I have to admit, today is the first time I have actually read the narratives in a new quilt pattern book. For years I have purchased beautiful pattern and design books, thimbed through them to follow a specific block construction, and then put it away when the project was done. The histories, feelings, inspiration they contained was ignored because I had a deadline and wanted a quick finish for the effort.
Wow I have been missing soooo much by that “quick” solution or just get it put away behavior. I will take more time to slow down and absorb the beauty of the author’s words before diving into blocks, templates and projects. 😁😉
