In Full Bloom..

When we were at The Country Loft on Monday…(WHAT?… you MISSED our trip?..here’s a REFRESHER..)…anyway…while at the Loft we spotted this sweet Wool Mat!!  Drop Dead Gorgeous!  Get the paddles out and resuscitate me gorgeous!

Two of our group snapped up the pattern..while I held back saying I think I saw this in either Quiltmania or Primitive Quilts Magazine…and then prayed that I was right!  I want to make this stunner!!

So of course first thing Tuesday morning I dug through the few magazines that I had brought with me!!  Some issues are just too good to leave at home!!…

YAHOO!!  Look at what I found!!  Love this mat!!  It’s a Kathy Cardiff pattern and it’s called ‘In Full Bloom’! 

(You can check out Kathy’s website HERE!)

If you’re like me and collect most Quiltmania Magazines then you probably have this issue!!  It’s a REALLY good one!

It also has Norma Whalley’s ‘Star Garden’ in it! Another Drop Dead Gorgeous Quilt (or DDGQ for short)!

With all of these DDG Quilts tempting us, it’s a good thing Quilters are a hearty group!  The way these talented designers keep cranking them out there wouldn’t be too many of us left!!  I believe it’s called..survival of the fittest!! :o))

Thanks for stopping by..hope you have a thrilling Thursday and Happy Stitching!~P
