i've been published in a magazine!

i've been waiting for this day for what feels like forrrreeevvver...

and it's finally here!!

my quilt... my crazy idea that started out half the size... with no borders... & really came from the thought of a baseball diamond... came to life... at a HUGE 96x96 & now is in print!

pinch me. really.

fabric = Nature's Notebook by April Cornell for Moda Fabrics

i designed this quilt back in september & now it's in the march/april issue of quiltmaker magazine! ...which is gonna be hitting your mailbox & newsstands soon!!

this quilt was made in record time.

i designed it with prints & wovens... unaware that the wovens weren't in production yet... eek!

luckily carolyn @ quiltmaker pushed my deadline back a week.

lissa & carolyn @ moda shipped the fabric overnight as soon as it came in.

i worked for 2 days straight to finish piecing it.

& then raced over to have kim pope quilt it in a day.

& had one morning left to bind it.

and it was off!

this was one of the few photos i got of it before i had to ship it...

{see the fall leaves}

now it's back home with me!

{i've been waiting to talk about this september! it was hard but i only blogged about it twice. here & here}

as you know i usually quilt my own work.

but time restraints... and size led me to call in the pros.

kim quilted this in a day with less than a week's notice!

thank you again!!

sometimes i still can't believe this is real.

seriously.
