The time has finally come that I'm able to share my exciting news. My quilt is in the upcoming April 2014 issue of American Patchwork & Quilting magazine. Here's a picture of the cover (not my quilt), but the little "gorgeous applique" square in the upper right hand corner refers to my project.
Yes, obviously I'm excited, this is my first time being published.
This project was such a labor of love. From the first design work, finding just the right fabric, and then working up the first block. Joyous colors, my favorite actually. Who can't love purple and orange?
The diagonal set of the repeated block is what creates all the movement and I can't wait to try this idea again, I've got a dozen ideas floating around in my head. I hesitate to make a new time commitment and then realized I can make just one block and multiply it on the computer before I continue on. Hmmm...I may be getting started sooner than I thought.
