It's Here!

Day 1 - of 100 days of Quilts



Love Joy Peace Retreat '06 quilt



Here is the first quilt of many yet to come! While gathering photo's of our quilts, we have had a long walk down memory lane. And we stuggled with which quilt we should post first. We don't want to show you the quilts from our earliest work to our latest - that would be too dull. So we have decided to surprise you every day.




This is clearly a favorite, and it has not been seen by many people. It is Cori's own personal quilt that she made using our Love Joy Peace fabric line. It was a new version of a sampler, and we taught this quilt as our retreat project back in 2006. So only those students who attended the class have ever received this pattern. From time to time we get asked if we will ever release it as a full pattern to the public...and if you catch us on the right day, we just might decide to do that.

I was one of the privileged to have attended this retreat and made this quilt. I will always be one of my favourites! I completed it for my oldest daughter's wedding. She loves it.

What a special Quilt and great fabric design! I story behind the fabric with all the words is great, too. Thanks Myra for sticking to what you wanted and you got it!

My quilt is at the machine quilter. I'm anxious to get it back but every minute of waiting to see how she embellishes the quilt is worth it!

Thank you!
