Welcome to Calico Junction!! This is a place for life to happen and also for quilting to happen!!

Grab a cup of coffee and come sit on the porch with me and we can talk quilts. I would love to see what you are working on and I will share my quilts with you as well. 

My goal this year is to actually complete the quilts that I have either just started or blocks and sections of quilts that have been sitting around forever. Some will be for sale, for charity and some just for me and my family!

I will have patterns to share and for you to purchase as I sort through my studios and also some fabric. Over the years I have accumulated lots of patterns that I will never use or try. I also have lots of magazine's that need to find a new home. I will be posting those here too and will happily send them to their new owners. 


To get things started I will share this quilt today. It's a log cabin design that I made for my daughter. She picked out the fabrics and she is in love with this. I have to admit that I really like the way this came out. I had my doubts at first because black and white aren't my normal color palette that I work from but once it was all done and on the bed!!! WOW!!!

So please share what you are working on. This is the first blog so there will be changes coming each time you check back until I get this exactly how I want it so please be patient.

    1. That sounds like fun! I have a repair I need to do on a binding from a well loved quilt. Maybe I will tackle that this weekend. Post pictures of the curtains. I would love to see them!
