For the last several days I've been receiving so many orders for my pattern City Park, and all of the orders have been coming out of Ontario Canada...one was from Australia, but there was definitely a trend coming out of Ontario. What was going on? I'm always happy and honored when someone orders patterns, but when a bunch of them are coming out of the same place for the same pattern, I get so curious! Well the puzzle was solved today...a lovely woman from Ontario called to order City Park, and I thought, "another one!" The lady had been to a large quilt show over the weekend, and apparently a quilt store had made up City Park, and they must have done a wonderful job, because the orders keep coming in. The lady gave me the nicest compliment, she said that it looked like a modern Amish quilt; you can't get better than that! So to all of the quilt stores that make up our quilts for samples, and kits THANK YOU!!! You are representing us well, and we really appreciate you!

Oh my goodness, Cherri the detective! You so deserve this and it is like a modern day Amish quilt.
It is to me all that is fabulous about patchwork and quilting...a modern interpretation of a wonderful tradition.
I was wondering have you ever done a quilt-a-long to show people how to do it correctly? Cause I would be in like flyn..whoever flyn was

Also, despite it being JUNE, it's still COLD up here, so we need more quilts!

Hi Cherri! See if you can get a picture of it. I'd love to see the quilt that inspired so many!

How exciting, and I agree it does look like a modern Amish quilt.

Hi Cherri, so how can I order this pattern from you? It's great! BTW, "Elizabeth" is beautiful.

This quilt has been driving me insane! I have seen it in SO many different places lately, and finally tracked it back here. It's absolutely amazing!
