November skipped by in a most pleasant way! In the midst of cooking, cleaning and endless home projects I have finally finished my Farmer's Wife quilt! My goal was to get it done and on my bed on Thanksgiving weekend, and I accomplished it.

Dresden Plate Blog Hop - Week 2
Week one of the blog hop was really terrific, I loved the variety of quilts! I really appreciated all the wonderful comments that were left on my post - I've been trying to reply, but most of them are coming up as no-reply addresses, but know that I am truly appreciative of all your wonderful words of encouragement! I will draw for the giveaway on Friday, so if you missed my post, go check it out and comment now.
The blog hop will resume on Tuesday the 12th with this beautiful collection designed by Jerry Khiev, who took this beautiful picture of my quilt for the Island Batik Catalog! This is my new pattern, Midnight Dance, using the Midnight Garden collection. You can see it features beautiful blue and brown florals! I love it!
Purchase Midnight Dance on Etsy! |
I thought it would be fun to play with the design in Christmas fabrics, so I tried it using Once Upon a Christmas from Moda - I love this one, too!
