I have also turned to working with some spring colors in anticipation of my next show in March. I brought out some vintage 1930-1940 fabrics. It is fun to work with pastels for a change.
I am making some stuffed bunnies and little basket blocks that will probably become ornaments, or maybe a little quilt, I don't know yet.
Of course, I had to include a couple cat photos to show what my new kitties do 23.5 hours per day--sleep on top of antique textiles or try to squeeze into a basket that is about two times too small in preparation for a little nap.
16 lbs--my husband has nick-named him Tiny.
Once again - a woman after my own heart! I LOVE that tiny quilt!!!
ReplyDeleteYou beat me to it! I was going to share the news tonight! I bought my copy today and saw your quilt while browsing through. I also admired that darling doll bed! Congrats to both you and Carolyn for another publish! Those spring fabrics are great too! ---"Love"
ReplyDeleteCongrats again! I liked what I saw in quiltmania. Not sure when you were first published in a magazine but I have an older one that looks like ships that I saved becuase it was your design.
ReplyDeleteYou inspired me and I did a bit my blog post. I purchased original chrome fabric and put it on my blog next to the repo. I could not pass it up. It is the oldest fabric I own so far. I can see why you enjoy working with old chrome.
Tiny has good taste laying on top of that beautiful antique red and green applique block!
ReplyDeletesee he fits right in his new home!

Congratulations on another published quilt! I love the quilt on the adorable doll bed. Too cute!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being published! I like the little quilt. And I like those springy florals you're working with now. And that behavior of your furry animals? Confirms they're definitely cats! Mine do the same thing (except we don't have any antique textiles, so they settle for modern day instead but often require a human form to be under them first). They're so sweet, but 16 pounds...whew! I thought I had a big boy who tips the scales at 12 pounds. So long as he's healthy and happy, the numbers don't matter. I look forward to seeing all your springy creations!
ReplyDeleteCongrsts on being published - love the little quilt! Tiny is certainly a smart cookie claiming old quilts as his own!
ReplyDeleteYay for being published!! Great job!! I always look forward to Valentine's day this time of year for the bright happy colors. This winter really feels long to me since I can't take Emily out in this weather. 9 more weeks until spring!!! Enjoy your pretty pastels and playing with your kitties. (16 pounds!?! That's almost double the size of my 3 mo daughter!) :) Christine
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on another printed quilt! I just love your tiny quilts! Love the pictures of kitties, too. They look right at home.

ReplyDeleteHappy Quilting!!
Congrats on your little doll quilt. Your tiny quilts inspire me. Although, I haven't made one yet. Your kitties are so cute and look so happy. Connie204
