A Floral Saturday Afternoon Quilt from the Past

A Floral Saturday Afternoon Quilt from the Past As my grandma prepared and moved from her home to a care center she meticulously gave away and donated the majority of her possessions. In fact, you couldn't visit her without leaving with a load of books, pictures, kitchen items, etc. But there were a few things that stayed in the house longer than others and this quilt was one of them.

Silver King PDF Quilt Pattern

Silver King PDF Quilt Pattern Today we are excited to release our first pattern of 2023 and it is our Silver King PDF Quilt Pattern! The pattern is based on a traditional King's Court Quilt Block but was given it's name from where this quilt was photographed...just outside an old mine...the Silver King Mine. I'd been working on this pattern for quite some time...sewn up the blocks over and over...and then, last fall I brought one of the quilts with me on an anniversary weekend ... View the Post
