Thank you to Nifty Quilts for your beautiful blog post this morning. It's exciting to hear about how so many quiltmakers have been inspired by quilts in Unconventional & Unexpected to make one based on a certain quilt or to just be "more free and unrestricted" with their own quilts. The quilt Nifty Quilts is making is inspired from page 56.
“There’s a tiny sliver of red and white. How’d that get in there?
Did I really put a scrap of bark cloth in this? I like it!
Now I really don’t care how the quilt looks overall.
It’s the stories, the connections to sweet friends,
the memories of the design process that matter.
I’m sure we’ve all experienced this.
It’s one of the greatest joys of quilt-making—
working closely with our fabrics and remembering the stories behind them.”
She writes about her process so poetically.
