Speaking of Mother Goose...(total coincidence, I didn't know yesterday was going to be a tribute)... got my Mother Goose & Friends quilt back! I'm happy. The colors look great in my family room, but it's not for me. It's for a friend, Shana, who watched our little boy while we went on vacation. I can't wait to give it to her (she picked out the fabric & pattern.) Gee, my sister could have had a beautiful quilt, but she didn't jump at the chance to take care of a one year old. I wouldn't have either :-). Plus she lives 5 hours away & it was the middle of winter. We're not into snowy roads or I know she would have watched him & cherished every precious moment of diapers & sleeplessness.
I liked this pattern - Modern Day Diamonds. You make templates & it goes together fast, because they are big pieces. Couldn't be happier. I want to make another one for me, it looks great with 3 colors or a bunch. Would be fab out of the Ginger Blossom or Freshcut. There is a Mother Goose kit available, it's 48"x58". (side note: no snow here, we're in full Spring!) ~Corrie

Wow that Mother Goose quilt is so cute I love it, thanks for all the fun and the fun pictures. I also was enjoying the snow yesterday so I decided to crawl back under my "haystack" and go back to sleep, have a nice day...
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of this quilt and how it's just beautiful. Ya'll have great taste. I got my goodies in the mail too. Thank you SO much. You guys are always top notch. And SNOW? What the???? I'm not trying to rub it in but it's about 66 right now and beautiful. BUT, it's hard to get any air because there are so many people here! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I love it. I love the orangy red too. Plain colors often set off a quilt so striking. This one is unbelievable. Its truly artistic.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's beautiful! I love the colors.
