Gale, Ky quilter said...

Kathie, You are one of the first blogs I ever followed and I am never disappointed. Scrappy quilts are my favorite and yours are always beautiful! I am inspired by all that you do! And, yes, I would love this magazine! I tried getting the calender with your tumblers quilt on the cover a few years back and never found it however I started a scrappy tumbler and since I piece and quilt by hand it takes me quite a while and the fact that I have several WIPS going on at one time doesn't help either but there is so much beautiful fabric out there (and in my house) I gotta have a few going at once. Love your quilts!

I love scrappy quilts and can't wait to make more of them!

Michele said...

thanks Kathie for the chance to win this magazine. I agree with you, the more fabrics in a quilt, the better it is. I love the sparkle of a scrap quilt. It's very difficult for me now to make a quilt using just 3-5 fabrics. Gotta scrap it up! Michele G
