Latte Blog Hop Day 7...My Day...

                      
Have you enjoyed all the 
beautiful creations from this blog hop?
Joan of Moosestash Quilting has done such 
a WONDERFUL JOB!!!! 
Thank you Joan!
As for this BEAUTIFUL FABRIC...
Thank you Dan DiPaolo of Clothworks 
for making what is my new FAVORITE FABRIC EVER!!!!

Madame Samm...Not sure how you did it...
But this fabric you had chosen for this hop....
AMAZING...
Just like you...


Well here we go!!!
Got your coffee?
ME TOO!


This little bit is where it all started.
I wanted to do a little applique...and
so I drew out a few cups and the letters
and that was the beginning...YAY! for 
beginnings...


And then I remembered another quilt I had made
for my friend Patricia across the pond...
and then these began to appear...


And before too long...I had an idea
of how this was going to happen.

But the turning point was when my
sweet man came in and declared...
this was his favorite one I had ever done...






And there it was...
I knew I had a keeper.
I began thinking where I would place
it when I was done...
and then I realized...
This is the only place it could go....
Finally the sun came out today
but it was a mud field out there
so...


I just cheated a bit and let the sun
shine in...


and of course...I hung it on my favorite
wall in my kitchen that my sweet man
built for me last year...


and I believe it will stay...


Thank you for visiting me today...
I have loved this hop and all the
wonderful items made...


Please Join Me for the rest of
Today's Lovelies...

  15. Somehow a quilt is even more special when someone tells us it is their favorite. I can see why your hubby thinks that about this one...love it! I looks fabulous hanging up there!

  20. I whole heartedly AGREE with hubby!!! When the hubby compliments a quilt with more than ,"That's nice" it is a day to mark down on the calendar. Something about this quilt spoke to him...perhaps it was the color scheme, the coffee theme, the placement, or maybe it was simply everything about this little gem. BTW, what size is it? If you told in your post, I missed it.

  28. This is darling! Like you, I started with just a single idea that grew and grew. I love it when that happens, don't you? This looks great hanging there and I'd be tempted to leave it there for a LONG time! Thanks for sharing your creation with us. :-)

  29. What a fantastic quilt. It looks so wonderful on the special wall I wondered if you didn't have that all planned in the beginning - perhaps your subconscious was taking over. Best display of all those great fabrics!

  30. I love it, Lana! I am having a cup of coffee and catching up with the hop this morning and this ends up my last stop on the hop. So somehow I ended up "saving the best for last" ... I really love your creation that much. The applique cups are perky and perfect and the creative blocks framing the center are wonderful. You new wall hanging is beautiful and sew inviting. Great photos, too. Thank you for sharing in the hop ... :) Pat

  32. Lana, it is so pretty. I love the simplest beauty of this quilt. I goes so well with the lovely shelf and all the other great details of the room. The applique center is just perfect. Wonderful quilt and photos. Always a treat to stop by.
