Love Birds...

 
Love Birds.......a table topper I designed a year ago.....It is brushed cottons and homespuns and this is the first year it's been home for me to use.  The doves are from wool, as well as the leaf and berry cluster at the top of the heart.

I will be gone for the next few days and will be back blogging on Monday the 12th.  I'll miss having these little chats with you, but hopefully I will have some good things to share when I return.  I look forward to the retreat in St. George.  I will be teaching 2 all day classes, At Home in the Garden and Star Garden.  I'm looking forward to meeting new quilters, and to share ideas and our love of quilting.

  6. This is beautiful. I wish I didn't have so many unfinished projects I need to work on because I could spend 2015 working only on your designs and be a very happy lady. I might have to get this pattern, definitely on my want to make list.
