Newest Quilting Project

I do believe I announced that my next quilt will be the Red Hot or Hot Red quilt shown in the recent edition of BH&G Patchwork & Quilting magazine.

Christmas went on forever here because of the weather in Minnesota and North Dakota. I have one more package to deliever out of town and then I will be able to CLOSE the door on 2009's festivities. One can develop negative feelings about a holiday that "drags."

So here I am ready for this year and yesterday pull all the startling "reds" I could find in my stash, washed, dryed and today I will iron them all and clear a bin to store them. Then I will look for material with ecru or winter white backgrounds with bright red flowers or accents for the variation geese. That pattern is all flying geese, but not geese in "flight." This will be challenging and fun. Need to keep testing the old mathematical mind to make sure it's working.

The next time you are standing in line to check out in a K-Mart, or Target, or Wal-Mart look at the magazine racks and I bet you'll see a BH&G Patchwork and Quilting magazine among the array. My heart has never left Iowa where Meredith Publishing Company originated. In the early forties I worked for them as the Branch Office Auditor and Cost Accountant. My first job out of college before I left to attend Indiana U.

I've been spending the morning in this fridgid land ironing my Hot Reds.

Thanks all of you for car>I don't get this magazine so I have no idea what quilt your talking

A few days before Christmas I was standing in line at the supermarket check-out when I saw this magazine and took it out of the rack. The man behind me said something like, 'quilting, the most useless hobby in the world. I replied without thinking, oh I don't know. It keeps my nose out of other people's business. He began to laugh and said maybe I should take up that hobby. He then said that he didn't really mean it, he was just trying to make a joke. The upshot was that we chatted about quilting and then he wrote his first name and phone number on the back of the magazine. I am supposed to call him when my present project, a queen size, is finished, because he wants me to make him that quilt. My whole family tells me not to meet him at home but in a coffee shop or some place neutral. I'm not sure that I'll even make the phone call, but it was a fun moment in a busy day and your post reminded me of it. Quilting does bring unlikel;y people together. Larchie.

I just perused the link Sandy E provided. What a beautiful quilt! I can see why you are drawn to it. Looks like a fun one to make too. :-) Can't wait to see yours.
