<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">GOOD MORNING</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">NEW FABRIC COLLECTION - ARRIVING SOON !!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This new collection is inspired by the works of Gene Stratton Porter, an environmentalist, naturalist, nature lover & photographer from the 1800's who was indeed ahead of her time. Gene early recognized the importance of the preservation of the wild lands & beautiful wildlife of our country.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In this grouping you see light, wispy wildflowers waving in the wind, subtle greens, earthy browns, blacks & intricately detailed twirling vines, all reminiscent of the beautiful wildlife she so valiantly fought to conserve. Added are shades of pinks & neutrals to enhance our quilt projects.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This collection is delivering to shops in the US soon!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While Sue was sewing the LeMoyne Stars last month with the French Paisley Collection, I was still playing with the Temperance Blues & added a dark cheddar to the fabric mix. Using a set of Cindy Blackberg's stamps for the sunburst templates, it really went fast . . . another small quilt! I'm planning to do a little hand quilting on this one; always nice to have a quilting project in a hoop!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love it! Hope you do, too! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Last month I offered a fat-eighth bundle of the French Paisley grouping to a follower who made a comment and that bundle will go to Comment #3 from Regina. If you would email your mailing address to me at ecook@yourstarnet.net, I will get your bundle into the mail as soon as possible. Congratulations, Regina!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today let's have lots more follower comments about my little sunburst quilt and I will pick a number & send a fat-eighth bundle of the Blue Temperance grouping to them. Sorry, no international winners because of postage, but I still love to read your thoughts & comments. Let's have more comments this month and I'll pick 2 winners!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Have a wonderful Easter and don't forget to leave a comment, if you are a follower within the US!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My dear quilting friend Sue Bish (wanting to get her hands on some of these) quickly offered to hand piece some little 4" LeMoyne Stars & sent them to me - 12 within the week (actually there were 13 - and she had to battle the wind & snow to get them to the post office)! She did a spectacular job fussy cutting the fabrics in unique ways adding so much creativity to the stars! </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Such a help that was! Aren't they sweet! Forever in your debt, Sue!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Using the brown/red/blue large paisley for alternate blocks, I had quick fun putting together this sweet little quilt. Doesn't it look like a little quilt right out of the 1800's!</span></div>

I learned to use my automatic needle threader this morning! I cannot tell you how many times I have looked at the threader on my machine & said to myself "I can do this!" only to fail & go back to my sewing! How depressing & such a hit to my intelligence!</span><div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, this morning I was reading blogs & came across the blog of Patchwork Plus which shows wonderful pictures of the exact procedure to be successful at this endeavor! What I discovered, thanks to <a href="https://patchworkplus-quilting.com/">Patchwork Plus</a>, was that my threader was not coming far enough to the front to actually put the thread through the hole of the needle, so there was no way that I could be successful. Well, it works now & I am tickled about it! What a wonderful way to begin the year!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thank you, thank you, thank you, Patchwork Plus, & here is the link for those of you who may still be fighting this technique!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
named for the Temperance Movement in U.S. history, was a social movement against the consumption of alcoholic beverages. It began as early as the American Revolution in Connecticut, Virginia and New York. People preached - and pledged - abstinence of alcohol throughout Europe and America for many reasons.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
History shows that by the early 1800's, the average American over 15 years of age drank nearly seven gallons of alcohol a year (three times as much as we drink today)!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Alcohol abuse, primarily by men, wreaked daily havoc in families as women, with few legal rights, and many children to raise, were totally dependent on their husbands for support.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With the formation of the American Temperance Society early in 1830, the movement grew quickly throughout the states. Maine, which was the first state to adopt actual temperance laws and guidelines, served as a model for other states.</div>

Temperance fountains were built in public places to provide safe drinking water in hopes of keeping people out of the saloons and away from consuming alcohol. Concerns over alcohol consumption also gave way to other important social issues such as slavery, ill treatment of marginalized people, and in much later years, women's rights.</div>

The blues are represented from the light hues all the way to the very dark, rich indigo. T is for Temperance Quilt has been designed for this collection. Notice the upside-down T's on two corners of the quilt!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is simply gorgeous! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She found the pattern in the book "Mariner's Compass Quilts" by Judy Mathieson!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The pattern in the book is 20" in diameter but by enlarging it 118% as the pattern directs, she was able to sew a 30" diameter tree skirt! The collection's stripe makes a perfect bias binding for the Mariner's Compass circled by flying geese! It is just awesome!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks again, Holly, for sharing it with us at Thursday Girls last week! And for finding such a great use for my newest collection! Time to get on those holiday projects, girls!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have always believed I would sew a Mariner's Compass quilt someday - another on my bucket list of quilts to make! I'm sure none of you have a list like that!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrJVvQTSMFkOmLkE2ZRySS_zj2weKP10jiCYMOztsLkNgwwYXH_vE4ZJHrBvi4TFEHuVPFYEfnBmYd7Tic2n3ya97uTRmgxipi9HydKaiejvnZFTKZcenLwgxczyklbXDiIAmlEliPciE/s1600/Best.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="996" data-original-width="974" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrJVvQTSMFkOmLkE2ZRySS_zj2weKP10jiCYMOztsLkNgwwYXH_vE4ZJHrBvi4TFEHuVPFYEfnBmYd7Tic2n3ya97uTRmgxipi9HydKaiejvnZFTKZcenLwgxczyklbXDiIAmlEliPciE/s320/Best.JPG" width="312" /></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyway, when I learned of a new tool for this block, I went to work on it again quite a while ago. With the Robin Ruth ruler & method for a strip pieced compass, I was able to make a pretty good first block from some of my Flying Geese collection.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So that is as far as I got that day & I have been looking at it on the wall ever since. Then I received some of the vintage fabrics from the Star of Bethlehem (1860 - 1880) & Rising Sun Medallion (1840 - 1860) collections by Washington Street Studio/P & B & my interest piqued again. Thus - the borders appeared.</span><br />
<br />

Although it is remaining a work-in-progress at this time, I'm having lots of fun with it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">These star blocks may find a home on this quilt eventually - who knows! For now I'm just happy to enjoy it on the design wall again!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hope you are all having a divine week!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With spring just now showing her lovely face in Iowa, I'm really not quite ready to think about Christmas again! But the Christmas Remembered collection is selling well & I have to remind you of it, especially if you will be heading to quilt market next week.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You can see the collection at the P & B/Washington Street Studio booth <b>#</b>420. And if you are not attending market go to <a href="http://www.pbtex.com/christmas-remembered/">the P & B website</a> & view it there! Or see it now on the opening page of <a href="http://www.clotheslinequilts.com/">my Clothesline Quilts site</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Do you love toile as much as I do! I use them in the quilts & then again for the backing & pillow cases, dust ruffles & pillows. Do a whole room with them for such a beautiful traditional vintage look in your home!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFZ_amwUOvC-_TovMSax-q8F5k8z0RXw1TCHmglhtwxWw-xwtB2WTjUIZFXFesP7NOCJs0oe89OLWDh7dSClYI35KBN_GkZd2g6WPKGHQcbzRnKVuqUVSdxwm_X1sd1xCLDzqcKs4e30c/s1600/26648+RED1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFZ_amwUOvC-_TovMSax-q8F5k8z0RXw1TCHmglhtwxWw-xwtB2WTjUIZFXFesP7NOCJs0oe89OLWDh7dSClYI35KBN_GkZd2g6WPKGHQcbzRnKVuqUVSdxwm_X1sd1xCLDzqcKs4e30c/s200/26648+RED1.jpg" width="199" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The prints are mostly available in green, black, creams & tans, in addition to red, of course!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Clothesline Quilts patterns will be finalized as soon as the fabric arrives; I want to actually sew the quilts with these fabrics before they are published. The Christmas Baskets quilt is 70" x 87" with 9" blocks. And the Almost Amish Baskets quilt is smaller and features two sizes -19" square with 6" blocks and 27" square with 9" blocks. Both sizes are in one pattern.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Shops & customers are welcome to keep in touch with me at 712-362-3022 about availability of patterns. Or get on my list and I will automatically send them to you as soon as they are printed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sara Morgan's Vintage Solids are luscious & any time I want the look of a solid, but not totally solid, I look to the vintage solids. They have what I call a mottled or blotchy look; looking like they've been tea dyed like we did so many years ago.</span><div>

Toiles can add so much to a room's decor; I especially love them in bedrooms & dining rooms. Cut them up into a quilt, put them on the quilt back, and add them as the dust ruffle; their uses are endless for the entire room's look!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have had so much fun making this quilt by <a href="http://www.thewoolenneedle.com/">The Woolen Needle</a> gals from Williamsburg, Iowa! These gals designed this quilt for my fabric line Flying Geese by <a href="http://www.washingtonstreetstudio.com/">Washington Street Studio</a> ! I visited their booth at the Des Moines AQS Show a couple weeks ago & thoroughly enjoyed renewing our friendship.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Simply love this pattern & just had to make it! You know how it goes sometimes you see a quilt & you just have to drop everything & do it. That is how I felt about this quilt & it was quick & easy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Candy at <a href="http://www.homespunquiltshop.com/">Homespun Quilt Shop</a> has fabric paks available right now! </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Woolen Needle gals' applique is all done with wools, but mine is cotton flannels; Candy's kits are also done with the flannels exactly like this quilt. So get them now while selection is good!

Off to Salt Lake City we go this year! I sure hope that the weather is better out there than it is in Iowa. Rain, rain, rain, but worse than that, it is cold here! The weatherman is even talking freezing temperatures for tonight! Yikes! Have to get out the old blankets & cover as much as possible, especially the rhubarb! A freeze will surely ruin the rhubarb for the season; what a shame that would be!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Table Cozee V has two designs, as all the Table Cozee patterns do. It's nice that shops can sew two samples & package two different fabric kits from the same pattern! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Jody Sanders, editor of Quilts and More, surprised me with a copy of her Winter, 2015 magazine showing how the Flying Geese fabric collection was used in this sweet little quilt. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Again, I am most surprised by the way different people design with each fabric & the way each one puts fabrics together. Every one of us works with a different eye for the fabrics! I am always amazed by the discoveries that come from our market days together - shop owners, publishers, pattern designers, fabric designers, notions designers, & for sure, old friends in the industry.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This quilt was designed & sewed by Jan Ragaller, a dear friend from my quilt shop owner days. I won't say how long ago that has been! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But it was very endearing to see what her eye had imagined for my fabrics. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks so much, Jan!</span>Evonne Cook - The Clothesline Quilterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15670572256117321781noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-177941841035540978.post-91071315000364832712016-01-20T09:00:00.000-06:002016-01-20T09:00:21.621-06:00Must-Have Reproductions!<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bernie Gee surprised me with a lovely little quilt that uses the Friendship Ring fabrics & the templates! Isn't it sweet! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She enlarged the size of the templates one at a time on her printer & then hand pieced them together, so the quilt measures 23" square instead of the normal size of the template block which is 12"! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">How ingenious of you, Bernie! </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One extra-large block makes a super wall hanging size block!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks so much, Bernie! I appreciate you & your friendship! This is the gal who began our Thursday Girls quilting group! Again, how ingenious! We all look forward to Thursdays now because of you, Bernie!</span>Evonne Cook - The Clothesline Quilterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15670572256117321781noreply@blogger.com0
