Have you seen the June issue of American Patchwork and Quilting?
Page 16, bottom left hand corner?
Yes, that's my quilt! I'm so excited they used my quilt picture! It's taken almost a year for it to appear. Shortly after I finished the quilt I emailed a picture to the magazine. During the summer they sent an email stating they wanted to use it and asked a bunch of questions. A couple of months ago they called with another question or two and said it would be in the June issue. I wanted to wait to really see it was there before I mentioned anything. I am overjoyed at my tiny few minutes of fame. I sent a copy of the magazine to my Mom to show it to her.
Along with that, I am linking up with Bonnie Hunter at Quiltville for "What's On Your Bed" with this same quilt. Here it is on my bed:
I know I have posted about it before but for anyone who has not seen it, the pattern is Two Piece Puzzle by Tara Lynn Darr of Sew Unique Creations. The pattern was in the April 2010 issue of American Patchwork and Quilting. Tara did hers in red, white and black but I love Red, white and blue together, so I made the little change. It is a striking combination, I love this quilt.
I'll be back later with more quilting info!
Again, congratultions! I've wondered for a week when you would get around to sharing the honor! It truly is a beautiful quilt! ---"Love"
