when your looking for inspiration its always great to hear from a friend that says go look in this book and take out your fabric line you have been saving to make a quilt for yourself! OH MY! Perfect inspirational quilt don't you agree????
Here you go Calico and Chintz Antique quilts from the collection of Patricia S. Smith, one of my favorite books btw!, and oh this fabric line I just love. Collection for a cause, comfort line. Now I need to find a couple yards of that blue and brown print on the right.
Thanks Betsy for the inspiration, as always. Check out her pictures here.....AP and Q

Oh, I've been hoarding a 6 yard piece of that gorgeous brown and coral(y)floral print too. I'm still waiting for the right project. Yours looks like the perfect one! I won't copy though, promise! I'll keep looking for my perfect idea.
Thank for the links, you always know where the good stuff is!

That is a wonderful fabric line--looks perfect for the pictured quilt. I smiled at the post-it notes sticking out from the top of the book. That looks like so many of my favorite books. Sometimes I look back at one I marked and wonder, "What was I thinking?"
Thanks for linking us up to some great stuff!
Having friends share inspiration is wonderful. Your quilt will be amazing.
It is so exciting to start a new project and the fabric is beautiful!!
That's a very exciting new project and good luck finding the blue. I don't recognize it. Thanks for the links to the red and green quilts. Those always get my quilting juices flowing - especially that 4-block one.
Thanks for sharign and Inspiring us, Too!
This is becoming a beautiful project.

Can't wait to see your finished top!
What a great new project, I lovce the big chintzy look. Great links as usual, I've had a great look around.
Thanks for the links! Love, love, love Betsy's book! Made one of her patterns. I so love antique quilts. I've been bouncing back and forth from your blog to the links. BTW, did you know that you can tick the bottom of the pop up link box so that when you click on the link it opens a separate window as opposed to taking you away from where you are? I learned that today myself! ;o) Oh, and I did finally get a change to blog about that doll quilt I had mentioned to you a while back. The one with the cut outs for a doll post bed. What a beauty! Off to continue catching up!
Lovely, likes me a lot everything
