Heritage Happenings....

These pictures were taken at our Heritage meeting from a couple of weeks ago...I know...I'm bad!  A lot of these wonderful quilts are for charity!  Heritage Quilt Guild has a ton of talented and very generous quilters!  I am going to let you wander through their quilts at your leisure~ 

 This quilt is going to be a wedding gift.  It's called 'Chopsticks' and is by Jaybird Quilt Designs...and it it HUGE!!  Love the back too!

There are triangles of orange popping here and there but the folds in the quilt are hiding them!  Darn!!

This is the back of Aude's quilt...so pretty!!

 And so is the front!

 'Scrappy Mountain Majesties' by designer Bonnie Hunter (free pattern on her blog).  Love this colour way!

 And Sandy 'whipped' up this bag...after buying the pattern and fabric from 'The Threaded Needle' booth at the Victoria Quilt Show...

 She did an awesome job as it is absolutely gorgeous!

So there you have it!  Lots of eye candy on this beautiful Friday morning!

Hope you have a FUN Friday and Happy Stitching~P

Sweet and Simple...

A short post this morning...just long enough to provide you with a bit of eye candy while you savour that morning coffee!

 It's a Cheri Payne design...sweet and simple!  Just the way I like 'em!  It's the Angel from "Log Cabin Christmas"...

You can find the pattern HERE!

Have a thrilling Thursday and Happy Stitching!~P

Playful Peels...I mean Petals!

Several of you 'out there' were wondering if yesterday's quilt came from a pattern or if Ann invented her gorgeous quilt!  

Well I am pleased to say that Ann used a pattern that came from this book, "Playful Petals" by Corey Yoder. 

And I am happy to say that this book is chock full of beautiful quilts...in fact it is now on my radar!  I will be looking for this one for sure!  I mean REALLY who doesn't like petals (we oldies call them PEELS:o)!!  When I googled the title, I found several modern quilting blogs had done a Blog Hop reviewing the book...and created some wonderful projects in the process!  Check HERE for a list so that you can visit each and every single one!

OR if you are in a hurry, you can check 'Diary of a Quilter' for her review...go HERE!  Moda's pictures are HERE!  

You will notice that we are a little late to the party...like TWO YEARS late...but hey, better late than never!  And I know what you are thinking...these are MODERN quilts...well I do like to dabble and these orange peel quilts...I mean petal quilts.... are something that I would actually enjoy making!  And who's stopping you from making these quilts out of Civil War fabrics, reproduction fabrics or any other line of fabrics?  What's old is new again!  Peel away!

Have a wonderful Wednesday and Happy Stitching!~P
