Isn't this Fall Quilt spectacular!!
Recently I bought another FAVOURITE book...found it in a quilt shop in Ottawa... and I haven't been able to put it down! Such eye candy...
Oh man, Kathy Schmitz knows how to draw, design and stitch!
Just check out the workmanship! Amazing!
So there I am with my TWO new books...my two new FAVOURITE BOOKS...both were released within months of each other, both written by two very talented and accomplished artists, both pertaining to quilting...and then it dawned on me...it was an "AAAHHHA moment...the moment when I remembered that these two ladies are SISTERS! Yup, they share the same DNA...the same gene that makes them wonderful quilters, the same gene that makes them incredibly talented artists, designers, stitchers! I bet mom was a quilter...or maybe grandma...or maybe BOTH? They had to have been influenced by someone to both take off in the area of quilting. Maybe they influenced each other! Regardless, I'm so happy that they both use quilting as a forum to release their creative talents! We are the ones who benefit...we are the lucky ones!!
Their mother must be so proud!:o)
Both of these books are available on Amazon and Connecting Threads...just sayin'...
Have a Sunny Sunday and Happy Stitching!~P
