Don't those Joann coupons just burn a hole in your pocket?  Seems almost like you 
have to use the darned things and it is so hard to find something not on sale already.  A couple of days before I went to Kansas City I found this book -

 and it is absolutely beautiful.  The patterns are so very pretty and the quilt artist used batiks and regular fabrics in her blocks.  I think they are splendid. 

Even though I have done many different types of blocks in the many years I have been quilting and liked all of them, I have never found anything I love more than applique.  

 This quilt, although there is only one block of applique, is absolutely a stunner.  The colors just scream out at me - and what a lovely bit of photography with the stones and the green hydrangeas.   It's a mystery to me how I will ever get all the quilts made that are in my head -maybe I will have a senior moment and forget about them!!  Just joshing!
