My dear friend Mildred treated me to this lovely quilt pattern (in a roundabout way!). Thank you so much, Mildred! It's from Thimble Blossoms, an Etsy shop run by Camille Roskelley, who sells lovely patterns. You can see her blog here.Isn't it charming? I love the simplicity, and all that open space to showcase lovely quilting. Now I just need to find someone who can produce some lovely quilting, huh? Hahaha!
I can't wait to get my hands on it, and go select the fabrics (because I doubt I'll be able to find the fabrics shown, although you never know!). Anyway, if I use different fabrics it will truly be one of a kind, right?
Imagine this quilt done in fall colors with mums where the daisy is. Or Christmas colors with poinsettias... oh - or beachy colors with seashells! I think the possibilities are endless. I'll work on the main version (the one shown) a little at a time, I think, when I need a break from studying. And, if I pass the boards, I might whip up the fall version for a giveaway. So, thank you again, Mildred! Your kindness definitely brightened my week!

Hi Terri, I love the quilt pattern. I have never attempted to make a quilt but I sure do love them. I think choosing the fabrics would be the fun part! I think with Autumn around the corner, you will enjoy sewing. Glad you found something you like!
pattern is good. Thanks for sharing..
That is a cute pattern Terri. I bet you'll come up with something great!
Thank you, Mildred! Choosing the fabrics is fun. I hope I can come up with something beautiful.
Susan, there are several nice patterns in that collection!
Susie, I hope it turns out as well as I'm picturing it in my mind!
What fun! Can't wait to see what you pick.
I need to find a way to quilt my quilt I'm making. I don't want to hand quilt it. I don't have a way of doing it anyways. I'm looking up techniques on using a plain old sewing machine. If you have any suggestions I would love to hear them.
Cornbread? HA HA HA HHAAAAH! Love it!
Amy, I hope it will turn out well - can't wait to get the pattern!
Heidi, I left another comment on your blog - you can quilt with a regular machine, and it's so easy I don't know if I'll bother with a fancy machine even if I could afford it - as long as mine starts behaving again, that is!
The quilt pattern is beautiful. Hope you have fun with it and share with us what you come up with! Have a great weekend, Terri!
