All these ideas that run through your head for new projects!!!! Just yesterday I was reading a blog – Exuberant Color – Wanda was talking about a lot of blocks that she had pieced together that are in the “vanilla” category – whites/beige/tan/very light gray ect. and it totally reminded me of a pattern I picked up last year at the Madison Quilt Expo 2008 – Wisconsin. I guess because I had been posting some photo’s of that quilt show the last couple days it was in my mind. The colors on the patchwork in the background of this pattern are darker beige’s than what Wanda had but the idea is the same.
I had gotten the pattern at the vendor booth from the Primitive Gatherings store which is located in Wisconsin; I’m not quite sure where the store is – I think it is northeast of Madison (maybe an hour away?) – maybe some of my Wisconsin readers know where the store is? I didn’t see an address on their web site. I couldn’t find the pattern either but I did get it almost a year ago so I couldn’t post a link to it here so I am taking a picture of the pattern so you can see it. It is a very simple old fashioned looking quilt - country style -there was just something about it that I liked — so why haven’t I made it!!! The pattern designer is Julie Feidt. I could find no link to her name or patterns.
This is a great pattern that a person could use a patchwork of whites/beige/tan and then really spice it up with bright color flowers from their stash of scraps. This could be a totally scrap quilt. One day I will make it — when I do not know 
So I wonder on average how many patterns do y’all have stashed away that you really want to make but most likely well never get around to doing because you are constantly finding new patterns that you add to your stash? I have at least 15 patterns stacked up waiting in line and that is not counting all of the patterns in the magazines that are stacked up with pages marked indicating that there was a pattern in the magazine that had caught my eye — and that is not counting the over 30 quilting books that have patterns (plural) in them that caught my eye which was the reason why I bought the books to begin with
What is a quilter to do — so much eye candy out there and just not enough time to make them all!!
