My Addiction to Pink

Our new Rosie Outlook Quilt Pattern is a showstopper.


I love showing it off!  Of course I love pink in all it's shades.  Guess you could say I never met a pink I didn't like.  As a teenager living in San Francisco I always had a pink coat


Many years have gone by now and I don't have pink coats anymore.  I did have a beautiful pink wool suit that was my favorite until someone threw it into the wash and it became a really small .  So now I settle for a pink bedroom and pink quilts.  

I love this design.  Making hexagons is addictive and I want to design several quilts with them.  So this is number one.  I hope you like it too.

Midway, UT, Zermatt Resort and Season's of Home.

After a trip up Provo Canyon past Sundance and Deer Creek Reservoir I took the road to Midway Utah and discovered a land I'd never seen before.  What fun to stop at Zermatt Resort and feel like you are in Switzerland or Germany and only be 35 miles from my home.  I especially loved the flowers.  It was so quaint











And better yet on the way home my friend Krisanne and I stopped in at a wonderful quilt store - Season's of Home.  They carried lines of fabric I rarely see in the other stores which was a treat and several new pattern designers.  I wished I had time to make several of the quilts on display.

What a great time last week at the Riley Blake Fabric Fest in Las Vegas, NV.  There was eye candy everywhere you looked.  I can hardly wait until our own Quilt St. George Quilt Retreat on January 14-17, 2014.

I also had a booth at Fabric Fest last week and also I had quilts in the fashion show.  Altogether I was showing 13 quilts.  Here are some of the pictures.

Eleanor Burns from Quilt in a Day is a quilting legend.

Red Riding Hood

I had to name the quilt Red Riding Hood because the fabric on the back is red with small white polka dots and it has a strip of "Red" herself prancing across the back of the quilt.  So Cute!



So here is the quilt.  Kathryn Carbine from Stitching Corner, Orem quilted so beautifully.  this is one of my favorite quilts.  Patterns are available on my website.
