I have good news to share - Blue and White Quilts by Martingale Publishing will be released December 2nd!! We are so excited to be part of the designers that were selected for this book. We had a picture of the cover and now we have a picture of our quilt, Tree of Life, that we can share. Here's the description of the book from the Martingale website:
Crisp, calm, and captivating--experience the magic of blue & white! From the editors of the best seller Red & White Quilts comes a fresh take on another timeless color combination.

We will have kits for our Tree of Life quilt on our website in mid- November and books as soon as it is released!
We've been super busy over the past 2 months with Market and Festival quilts (my sewing machine is eagerly awaiting its idle time while I am in Houston), but both Paula and I managed to get in some family travel time and a retreat. Paula traveled to Denver, CO to visit her daughter Ashley and son-in-law Robert and trips to Breckenridge for Oktoberfest and the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum were some of the highlights. What a surprise it was for Paula to see our Lancaster quilt hanging in the museum shop. It is their donation/raffle quilt. If you are interested in obtaining tickets, please contact the museum:

I visited my daughter Megan, son-in-law Brian and adorable grandson Adam on my trip and got to spend the weekend enjoying Louisville. It was supposed to be both Peter and I, but we were in the potential path of a hurricane, so I got out of Dodge and Peter stayed to deal with Dorian. Luckily it skipped us this time. Hurricane season is almost over and looks like we've made it through unscathed!!

Watch for emails and future blog posts with all of our quilts for Market and Festival. Paula has four collections that will be featured at Market and we have completed quilts with kits for all of them!! Chatham Row (Ancient Stars and Jubilee Celebration), Hill Country Heritage (BOM and Woven Heritage), Paula's Companions (Pavement and Fav's #7) and Mood in Blue (Indigo Baskets of Plenty), plus re-do versions of Simple Star and Second Hand Clothes. Wow, when I look at this list I am amazed at how much we've accomplished! It's no wonder my sewing machine is ready for some R&R!!
I shared pictures of Second Hand Clothes as I was working on it and we received some great comments. It is one of our favorite quilts and the pattern is one of our best sellers - 110 different fabrics, what's not to love! One of the comments also came with a picture. Ruth Ann Clark shared her hand-pieced, hand-quilted Second Hand Clothes that is on the full-size bed in their A-frame tent that she and her husband share as Civil War reenacters. Great job Ruth Ann and thank you for letting me share your picture!

Until next time, happy quilting,

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
