Winner!

Congratulations to andsewon!!  You have won a FREE signed copy of Primitives Magazine.  Send me your contact information and I will post it out right away.  Thank you to everyone who entered this contest.

Meanwhile our Sup n Sew met recently at Beverly's house and I was able to snoop through some of the quilts she has made.  Here's what I found.  A doll quilt wrapped and tied around a vintage wooden spool.
 I first met Beverly at The Temecula Quilt Company.  We took their Monday class which constantly had great projects like this one...
 Here is a close up of the blocks on point.
 Beverly was just finishing the single binding on this Jan Patek design.
 We talked about the quilting, since I have recently started doing the cross hatching before I add the applique'.  But Beverly sewed right through hers and it came out really nice.  I might have to try it this way.
Always a fun night when we get out and share our love of quilting.

I am glad you showed the quilting over the applique.. I always quilt "around" the appliques and that makes for a lot of stop and starting... never tried doing the quilting before adding the applique either... so 2 new ways for me to go.

Thanks
