Things That Make Me Happy

I have a quilt in the latest issue of Love Patchwork & Quilting. Not only is it in the issue but it made the cover.


Sorry, I don't want to come across as a complete smug, braggart here - but this made my day week month. I've wondered if I would ever get to be cover girl. And I am so freaking excited by the fact that I finally did.

The quilt is actually a dark pink not red like lots of people think. I love the simplicity of it. So not the usual for me and I really have to try more quilts along these lines. It's easy peasy to make as well.


So a huge thank you to Love Patchwork & Quilting for making a quilty dream come true. Now I'm just going to go sit in the corner and hug my copy for a little while. Oh, and phone my dad and make him buy a few copies too.

    How exciting! Congrats....Not bragging at all....I get excited when someone is kind enough to stop by my blog and leave a comment. I could not even image how excited I would be if my quilt made a cover! IT is so cool, love the design of the quilt and the graphic print on the back.
