Seasons

I had a few inquiries about this quilt.   I couldn’t answer you individually because you are “no reply” commenters.  That means that your email address doesn’t show up when I try to reply back to you.    You might want to change that in your settings.  A couple of blogs that have instructions on how to do that are Woolie Mammoth and Humble Quilts.  Good Luck.

The quilt can be found in the book “A Nice Mix” by Gerry Kimmel-Carr.   It is out of print but you might try eBay or Amazon for used copies. 

The little critters in each row were designed by Verna Mosquera who was the teacher I took the class from.   Those are not part of the original design in the book.  

Good Luck in your search for the book.  

I want to thank all of you who took the time to stop by and comment on my little quilt show.   It really meant a lot to me. 

I’m getting the pictures together for the February projects that Sandy and I did.  Hoping to get that posted tomorrow!

Hugs, Anne

Featured Quilter

 

I was humbled and honored to be chosen as the Featured Quilter for February at Quiltworks here in Bend, OR.  There is always a reception on the first Friday of the month to open the gallery.   This month, however, we had a big snowstorm and for the first time ever, the reception was cancelled.  The funny thing about that is….I had a dream the previous weekend that no one came to the reception.  Looks like that was a foreshadowing of what actually happened.  Even I didn’t show up!

Oh well, the quilts will be up the whole month.     I thought I’d give you an overview of how the gallery looked with all the quilts hanging.   It was overwhelming for me to see a lot of my quilts hanging in one place.

Because of where they were displayed, a couple of the quilts were hard to photograph in the overview.

Mr CnW thought I needed to be in one of the pictures!

And this is me pointing to my bio that I wrote.  Looks like I got a bit carried away since it ended up on 2 pieces of paper.  I usually don’t have that much to say about myself.  Smile

A huge thanks to Marilyn and Dave (owners) and Mary Ann (their fabulous employee in charge of the display) for choosing me to be your Featured Quilter for February.  

If you are ever in Bend, be sure and stop by the shop and take a look at that month’s display.   It’s a wonderful experience.  

Next week, I’ll share the February projects that Sandy and I have finished up!

Hugs, Anne
