glad Fons & Porter took a liking to it, it's in the Spring issue of Easy Quilts. And it is easy, the applique is needleturn, even the geese but the
pieces are big, so it doesn't take that long.

And then, can't post without a wildlife creature, a friend of mine took this picture of our resident Bald Eagle along the river where the clinic is located.
