The Story Behind the Quilt - B. Annie Quilt Pattern Book

Pin It

Last year the house in Nebraska had sold, the moving van was gone and we headed for a weekend away before our flight to Florida. I was exhausted and slept most of the first afternoon and night. 

But, at breakfast in the dining room the next morning, the floor was tile, a bear paw pattern. My brain was on over driver and I spent a great afternoon playing with the pattern on my old laptop, so old the only thing on it is the quilt pattern program, so here's my quilt and pattern for you.  It's only Available HERE

Goodwill Bookstore Florida, a little worn but wonderful !

Pin It
I'm talking about the book and Me, both a little worn !

I love old quilt books and this one does not disappoint. It's from 1935,  There is a wonderful Goodwill book store here, it is all set up as a library and the books are priced from 1.99 and then as this one 5.99. Way cool. (Some more too!)

We stopped with the Grands when they were here, so stopped back and took some time yesterday.

The picture pages are called plates and I think it is a really big deal to have them in a quilt book.  The story is a general account of quilting.

I always keep my eyes open for quilt books, I love them any age, but really look for good condition.

I'm sleeping unbelievable here and last night I slept in my glasses,  and I broke them, so the project today is to find some where to get them fixed.

Quilt Top All Together, Applique Quilt in Red and Green

Pin It
Hope you are not tired of hearing about this quilt, but I had to put it on a bed. And take pictures. I took over 25..... Anyone for NUTS. The only way to explain it, as if it's a 4 carat diamond ring. Nuts...I know, but to me that's what is it.
This Wedding quilt has been a VERY long time coming. I'm sooooo.... pleased.
So, I'm on to get it put together, batting and backing. Take it to the show in October and then the HAND quilting is going to be my winter project. I'd also like to paint the kitchen cabinets, clean out everyone's things from our basement, the boy's, my mom's, husband's had to purchases. Get the Little Quilt Ladies to the printer and finish up book 13....

Center Together - Red, Green and White Quilt Blocks, Book Eight of The Quilt Ladies Book Collection

Pin It
Have the center of the quilt together. And have to say, "I love it".
It is getting bigger and bigger. This one is a process, it will be hand quilted, by me and I have not idea how long that will take.
But, first I'm getting is all together.

Putting All Together - Red, Green and White Quilt Blocks

Book 8 of the Quilt Ladies
A Wedding.....  bethanndoing.com
All Quilt Ladies Books on Kindle - 
NOW all The Quilt Ladies Books are in ONE Book - HERE

The writing of book 8 was so much fun for me. I planned a wedding and had to answer, ask or tell anyone, why or what I wanted. From the simpleness of the day, to the family and friends. It is what I hope my day was about, many years ago.

At the time of book 8's writing, we lived in Windom, Minnesota. A VERY long way from home and I had some very long days and even longer nights. Son #2 was in high school, working, sports and always busy,
Husband had his first retail store and worked 24/7.

And I wrote, the wedding was on.....
I wrote, ate and dreamed of nothing but a wedding, for months and months.
Then came the quilt.
It was overwhelming, everything I've always wanted in a quilt.
This one was designed and done for me, no one else, just me.

There are 12 blocks, pieced on a sewing machine and hand appliqued with
vines and leaves.
