Okay, so this first picture is for Kimberly - only for you friend! My hair is crazy today!
Anyway, I am so excited to share with you Kimberly Einmo's new book, Modern Quilts & More recently published by AQS Publishing. I have known for a long time that the quilt Orange Zest, the one I quilted for Kimberly was going to be on the cover of the book. Yay! So, today I received the book in the mail and I can not tell you how excited I was! Best mail day in a long time!!
Perfect timing on all parts, I actually have Orange Zest in my possession to show off at the HMQS show next week. So, I was so thrilled to take pictures of the book and quilt together. Now I can finally share this quilt I quilted forever ago.
Kimberly has outdone herself and the quilts in this book are fabulous! You will love this new book, I am sure of it. You can purchase a signed copy of the book from Kimberly here.
I have to tell you that I still pinch myself to think that I get to share my quilting with so many people and to be on the cover of Kimberly's book is nothing short of an honor that I am so grateful for.
I also have to give a shout out to the Editor's at AQS for making this book fantastic, the layout is beautiful! Of course I am thrilled and maybe a little bias ;-) towards them since my own book was released in December, but they really do a wonderful job when it comes to their publishing.
So, what do you think of the quilting? I absolutely love it. It was so fun to quilt up.
Look on page 32 and you will find this fabulous quilt.
Yep, my name above. Never gets old.
And, a special treat - I talk about my quilting on page 37.
You can see a few more of Kimberly's fun projects on the back cover. Aren't the projects fabulous?
One more shot of the quilting. I absolutely love this quilt and I am so happy to finally be able to share it with you. One of you lucky readers will get a chance to win one of Kimberly's books, signed by her of course - just leave one comment telling me how excited you are for this book and I will pick a winner in the next couple of days.
Good luck!

Of course, anything by Kimberly is going to be amazing. Congrats on making the cover! And I think your hair looks cute. :)
The white on white is beautiful - I wonder how it would come across if you used blue with white threads - creating a french ambiance - somewhat like redwork
I love your quilt! I can only aspire to get to this level of perfection! I'm new, so right now I'm not even sure on how to quilt very good yet! I would love to have a copy of the book, I'm sure it would give me tons of advice and inspiration! Thanks

I became a quilter at the age of 52 because of modern quilting. I've sewn since I was 8 or 9, continued to make my own clothing for prom, weddings, college and even made opera costumes during college for my work study.
I would love to win the book. Thanks for being so inspiring.
I love what you quilted on the top. Thanks for the opportunity to win Kim's book
Oh wow! I so need an orange zest quilt to go with my dog, a basenji named Zest!.
Love the orange, and your quilting is stunning, as always!
I would definitely love to have this book...I am ashamed to admit you two are total strangers to me! Living in NW Iowa, I really don't have the opportunity to view the modern style quilts except in magazines. I would love to caress this book!
I love these quilts and the quilting. I just purchased a Sweet Sixteen and you both are an inspiration for me. Cudos to you both. I like the direction you are taking quilting.
That looks like a whole lot of eye candy! I canNOT wait to have a good look at the gorgeous quilts inside. Congratulations to you both!!!
Uh oh, I don't think my comment went through….I can't wait to see the book and all of the gorgeous work you both did. Congratulations to you both!
