Still busy with working at the LQS, both in the shop and making shop samples, also off to LQS classes. Here is the Jo Morton pattern we'll be working on for the next Jo's Little Women class:


and here are Show and Tells from previous Jo projects:



(oh, this one is by our Noble Leader)




Here are a few Show and Tells of non-Jo patterns. Is this not a beautiful version of this Lori Smith pattern?

A Christmas-y one:

One for a new baby. You would not believe the adorable quilting in this one, including a bear, a cat, a little boy, etc. A truly inspired baby quilt:

Same maker made this gorgeous, huge quilt from all reproduction scraps:

and had it custom-quilted:

Received my eBay purchase, enormous lot of vintage patterns, 32 of which I'm keeping and 42 or so I'm going to resell. I got so many darling patterns in this group, can't wait to make one or two things to wear from the sizable fabric-for-clothes stash collection that I have...haven't sewn clothes for beaucoup years:

It was jackpot day for the mails. Received these sale fabrics:

and these:
Oh, and my longarmer friend may begin quilting Lazy Afternoon today. She had a brilliant idea for the quilting pattern. It is going to look so pretty.

Love that non-star blue quilt, what is that pattern? looks kind of like a snowball variation of some sort... (I can see it done in taupes...)

Oh what fun show and tell. Now my current biggest problem. How are you and all these people quilting all these small quilts? I'm running out of ideas - and can I just cross-hatch all of them? Seems kind of boring even if it is my favorite kind of quilting. The one I"m stuck on right now is the pink/brown one on my blog.

I am just finishing up my first Jo Morton quilt for next week. It's the broken dishes pattern too. It's fun to see how different they all look and the colors that are used.
Thank you so much for sharing.
