I know, I know...I have posted about this book
or it's author
or a project from it
time and time again...
I can't help myself.
I love this book.
I adore the sheer beauty of the simple fabric
and the simple thread.
The brilliance of the way that the two are joined together.
It's just beautiful.
I posted a while back that I was making a project from the book.
And I did -
I finished it just in time to wear to the Asheville Quilt Show!
I made the Reverse-Applique Swing Skirt from the pattern in the book.
It was a BIG hit!
I'll post a few pictures of the skirt -sans Carol- for the moment.
Maybe said skirt + Carol photo will come later...

ok--but I want to see Carol in the skirt!!!
By the way--I know it is fabulous!!
would you believe that i was at books-a-million today and was thumbing through this very book?!! i totally agree with you....it's fabulous....and so is your new skirt!! :)
i am so intrigued by this method of sewing. it looks like there are 2 layers of cloth and you cut holes in one and then stitch around the holes. i'm off to find what i can on this on the web. i'm looking forward to seeing your skirt!!!!
It came out so well. Judy Simmons posted about it on her blog.
beautiful skirt!
I LOVE your stitching! I'm so glad I got to see the skirt in progress. You MUST wear it to the Believe Retreat :)
