Happy Friday! Today I'm sharing one more cute pattern with our Clover Hollow fabric...this pattern was designed by my daughter, Chelsi and is such a fun quilt!  She wanted to make a quilt for her little guy and also show somewhat of a different look that can be achieved with this fabric

Hello! I can't even tell you how excited I am to be able to talk a little bit about a new quilt book that is one of those "must haves!"  I was able to get a look at this book back in January, and I couldn't stop reading it!  You'll not only love it for the beautiful photos, but you'll also
