I am so excited to be posting a quilt of my own for the Fall Blogger's Quilt Festival! I spent countless hours pouring over everyone else's entries in the Spring. So I set up this blog shortly after just so that I could get in on the action for the Fall show!
My favorite quilt at the moment is this quilt that my sister and I made together for the Sisters Quilt Show in Sisters, Oregon this past summer. We came up with the design when we were at the 2008 Quilt Show and then we both made 10 blocks. I live in California and she lives in Seattle so we worked on it when we saw each other throughout the year and put it all together. We were obviously inspired by a log cabin style block and we put a scrappy spin on it. We were so excited to be able to travel to Sisters again this summer to see our own quilt in the show. It is an amazing quilt show with over 1300 quilts hung all over town from all the buildings. I will have to do a separate post to show off some of our other favorites.
For now the quilt is on my bed and I love it! Thanks so much to Amy for hosting the quilt show again! You know where I will be on Sunday while my husband watches football!
This quilt is just beautiful! You two should be very proud of yourselves!

ReplyDeleteI love your quilt, the colors are and fabrics are awesome. I am working on a quilt right now with my sister that we plan to give to our mom as a Christmas present.
