Hello Friends, I am glad you are back for a visit. For the past few years, I have the honor to have my designs featured in new publications every year. And this year, I have a first editorial feature in Australian Patchwork & Quilting!! I am beyond excited that my Wildwood Way quilt is featured in their latest issue Volume 27, Number 4.
Being featured in Australian Patchwork & Quilting is extra special to me — because I remember flipping through the pages of the magazine at Rogers Sewing Center when I was a beginning quilter, and just marveled at the quilts featured in that magazine. For those who are new to this blog, Rogers Sewing Center is my quilting mother ship where I made many sweet friends who have encouraged me greatly in my quilting journey. So, if you are ever in northwest Arkansas, give Rogers Sewing Center a visit! You will be so loved there.
Wildwood Way is made with RJR’s first digital print Wildwood Way fabrics! Look up the fabrics at your local quilt shops the next time you go shopping because the prints are absolutely STUNNING! Click here to take a look at the fabric swatches. You can see in the following picture that my blocks take on an off-centered overall layout, and is made entirely with half-square triangle units. Think stash-busting! :-)
Meanwhile, curious mind would like to know what you do to stash-bust! How often do you make half-square-triangles when you stash bust?
That’s all for now. I need to get back to sewing while everyone is still asleep…. till next time!

Such a lovely quilt, Wendy!!! I love stopping by Rogers Sewing Center!! I always get a hug from Dan and Rhonda!!!
Congratulations! Such lovely purple fabrics.
Those fabrics, and the HST, are wonderfully YOU!!! That magazine is total inspiration and your creation is aptly suited. Hugs…………….
Beautiful quilt and fabric!!
I’ve been on Windham’s website and cannot find “Cozy Castles” to purchase or download. I also cannot find a way to download “Sleeping Cats” which I absolutely love. I’m such a fan of your work and really would like to get both of these … especially Sleeping Cats for my daughter.
Suggestions? Help?

Very nice feature and quilt.
Those digital prints are beautiful. I really like your stash busting quilt. Congratulations on making Australian Patchwork and Quilting. I haven’t seen the magazine in years, but like you I always drooled over the amazing quilts.
P.S. I saw where Paddington’s creator passed away today.
Congratulations, Wendy. It is a beautiful quilt and those fabrics are gorgeous. I’ll bet Rogers Sewing Center is thrilled to have been your beginning – a real feather in their cap!
