Fall 2010 Bloggers Quilt Festival is here....

This is so exciting .. I love to visit Quilt Blogs and be inspired by all the remarkable talents there is out there in blog land. Thanks Amy for doing this.


This is my absolute favourite.....

Birdhwoodlane House.. in the Birchwood Lane fabric by ♥Holly Taylor♥...I made this quilt last year and have not stopped admiring it since it is finished.

  • I love everything about this quilt...
  • The fact that it is Christmas (My favourite time of the year ) fabric..and the colors are gorgeous.
  • My favourite quilt pattern of all, is the Log Cabin. The combination of the house and the log cabin blocks makes it the best(est) :) of all the projects I have made.
  • I enjoyed making it because I love strip piecing and the appliqué was a delight to do.
  • The embroidery was a bit intimidating but I was excited to add this to the project, a totally new technique for me.

This quilt will be hanging on the wall opposite my Christmas tree ...

Now I am off to blog hop... and admire those beautiful projects of those taking part in the Bloggers Quilt Festival......
