It's a gorgeous quilt. If I had made it, it would be by the front entry where EVERYONE could see it!
I started a Karen Stone several years ago - got 1 block done, all the blocks traced on paper, and all the fabrics sorted - then we returned to CT from Tucson & I never got going on it again.
I'm a Rosamund Pilcher fan, too. I reread Shell Seekers about every third year. I'm going to have to find some Catherine Cookson books. Do you need to read them in a certain order?
