Burgandy Quilt

I finished the burgandy quilt today. I think my customer will be well pleased.

I was able to use my Martelli quick bind system to do the binding
Had it done in no time. This is such a time saver.
Now I have all my alterations done - all my immediate customers are taken care of, so I can start packing for my trip. I will be leaving on Thursday for 2 weeks.
No more work
no more cooking and cleaning
just driving to see my grandbabies.

206 Patchwork Quilt Patterns

'Whether you are a novice or an accomplished, experienced quilter, this wonderful book will give you everything you need to know in order to make over two hundred quilts from the designs of quilts made by actual American pioneer women!'

step-by-step instructions
cutting designs
materials suggestions
yardage estimates


I came across this website for 206 Patchwork Quilt Patterns and thought it was worth a look. You can check it out and while you are there you can sign up for a free ebook 'A Little Book About Quilting' which was compiled from multiple sources written during the early 1900's. It is 57 pages and a pretty good read. It also has a few diagrams and a pattern - did I mention it was free.
