modern quilts from the blogging universe

I can finally share some fun news! Martingale & Co. has just shared one of their upcoming books, Modern Quilts from the Blogging Universe. And I'm one of the 18 bloggers who are a part of it!
 
 
My quilt is called "Everything is Coming Up Rainbows."
 
 
It's a twin size quilt pattern based on this mini quilt I made last year for the Love of Solids swap.

"everything's coming up rainbows"
 
It was really great being a part of this book, despite the fact that the due dates for the quilt and pattern were right in the middle of my first trimester morning sickness with Charlotte. That presented some challenges! Now it's fun to see the project come to life. It will be released in early December! Perfect timing for adding it to your Christmas list. You can check out more on Amazon or the Martingale website.

Yay! (Obviously I need to catch up on blog reading, sorry this is a bit later!) That is wonderful, and I think really someone should be talking to you about writing a WHOLE book. I will buy this one, and I would definitely buy one that you wrote!
