First I have a show and tell. I won this really great book from Thoughts from Taylorsouthback blog. It was published in 2001. What is so neat about this book as you can see from one of the pages is that it has a pieced block and a "sister" block done in applique. I think some of these blocks would look really great in our new fabrics that we see in shops now. Thanks so much Pat for picking my name!
Now for some applique. None from me yet but this weekend I did work on prepping some pieces. The Christmas goodies were done by Susie. She bought them as kits from a show. I don't know the patterns. Sorry!
Look here! Susan finished this fabulous top! WOW! I love the fabrics she used. This was a free BOM from Pat Sloan's blog.
Patti has finished all her blocks from the pattern called Honoring Emma by Lori Smith. I know it will look super when she gets the top put together.After I make some spaghetti sauce I am off to my sewing room to work on prepping more pieces for my Hop To It blocks. I am behind four blocks.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

All inspirational and of course gorgeous!
Old books and magazines are such fun. Your applique ladies have amazing talent. Happy sewing and have a yummy dinner.
So many lovelies! That Lori Smith applique quilt is wonderful - love her patterns.
Happy you are pleased with The Sister Blocks book!
Have a good week.
Your 'new' book looks like an inspirational one - love the thought of the 'sister' blocks. Lovely show and Tell pics and especially the Honouring Emma blocks - that will be a real work of art once completed.
Congratulations on winning the book - it looks very interesting.
Beautiful work. Really love the blocks by Patti. Looks like a terrific book.
Congratulations on your win, that looks like a great book! Love everyone's projects...not sure how I missed that Pat Sloan bom, but I love it!
Congrats on what looks like a great win! And love the applique! I pulled mine back out today. I'm itching to get some done.
That does look like a cool book! And thank you for the happy applique eye candy... I've not seen the Lori Smith design before-- those blocks are gorgeous!
