I need some taller assisstants ...

My kids want to help me hold up quilts. They are 5-years old and more than helpful. Here is a picture of them holding a quilt I did for a customer at Christmas.


Clearly, I need some taller assistants! Although it is nice that they want to help Mommy.




This was one of those patterns that I was so happy after I "created" it. I thought man that is a good block. You can use lovely florals and showcase the fabrics. I was so excited and I asked one of my quilty friends what they thought of it. Her response was ... yeah I love "Swoon" by Camille Roskelley of Thimble Blossoms. 

SAY WHAT? I thought this was a Jennifer Blosser original! I looked at her pattern and I did make some of my pieces different. I do not know what size Camille's is, but I do love her "Ruby" line! Oh well, it is still a good star pattern. I would highly recommend getting Camille's pattern. And her book is cute too!

You can get "Swoon" here.

  2. You need to take the same picture of your helpers holding that quilt year after year. It would be a neat way to chart their growth! It's a lovely quilt.

  4. I hear in some places people just pass off patterns as their own. They even hang them in their stores and when told "oh I just loved that on the cover of (insert magazine name), they still claim it as their own. BAHAHAH.
