Magpie’s early exposure to quilting and blogiversary

April 27, 2012 by Scarlett Burroughs

Ann of Magpie Quilts celebrated her one year blogiversary today by talking about the things that inspired her to pick up a quilting needle. She also shares her earliest exposure to quilting – a book her librarian in elementary school recommended to her called Calico Bush by Rachel Field.

Ann invites readers to leave a comment on her blog post telling of their earliest exposure to quilting. Go HERE to celebrate with her.

    It was my pleasure Ann! Love your discussion on quilting influences and inspiration. I too made my first quilt for my daughter (only child). I enjoy our quilting stories as much as the quilts. Warmly…Scarlett
