I am leaving Wednesday for Reardon, Washington. I will be teaching at the Buggy Barn - Thursday and Friday of this week. Gathering Baskets has popped up on several sights and Quilt Hollow posted a partial picture of her friends quilt just last week (Thank you!), so thought I would post a picture along with It's a Crock! I'll be teaching classes on both of these pieces - Thursday and Friday of this week. I'll share pictures when I return.
I wanted to write a note with the smile box.......but my fingers were quicker than my brain it seems. Primitive Youngins was published last fall. I've had so many people ask about it recently that I thought I would post it for everyone to see.
It's a 6 project book of smaller quilts that are named "games" we used to play as children. Perhaps it will take you down memory lane - if only for a little while!
I am working on the new patterns, trying to get a smile box of that made too. I will post it as soon as my pattern club members have gotten a chance to see it....they always see things first.

That quilt is a real beauty!!! Saw it on Mary´s blog and fell in love with it..:o))
I was wondering which pattern that was. It looked like your work but couldn't place it. Obviously I haven't bought that one yet! I hope "It's a Crock" is one of the new small wool patterns coming out soon that you keep teasing about.
Oh...thanks for that shout out! Too fun!
Lynda - I've been a fan of yours for years. You have such creative, primitive ideas. I had hoped to meet you at Prims of the Midwest this summer but had to cancel at the last minute. Thank goodness I have the kit for the wool runner you picture on the blog. Have fun at the BARN!
Lynda-so excited that you will be in my neck of the woods...just sorry I won't be taking your class (sigh)but I will be happy to travel to see all the glorious quilts at the Buggy Barn on Saturday...hope you have a good trip!!
Such delicious projects . . . . Buggy Barn is on my dream list *s*
Buggy Barn is on my dream list, too. It's raining this morning (aahahhh!) and I'm working on my Aunt Maggie's Dancing Shoes. One of my childhood friends was Maggie so I am thinking of her while making this quilt. Who is the real Aunt Maggie?
Have fun @ Buggy Barn.
Best regards from Gail in Washington State
Gail - Aunt Maggie was my Grampa Cameron's only sister. There were lots of boys, I think 7 or 8 and only the one girl. She and my gramma (that would make them sister-in-laws) went to barn dances together. Grampa always thought the children needed a chaperone and he didn't dance. Gramma and Great Aunt Maggie both loved to dance the highland fling. Mom says they were very good too. Not knowing about highland anything I just take her word for it. lol
Friends are wonderful. Glad you have a Maggie too!
Oh goodie! I am so looking forward to what you will be doing next! I am addicted to your work, it really speaks to my soul!
I saw Gatering Baskets hanging in Quilts Plus in Indianapolis on Monday. It's crazy beautiful!
Can you pick me up on your way to Buggy Barn?
I saw the basket quilt over at Quilt Hollow -- it's gorgeous!
Both are stunning!!! I can't wait to get the patterns.
