'Tis the season...

...for give aways.  Over the Thanksgiving weekend I tackled the chore of cleaning up the quilt lab.  It was actually fun because I unearthed some old quilt fragments that will serve as inspiration for some of next year's projects.  I also unearthed 6 volumes of  "Uncoverings."  This is the yearly publication of AQSG (American Quilt Study Group) and contains the papers presented at the annual seminar. The papers are on various topics related to quilt history.   I have enjoyed reading these over the years but I decided I just can't keep everything.  I have six volumes that I would like to give away to 2 lucky winners.  If you are interested, please leave a comment by next Monday night and I will draw two names to each receive three of the volumes.

  11. I have just caught up with your last few postings...can't wait to get my hands on the American P & Q mag and the Quiltmania mag (which is my favourite mag) to see your projects. Congratulations on having articles in both mag. Here in Australia we are weeks behind getting these mag, they must come on very slow boats. Love your display of green & red quilts.
