I joined an "applique club" at my LQS, but if you do a google search for "Laundry Basket Quilts", then look up "Applique Affair", you should find it!!! Mine came w/ just the pattern, and then the LQS kitted the fabrics, so I bought the kit as well.

I love your work, style, and variety. :)
My four year old grandson LOVES helping me quilt. His favorite part is to sit on my lap and use the sewing maching. I run it at it's slowest speed and put my hands close to his, NEVER over or he says, "I can do it Nana". He also enjoys looking at quilting books and magazines with me and lets me know what his favorites are, he talks about the shapes and colors and what he thinks would look better. FUNNY, but my son is also much more interested in the quilting process than my daughter or nieces. When I made a wall hanging for my DSIL my daughter just didn't like all the colors and prints in it, when my son saw it he said he loved it, ESPECIALLY all of the colors and prints. Needless to say that I have several ideas for quilts for my grandson and son, my daughter also, but hers are a little harder, so I did join the B/W block swap and she is very excited about it because that is going to be hers when it's done and she is loving the blocks that she has seen!
