It’s December! For our feature this month, I have three darling booklets from the American Quilter’s Society “Love to Quilt” series. Thank you, AQS!
Wildflower Appliqué & Embroidery
by Bea Oglesby
The Quilter’s Veggie Garden
by Bea Oglesby
Appliqué Garden
by Eula Mae Long
These 30-page booklets each feature a variety of mix-and-match designs that can be stitched using your favorite method, or, follow the author’s tips. Very cool!
From Birdfoot Violets to Baskets of Clematis to Kohlrabi and Peppers, if it grows from the earth you just might find it here!
If you’d like to enter the drawing to win these three booklets, please leave a comment here on the post before 7:00 p.m. California time on Thursday, December 5.
Open to U.S. and Canada mailing addresses only (and remember that replies to an email feed do not enter the drawing).
Best of luck to you!
