Guess what was in my mail box?? Whoowhoo!
Doesn’t it freak you out when it is still 2013 –abeit the last of it—and you are get a magazine for Jan/FEB 2014? Is it Valentine’s Day already?!
There are such GREAT quilts in this issue –I’m already in love with the basket quilt on the cover.
That soft blue sashing in a streak of lightning setting? Scrumptious!
I spent some time thumbing through all of the pages last night, and I know you are going to love this issue.
Take a peek at what you’ll find inside:
Judy Laquidara’s Oh, Sew Blue! Really caught my eye!
I have always loved Blue and White quilts!
And Miss Judy has an eye for design that inspires me to look at things differently ---this is just WOW!
But you’ll also find my Addicted to Scraps column!
This issue I am featuring a fun block called Garlic Knots after the yummies served in Italian restaurants, oozing with garlic and dripping with butter..MMmmm! These cuties, however, will not leave you with a bad taste in your mouth the next morning! LOL!
Check out the layout that the Quiltmaker peeps have suggested:
Learn more by visiting the Garlic Knots page on Quiltmaker.com HERE
Did you know you can see ALL of the blocks from my Addicted to Scraps columns by clicking the Addicted to Scraps tab at the top of the blog? Check it out!
Let’s have a Give-Away!
I’m going to draw for one winner! Leave me a comment in the comments section below!
I’ll draw for the winner on Sunday Evening while I’m in Germany!
The magazine will be mailed to the lucky winner when I return home.

Be safe in your travels.
I have a digital subscription to Quiltmaker. You know WHY I subscribed??? Because I wanted to read your column each month!! I would still like a paper copy though. I find I don't like reading it on the computer so if I win it would be great. Thanks

Garlic Knots would look fabulous in batiks. -- soparkaveataoldotcom
I love the Love Blooms Here series, looks like it will be fun.
Enjoy Germany! I'm going back to Berlin in April. See if you can find some German themed fabric. I could not & may have to design my own on Spoonflower. I love the Garlic Knots pattern as my husband grows LOTS of garlic fro us & friends & family. He just planted 600 plus cloves for next year's harvest. Travel Safe!
Have a great time in Germany! We lived there when our kids were small. It's a wonderful place! Thanks for the giveaway :)
Would love to win this. Thanks for the chance.
I love all the patterns. I so enjoy your blocks, they make me dig into my scrap bin.

I can't believe that it is almost 2014. Wonder how long it will take me to write the correct year on my paper work. I like the aqua and red quilt shown. Those are 2 colors I want to make into a quilt in 2014.

I've been catching up on YouTube Quiltcam episodes while cutting and sewing Step 1 of Celtic Solstice!! Loving the colors and the TriRecs rulers. When I saw the Garlic Knots block picture I read it as Gaelic Knots, y'know it almost works with the pattern. I must have Irish on the brain!
Garlic knots makes me crave pasta ;)
I agree, what a clever name for a quilt block, and is it oh so cute! Who wouldn't love to win a copy of this issue. Enjoy your trip!

The basket quilt and Miss Judy's quilt are both divine. However, I am definitely going to have a go at your garlic one. Hope your journey to Europe goes well and thank you for the opportunity to win a copy of the magazine.
Enjoy your stay in Germany! We lived in Austria for twelve years and you will really love the Christkindlmarkt while in Germany! I love love love the celtic Solstice mystery quilt--my first mystery quilt ever! We have now lived in Ireland for 5 1/2 years and I was able to volunteer the first year in Galway at the IQFOI!! You would be very welcome to stay with us if you ever get back to Ireland! Blessings!
Tried to post already but my computer crashed. Anyway, love the basket and Miss Judy's quilt. However, will definitely be having a go at your garlic knots. Have a safe journey to Europe. Would love to have joined you on this trip.
Enjoy visiting the Christkindlmarkts in Germany! You will pick up some even more fantastic ides! Your Celtic Solstice is my first mystery quilt and it is especially nice as I volunteered the first year of the IQFOI as I have been living in galway these past 5 1/2 years! I loved your colour choices and the photo of the Cliffs of Moher was spectacular! Your garlic knots look fun and funky as well! Blessings!
I like the two color blue quilt design, but love my reds in the place of blue. Have a safe and fun trip.
What a bright and colorful design! I love it.
I hope you packed one suitcase inside another so you have an empty one ready to fill and bring home. Enjoy your trip as I "trip" around in the Celtic Solstice.
I like what you showed us. I haven't seen this magazine yet. very nice sampling

Well yesterday I had a good bday. Went with a friend to one of our fav quiltshops, wooohooo! Came home and sewed on the Tumalo Trail. Then hubby played Mr. Taxi and picked up my best friend and off to supper he took us. Met our granddaughter there. Had a nice meal...Friday night fishfry. Granddaughter came home to spend weekend with us. Sewed some more (4hrs) on Tumalo Trail. The Hexi book would sure make a grand bday prize! Well hope your travels are going well. I'm off to sew more on Tumalo. I'm dtermined to get this done soon so I can get started on a Mystery quilt of yours that our guild is doing. Denise
Someone is going to be a happy quilter for sure
