  • We all dream of having the right pattern with the right amount of fabric with the right amount of time to devote to it. Well this miracle happened to me this past January with my Alentejana quilt by Ships & Violins. And I loved it so much I’m keeping it. Come along with me as I show you how I did.

    Karen, I wonder if when you started this channel, you would ever have thought how helpful, inspirational and interesting it would be. Thank you for all your input into the world of quilting that I have only recently dipped my toe into. I for one am very appreciative.
