a lovely surprise
Yesterday I finished sewing these Crowfoot blocks together. I want this quilt for my bed so it needs some borders to make it bigger. This picture gives an idea of how it will look.
Next I will start the pieced border. I hope to quilt this by hand so it could be a couple years before we're sleeping under it. :0)
This is the inspiration quilt. It's in Betsy Chutchian's book "Gone to Texas". It's such a lovely book!
I was so surprised when I looked in the mail today! Marcie sent me a copy of her 2010 Christmas pattern. I have made 2 of her Christmas patterns in previous years and just love them. Thanks so very much Marcie!! I won't be able to get this done in time for Christmas but maybe I'll make it up in spring colors. The seed catalog was in the mail today too so I'm dreaming of flowers and spring as I watch the snow come down...



Happy Quilting!!
