What a day! The fine folks from Quiltmania Magazine paid me a visit yesterday, and we looked at piles of quilts. I heard Carol say "j'adore" a lot. Here are a few of the "j'adores" from show and tell.

We saw 40 or 50 quilts, maybe more, and at one point I opened the lower hall linen cabinets to reveal another huge stash of quilts. It was fun, and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We're going to be doing some projects together, so Bill's going to be a busy boy the next couple years. Merci beaucoup, Quiltmania!
Am looking forward to seeing your quilts in the magazine (I've been a faithful subscriber for more than a decade - their superb photography will do justice to your quilts).
ReplyDeleteJ'adore is right!! Have you ever thought of patterning the rooster album quilt? I'll bet there are more than a few of us who would jump at the chance to stitch a reproduction of that beauty! What do you say, Bill?
ReplyDeleteI think anything is possible, and love the idea of patterning the rooster. May not happen tomorrow, but I think it could happen.
ReplyDeleteOooh! I hope so! If you need someone to help... :-)

J'adore tout aussi -- and I can't wait to see you in Quiltmania. It's really the best quilt magazine out there right now.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I'd also LOVE to see a pattern for that album with the rooster. I can help too - I love drawing patterns from antique appliques.
How exciting, anything that Quiltmania does is always first class. Love the quilts you showed, and that is the cutest rooster I've seen on a quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh my golly, so many stunning quilts in one post!!! I think Quiltmania could have a regular monthly feature of your quilts!!
ReplyDeleteI really j'adore that rooster! Too gorgeous!
