Once Upon A Time…

May 3, 2010 in Books by emily | 27 comments

A very daring lady asked me to write a book.

So I did.

Announcing…

remixcover

See the author name?  Eek!  That’s me!  By golly I really did write a book.  I should really send this to my high school English teacher.

Perhaps my Geometry teacher too.

And my Physics teacher who was very unhappy that I went to a froufy liberal arts college instead of going into some dorky Physics-related field (I just then went and married a Physics dork instead ;)   Love ya dear!)

So the details of my most fabulous first book — Quilt Remix — with the most fabulous C&T Publishing:

Play the Flip Side of Yesterday’s Hits!

  • 10 projects feature traditional quilt patterns with a surprising contemporary twist
  • Use basic piecing and appliqué techniques
  • Organized into beginner, intermediate, and advanced sections

Here’s music for your ears!  New settings and fresh fabric combinations for all your favorites — Log Cabin, Nine-Patch, Irish Chain, Flying Geese, Pinwheel, and more,  You’ll love these quilt designs made with fresh, fun fabrics for any home.

Coming to a store near you in November 2010.

Yippee!

    I just saw Jaybird’s link to your site and as I saw glimpses of your quilts I got excited. Because traditional patterns made new is EXACTLY what I like to do. Another book is going on my wishlist!! :)
