Every Quilt Has a Story

The Ladies

The Ladies Quilt Pattern started early on in my quilt designing. I love sampler quilts, I draw and draw quilt blocks. Some are classic ones and some are the ones I designed.

When I was designing and planning this quilt, I was home day after day. I would spend entire days piecing quilt blocks. Kind of my heaven and there are 68 quilt blocks in this quilt book/pattern. Husband worked twelve-hour days, six days a week. And I seemed to be able to be content and happy in my world of quilt blocks.

The thing that took The Ladies to the next level was the trip to the fabric shop. I was always hoping to own a shop,(dream) any way, I knew the blue fabric was right when I saw it. Purchasing fabric is kind of a sport to me and I do it ALL the time. Knowing the blue was going to be the base and pop color of the quilt I purchased about 5 yards. Way more than would be needed. But…more is more. The additional colors, pink, green and the blue pattern were from my scrap closet that I had on hand. With this quilt I figured out each blocks colors as I pieced it, but not each quilt block as it would be put together into the quilt. And/or what quilt block would be placed next to each other. See one of The Ladies, quilt patterns.

The Ladies quilt blocks were featured on my site and after completing them all, the quilt pattern was finished added to Etsy as a PDF and NOW in Amazon as a printed book and eBook.

Of course, The Ladies, are really my Quilt Ladies and me.

Book Eight of The Quilt Ladies Collection

Quilt Patterns and Stories

The writing of book 8 was so much fun for me. I planned a wedding and did not 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. Back then I sold individual copies of each story and quilt pattern. But things they have changed, the complete collection is available only on kindle. The book is over 400 pages long, 15 complete quilt patterns, and 12 quilt stories.

The Quilt Ladies NOW ONLY Available !

The Quilt Ladies Book Collection ONLY on Kindle and NOOK

At the time of book 8’s writing, we lived in Windom, Minnesota. A VERY long way from home and I had some 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 made for me, no one else, just ME!

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

The Quilt Ladies Book

I’ve set myself a goal, clean out quilt files and save quilt pictures in the RIGHT File with the RIGHT Name on it…???…!!! It’s been a bit impossible, because I see something and I go down a rabbit hole, out comes draft paper, my camera, color pencils and more ideas.

But, look what I did find. The original art work, I did for The Quilt Ladies Book. This is the way The Quilt Ladies looked when I first had them printed and sold as single books. Cover designs done by Rita, here is her NOW

Printing costs going through the ROOF ! and digital being the thing, I moved them. (If you purchased one of the original sets or single books, THANK YOU, you make a dream come true for me.)
