Yep, I was traveling yesterday.  A delayed flight and late arrival didn’t get me home until 2am.  That has nothing to do with quilting but my excuse and I’m sticking to it.  Being summertime with stinkin’ hot weather is some states and mild cool nights in others…where are you and are you quilting?  Or do you take a break?  I’m getting ready to work on new patterns!!  Which brings up another question…what excites you about a pattern?  Design? Color? Shapes? Fabrics?  I would love to know your favorite color combinations.  Please comment (on any of the questions in this post) and I’ll put you in a drawing for my latest BTN pattern, “R-W-B Boise”.  Simple blocks makes this pattern go together easily.  Shown below is two color combinations I’ve made.

“Sea Glass”. D.W.
