Congratulations to Lisa Mikel - you're the winner of the KT tan precuts this week. Please send shipping info to lynne@ktquilts.com. and watch for another KT giveaway below!

KT Show 'n Tell

Thanks to everyone who's been sending in pictures of quilts and projects using KT fabrics. How fun to see what you're all working on! I love the variety and level of skill shown by all the quilters here. It's as good as show 'n tell at a guild meeting.

Jenny Pettinger's My Favorite Sewing Bag - cotton & wool by
KTQ & Starry Pines Designs (above & below). Great job on the blanketstitching!


Susan Virdon shared these 2 beauties - Birth of a Sampler (above) and Easy Street (below).
Perfectly pieced and wonderful fabric choices.


Here's Jo Jacobi with her almost-finished Stitches on the Oregon Trail quilt. This is the 3rd in the Quilter's Journal
series of quilts/stories from just about 14 years ago, but who's counting???

    I'm of the opinion that ANY quilt pattern is improved by using KT fabrics!! I'm currently making a Martha Washington's Flower Garden from my KT stash. ;-)

    I like the Sweet as Honey quilt as it appears to show a greater definition of the hexagon shapes--I know, more cutting, but would be worth it!
