“I bought this fabric 20 years ago with a friend that said “I’ll buy it if you don’t!” Recently I have been going through my old fabrics, and I still love the inspiration floral fabric. Most of the coordinating fabric I had put together years ago and it still looks awesome. This fabric and this pattern really made me feel like this was a vintage looking quilt. And I may have to hide it from my friend….”

“I put together these fabrics, and even picked the pattern, over 10 years ago. It sat on the shelf that long. I have been trying to alternate between old and new projects to use some of the beautiful old fabrics I bought. The back on this quilt is brushed denim, which makes if feel more substantial and cozy! The original pattern had appliqué borders but I thought it looked too busy. The fall colors and pattern make it perfect for the men in your life.”

“I have done other Beyond the Reef patterns and always liked how they turned out. All the fabric was from my stash with the circle backing fabric the inspiration for the colors. I wanted to do the straight line quilting so did a grid pattern.”

“I was shopping at Mary’s Quilt Market and saw these pre-cut 10” squares and thought my Mom would like them. She didn’t! I sewed them into this simple quilt and then she loved them, so much that she wanted her quilt in the show so everyone could see it. Clem quilted a little heart with “Mom” in it in the border.”
