It is amazing to see the enthusiasm that Okan Arts' giveaway of Unconventional & Unexpected has generated! Thank you, all, for your kind comments. And thank you to Patricia Belyea for featuring U&U. You have until September 30 to enter. Just leave a comment with your thoughts on U&U to enter.
Here are some favorites:
“All of Roderick’s books are among my keepers, and they are old friends of mine.”
“A remarkable discovery that Roderick helped us see.”
“For the intrepid quilter this book makes the heart sing. Sumptous color and fabric and design that hums, nearly buzzes with life.”
“An amazing example of inspired collecting.”
“Quilts are about the people who made them and who used them, their lives, their history. To someone who tries to find a bit of magic in everything, a book about ‘quirky’ quilts sounds absolutely fascinating.”
“A wonderful collection of eye candy!”
You might remember that I wrote a guest blog recently for Okan Arts. Read it here.

Patricia Belyea asked me to write a guest post for Okan Arts. How could I say no? I am so excited to share about my story as a quilt collector, traveling for those "ah ha" moments to find the quirky quilts that I love. Over time I learned that "collectors can break their own rules."
