even before i started quilting in 1979, i was enamored with quilts. when the bicentennial quilt frenzy was in full swing, i purchased this magazine to get an early "fix" of quilting, probably because of the amish quilts included. there are also patterns for dresden plate, gingham dog/calico cat and other traditional plus a few patriotics with shields and eagles and such and even a new york beauty! my taste in quilt styles has broadened a bit, but my fascination/attraction to amish and traditionals hold fast. i wonder who else might have a copy in their book stash? this is definitely a keeper. **** still watching the eagle chicks grow but at this point, i get turned off watching them rip apart and eat rodents. i try to check in frequently enough to catch the first mini-flight, which should take place in the next few weeks. there's lots of flapping and short hops taking place inbetween gross feedings.
