I ♥ Denyse

Denyse Schmidt's new book Modern Quilts Traditional Inspiration came today.  On the hubs' birthday.  Shhhhh...don't tell him!  Anyway, I think Denyse is a genius, so I'm going to be trying, over the next year to make every pattern in her book.  Yes, even you broderie perse.  Yeah, that one may come last.  Not feeling too psyched about her.  But as I was saying.  Every. Pattern.  Gulp.  It's:


And on the subject of DS, did you see that she has another line coming out at Joann's?  It's called Meadowlark and it looks like it would play really nicely with Aunt Edna.  Have I mentioned how much it stinks not being able to buy this stuff in Canada?  Thank zombies there's etsy.

  2. It's too, too sad that you can't buy DS fabric in Canada. I can feel your pain! Thanks for the update about her new Meadowlark line. It has an interesting look to it. Very soft. I think my next stop will be Amazon to get her new book. Your quilting is lovely.

  8. Great idea! Sounds like a wonderful project. Any idea when the new line comes out? I love the prints. And that is pretty lame that Canada doesn't get them...
