Let's Bind It!
I absolutely love what I do. I love every aspect of quilting. I love writing about it, designing, piecing, quilting and the planning, but I would have to say I most like selecting the fabrics, and this is how I manage to get myself into trouble.
I am addicted to batiks. I love the color saturation, the texture and all that I can do with them. So, with a stack of projects waiting for me to work on, and the Sunbonnet Sue completed, I must get back on track with my 2013 quilting goals. I have a real sense of accomplishment, even though it was a detour. I learned a lot. I now have an appreciation for vintage quilts and the people that lovingly restore them.
Amateur that I am, in this field, I am proud of the work I did on this quilt. As for Lois, it takes a special person to spend her time and skills restoring vintage quilts. I wish her all success in her business, and I hope you visit her website. I think you will find it worth the time.
Well, let's see if I can begin my 2013 Pantone project, or if I will be sidetracked again. Wish me luck!
All best,

Carolyn S. Vagts
Editor, Quilter's World magazine
PS. Annie's has some great online quilting classes available if you're looking to try something new or to improve your quilting skills. It's worth checking out.
Carolyn's designs have been published regularly in several magazines, including Quilter's World. She also lectures and teaches workshops to guilds.
The creative process has been a notable part of her life. She studied drawing, pottery and sculpture in college and received a Liberal Arts degree. She finally found her niche in quilting as a fiber artist. She hopes to bring a fresh, new outlook to Quilter's World.
