Quilting holds together the layers of a quilt, as love holds together the individuals in a family. We never know what new corners, twists or turns life will bring, but we know to have faith, trust God and hang on for the ride. Join me as I quilt around the corners of my life and share the highlights. Saturday, March 10, 2012. Quilt Shop Hop FUN! Spring Fever 2012 shop hop highlights.

Monday, June 18, 2012. Red White Blue and Christmas. A few weeks ago I showed my design wall with a mixed up bunch of red, white, and blue blocks. This is what I came up with. The backing and border fabric was given to me, but the patches and squares for the top were leftovers just waiting to be used. And of course I quilted my favorite swirls. Another Log Cabin for Jean.

It started out of necessity and frugality; women gathered fabric remnants and re-used them to create objects of warmth. Though they were made to serve a function, these quilts recorded a lifestyle and family history. From simple patchwork designs to artful appliqué blocks, each quilt carries a rich story of our past. Take advantage of our free border pattern collection to add visual impact to one of your existing quilt designs.
