Our newest quilt booklet is finished and is available now. The booklet is inspired by the colors and shades of late summer/early autumn, and these two quilts are our favorites. Although one is pieced and the other is appliquéd, they look smashing together.
Barb and I made this quilt this summer for our local homeless organization, Community Link. It was quilted by Lori Kukuk from Lawrence, KS. Didn't she do a fabulous job? It is going to be auctioned off this October 1 to benefit homeless families. Everyone needs a home and I thought this quilt from our book Home Sweet Home was the perfect one to make for this benefit. Please e-mail Leah at llampkins@communitylinc.org if you are interested in making a bid. We would love for it to go to a good home!!!
Come to think of it....since you finished the final installment of Garden Club in cross stitch....wouldn't the quilt above be a nice inspiration for a new project in cross stitch? I would love it:)
I have been trying to find one of your older patterns I've seen on pinterest, called Posies in the Valley. I can't find the book anywhere. Is there any way to purchase the pattern directly from you. Thank you. I love your work. kennickkreations@cox.net
In the "Strawberry Fields" chart, there seems to be two strawberries missing from the vine on the left side of the piece. One strawberry is at the top, the other is at the bottom. It just stands out. Was this meant to be?
