Sally at Smiling Sally is hosting Blue Monday! Please check her blog for a list of all of those participating.
For twenty years, I was a full-time quiltmaker designing and making quilts for publication in magazines and books. This particular BLUE quilt entitled "Bountiful Baskets" was in a book I wrote called "Traditional Two Block Quilts".
It is cold and dreary in Colorado today, a perfect day to snuggle up in a quilt!!
Thanks for stopping by,
Sally

You're famous! What a beautiful blue quilt. You know what we use quilts for down here--wall hangings. It doesn't get very chilly. Thanks for sharing. Happy Blue Monday!
I love this pattern. I've never seen it before, probably bz you designed it! I found some of your books on Amazon the other day. I can hardly wait until I'm this good and can make things this beautiful. I've only been quilting a couple of years and find that I do best when someone can physically show me, hands on, how to do something and that's why I take so many classes. Once again, love the quilt!
Sally, what an exquisite quilt! And I see that not only are you a very gifted and talented quilter, but you are also a published writer. Congratulations -- that is quite an accomplishment!
I also enjoyed seeing your photos of the Eiffel Tower, from an engineer's perspective.
I enjoy your blog and appreciate your sweet comments about mine.
Sincerely,
Janie

What a beautiful quilt. Being from Minnesota myself, I know exactly what you mean when it comes to being cold and how handy those quilts are when we need a little something to keep us warm and toasty during the cold fall and winter months. Happy Blue Monday!!
Love , love, love....beautiful shades of blue and great pattern. Wow, a quilt maker! So cool! I bet you've been on that quilt show on hgtv ! I don't have the patience, but love the look of a handmade quilt.
