Emerald Bracelet Lap QuiltReady to see my latest quilt finish? Here it is! This quilt has been on my mind for what seems like years, but it only took about five months from cutting to binding.

The top is pieced from a variety of Kona solids, the backing is Pearl Bracelet by Lizzy House, and the binding is Crosshatch Sketch by Timeless Treasures. I quilted it with white Aurifil 50 WT thread. The pattern was easy to follow and…

I research not just for dates, but for the little nuggets of personality and personal history that are recorded, sometimes…

Sunday Quilt Inspiration: GreenAs our leaves are beginning to turn their beautiful fall colors, I thought we might spend a few minutes looking at some of the green things in our world. And some quilts in greens... The thing that started my thinking about green was a car that I saw on the way home this afternoon. It was an odd shade of emerald green that really caught my attention. So I thought I'd leave you with a green car. It's not exactly the right shade or even the same type of car, but you get the idea. What did you…
