Monday Morning Design Wall 3/25/2013

 Happy Monday!  Running a bit late today as I was unable to get my pictures uploaded.  I did what I could and now I will just move on!  I spent the weekend in Chicago, well, more specifically, Glenview Illinois, just north of Chicago.  My family was celebrating my brothers 50th birthday, Happy Birthday Doug!!  I did hit a quilt shop and found a fantastic bead shop in the next town.  I also broke into my grandmothers cedar chest, using a hair pin and found the most beautiful linens, which she hand embroidered in the 1920's to the 1950's I would guess.  Wow, I cannot wait to work on a whole cloth quilt using the beautiful linens.  Check out Judy's blog and see the rest of the design walls!!

  4. Was not familiar with quilted linens until I took Cindy Needham's class. What a marvelous find you made. Look forward to seeing what you do with them.
