Ta Dah!: Pineapple Blossom baby quilt

The talent behind Suture for a Living completed this lovely baby quilt using patriotic colors red, white, and blue, also perfect for the American 4th of July celebrations today. She used Bonnie Hunter’s Pineapple Blossom block. You can get the tutorial for making the block on Quiltville’s sidebar (Bonnie has tons of tutes but she’s smart, she has them in alphabetical order). Visit Suture for a Living blog post here.

I recently treated myself to “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” by Jennifer Chiaverini for the upcoming holiday season. As a fan of the Elm Creek Quilts series, I couldn’t resist diving into this heartwarming tale of Christmas traditions and family legacies.

The anticipation of exploring the holiday festivities at Elm Creek Manor is palpable, especially with Sylvia Bergstrom Compson, the Master Quilter, at the helm. Sarah McClure’s eagerness to bring Christmas cheer to the manor adds an extra layer of excitement as she uncovers a curious Christmas quilt with a rich history spanning generations.

As I eagerly await immersing myself in this delightful narrative, I’m already captivated by the promise of cherished memories, family bonds, and the timeless traditions that have endured through the years. With each page promising glimpses into the past and the present, I’m bracing myself for a heartwarming journey filled with love, hope, and the spirit of giving.

Being a part of the Elm Creek Quilts series has been a joyous experience, and I can’t wait to unwrap the magic of “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” this holiday season. So, no spoilers, please—let the enchanting tale unfold as I cozy up with this beloved series once again.
