My bloggy friends, you were there with me through the thick and thin of the construction of my “Pieceful Kingdom” quilt a few months ago. Thank you, and thank you, for your encouragement when I was making the quilt! Here it is, FINALLY!!!
This quilt was made with the popular fabric line “Family Tree” by Benartex. It was renamed by the editorial staff at The Quilter to be “Pieceful Garden” to suit the theme of the fabrics. The quilt is now back with me, and is slated to be featured in The Quilter’s November Issue hitting the newsstands on September 15!!! I am excited!!!
I should be getting my copy of the magazine any day now, and when I do, I will post more pictures, including close-up shots.
UPDATE (9/7/2008) — click here for BONUS project using the scraps from the kit!
Meanwhile, if you want to read the previous posts on the project, here they are:

Also, for the quilters that are interested in replicating this quilt, I am offering the kits for sale on my website (my FIRST kitting project!).
How gorgeous! I can’t wait to see some of the close-up shots!
Wow! It’s really beautiful Wendy – I adore the little double pinwheels in the sashing. And well done on having it published! How marvellous that must feel!
It’s just stunning, Wendy! Love the colors, the fabrics, and as always, your gorgeous workmanship. I’ll look for it in the magazine.
It’s beautiful Wendy!
