Gitte's Atlantic Avenue

The second best part of my business partner / Mom being a longarm quilter, is that she gets Sassafras Lane quilts in her queue from time to time! (The best part being I have my own personal longarm quilter =] ) She recently sent me photos of this gorgeous Atlantic Avenue quilt made by the talented Gitte Hopkins.

Mini Mania - Modern Traditional Challenge

I have only been slightly obsessed with mini quilts this past year... so when Timeless Treasures and Dear Stella announced their Modern Traditional Mini Quilt Challenge, I jumped at the opportunity to make something fun! I made thirty-six 3" assorted churndash blocks and arranged them in color order diagonally across the quilt with the dark backgrounded blocks off-center. I have been wanting to make little mini churndash blocks for awhile, so this was the perfect time!
