“Betsy’s ”Love Letters” Quilt
It’s another beautiful day here today.
And for me, it is cleaning/laundry day. But when that is done, AC doggie and I will definitely get out into the woods. And, there will be late afternoon sewing. There are only 10 more blocks to make for the Churn Dash quilt on the design wall.
When Betsy Maislen was here some weeks back, a journey made to pick up a used sewing machine she purchased from a quilty friend here. She spent a few days with me. And there was some sewing, of course, as she tried out her new machine and began to get familar with it.
While she was here, my Simply Moderne magazine, No 28, arrived.
The cover showed a quilt designed by Wendy Sheppard and Darlene Szabo, ”Love Letters.”
Betsy fell in love with this quilt.

When she went home, she made it—and pretty quickly too.
Here’s Betsy’s ”Love Letters” quilt.

Betsy did an AWESOME job.
The quilt is meant to be a gift, so someone is going to be happy.
She is still in love with her new-to-her sewing machine.
*You can order the pattern if you like it from Simply Moderne magazine.

Such a fun pattern! The hearts that overlap the rows are genius.
