Summertime

When spring dandelions turn into giant snowballs it is a sign that summertime is here. It is one of my favorite times of the year!

Full of horsing around,

beautiful flowers in vibrant red,

unusual blues,

and delicate pink.

Leaves that seem full of live and greener than ever,

mouthwatering fruits,

and main street car shows are some of the things that we look for.

Summertime visitors head to our very small “bed and breakfast”

and we enjoy an occasional quiet afternoon waiting for the hay to dry.

I try not to let these special moments fly by with out stopping to enjoy them.

As I sit for a moment on the porch in the sun,

I browse through the pages of MODA’s fall 2013 catalog. This is a great way to see what will be arriving in your favorite quilt store this fall.

Click here or on the picture above to see the pages from the catalog with “Hope Chest” fabric collection, patterns, and some fun trivia about Laundry Basket Quilts.

It was a pleasure making these quilts from the upcoming “Hope Chest” group.
