Cute birdie

Lately I've been very attracted to all the birds that have become so popular. I found the pattern for this one on Pinterest. Darned if I can't find it to link to now. 

Clare O'Donohue The Double Wedding Ring

I was recently asked to do a couple of book reviews. Since I love to read I was excited to read a book from an Author I hadn't been familiar with before. This is from the Someday Quilts Mystery series by Clare O'Donohue. The Double Wedding Ring is the title. This was a combination of mystery and quilting and I loved it. I was captured right away by the characters and mystery. It is set in upstate New York and it had the charm of quilting traditions, family, romance and suspense. Definitely a great read. One of the things I really enjoyed was not actually figuring out the mystery before the end of the book. Generally half way through I've figured it out and this one was a challenge. I recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery.

Free E book

I recently received a free e-book from McCall's quilting. It is called Modern Quilt Patterns. Its got some fun looking projects in it. I really would like to make the Rainbow Ribbon table quilt. Pastels would be great for this pattern as well as the colorway in the book. You can also get a free copy if you follow this link. Have fun!

Here is my finished Fiesta top. I love how it turned out. Pattern was a block of the month by fatcatpaterns.com
