Hello, and happy 4th of July! I think this photo kind of says 4th of July to me…and sums up some of my favorite things: quilts, porches, flowers, books, and even lemonade! Yep, this photo is definitely a favorite.
And, this picture is a sneek peek…it’s from the upcoming book, Sweet Celebrations (the one I told you about here)! The quilt on the rocking chair is my project in the book Sweet Celebrations with Moda Bakeshop Chefs: 35 Projects to Sew from Jelly Rolls, Layer Cakes, Fat Quarters, Charm Squares & More
! This is one of my favorite quilts ever…and it’s been away from home for a pretty long time now…glad I have this picture!
Thanks so much for stopping by…I hope you have a wonderful day!

How lovely, Sherri, and perfect for the 4th of July. I've got a lot of blues and have been wondering what to do with them and I think I might just have the answer – at least for a little bit of my stash. Thank you!

Oh, how beautiful! The entire photo is gorgeous but oh, how I love that quilt. Exquisite. Is this from a fabric line not released yet? The border fabric is really calling to me.

OK, I have just got to know so I can make sure to get one/two and have on hand for this pattern when it is available. Does it use a precut?

OH what fun… you got to do a patriotic project in the book! You have me on pins and needles… I can't wait to see your project in Sweet Celebrations AND in the APQ calendar! Any more surprises up your sleeve?

OK, I swore (except I don't swear) that I would not buy another book. I guess you can figure out whats coming next! YOUR QUILT on the rocking chair has sold the book to me! I cannot wait to get the book. I just have to wait…
Mama Pea says
Wow, what a great photo. Wish I was sitting on that porch, relaxing, enjoying a splash of lemonade, reading a book, and having a breeze that made me want to cover up with that quilt!
Janet says
I am excited to see the whole quilt! The colors are just gorgeous. The book will be a must have.
luverlie says
That quilt is beautiful. I only hope the fabrics will be available when the book is. Your choice of colors and fabrics and pattern are intertwined. Thanks for sharing.

Ooohh I love this one too! It embodies everything I feel a cozy quilt should have, soft warm colors, kind of a scrappy look like you saved all your best scraps just for this. Very inspiring!
