Amish Abstractions Winner

We have a winner of the beautiful Amish Abstractions book (assuming we can get Lily to give it up). drum roll...

Lucy in Indiana aka qltmom9. Congrats! I look forward to seeing your fun Amishish, liberated, lettered quilt top. (Lucy, I sent you an email. If you didn't get it then, eek, email me)

I'm so sorry I can't give each one of you a copy of the book. I do recommend it though and we'll have a class/get-together soonish.

I did try to get Pokey interested in drawing one of the slips of paper, but she would have none of it. I think I'd have to tie each one to a ball of yarn or tuck it in a sock - she likes playing with those. Lily didn't want to play with the paper either, but she was willing to model.

I couldn't decide which photo I liked better, so I included both of them...

I have two quilts that have to be bound asap. eeeek, I'm behind. ya'all take care.

  7. Those gorgeous green eyes! What a pretty girl. Lily does seem to have become pretty attached to that book. Hope you can get it away from her without losing a hand!

    Every time I stop by I think 'I am going to make a quilt like that', but I always end up chickening out. I love this book tho! I am ordering myself a copy right now.

  10. Lucky Lucy! That looks like a fab book. I'll probably be putting it on my wish list.

    Lily looks quite happy sitting on that book. . .I hope you can get it away from her! She's a pretty girl with those beautiful green eyes.

    Good luck with that binding. You're just slaving away, aren't you?! I can't wait for your book to come out!!
