To Market, To Market…

It must have been a long, cold winter…and we all KNOW what happens on those looonnng, cold winter nights…Quilt Designers write books, of course!!

Buggy Barns’ newest creation is coming out as we speak…

 

It’s another CRAZY book…this one is Undeniably the Craziest…because it’s called UndeNiably Crazy!  I have a hard time remembering the titles to these books…I own several…just don’t remember which CRAZY books they are…???  This one does look good though…

And did you hear about Kathy Cardiff’s first book?  Kathy Cardiff teaches classes at The Country Loft in LaMesa, CA…and designs wonderful quilts and penny rugs.  Kathy’s book is called ‘The Cottage at Cardiff Farms Quilts’. I LOVE HER PATTERNS so I just KNOW I’m going to love her bookS!  Notice that I say bookS…I predict many cold, winter nights for this designer!

Just look at the cover…gorgeous quilt +gorgeous dog= BEST SELLER!!  Kathy had a book signing party at the Country Loft the other day…and we got to go via Blogland.  You can go too…click HERE and HERE…SEW much FUN!!

Now I also hear that JoAnn Mullaly (also from the Country Loft) has her THIRD book out!!  You go GIRL!!  I am really excited about this one…it’s called ‘Folk Branches’ and I JUST KNOW that it’s going to be FULL of JoAnn Goodness! 

The cover says it all!!  Look at this quilt!!  You can go HERE to find out all about ‘Folk Branches’!  Just to refresh your memory, JoAnn is the Author behind my favourite all time book…‘Wool Crazy’ and ‘Crazy at Home’…and now she is ‘branching out’!

And I CAN’T forget Cheryl Wall’s new book, ‘At Home With Country Quilts’…yup…those Canadian Winters get mighty cold too…so it’s fun to see the Canadian designers pumping out new books too!!  And I do love Cheryl’s quilts!! (thanks for the reminder, Mary!!)

 

It’s a busy time of the year for Quilt designers as they all head off to Market, to Market…to sell a fat book…then home again, home again jiggity-jig!   Can’t wait to see pictures from Market…all those new books, fabrics, patterns, gizmos and gadgets!  Bring ‘em on…yeah, bring ‘em on…we’re waiting…!

Have a Wild Wednesday and Happy Quilting!~P
