Polly and I have a couple of projects in the new issue of Primitive Quilts and Projects. Above is Polly's hooked rug and this is my little quilt.

If you don't already subscribe to this magazine - you can go here to do so. My little quilt uses wool and ticking scraps - things you probably already have on hand, but the background is a wonderful Moda fabric called Grunge Basics from Basic Grey. I have some of this fabric and if you want this lovely neutral for your quilt - you can get it here on our Etsy shop.
What else is going on? I am finishing up another wool project this weekend. This is the Sailor Penny Rug from our (unfortunately out of print book) Everyday Folk Art. It's made from a salvaged WWII wool Navy blanket and was commissioned by a customer.

The peppermint quilt is fabulous. I'm glad I didn't let my subscription run out! The recycled Navy blanket is wonderful!
Love the quilt!!
My Dad is retired Navy and that penny rug is just beautiful. Love that you used a Navy blanket.
I have that book :) and am dreaming about some projects in it. Just bought it used last year on Amazon. Makes me OHH and AHH every time I page through it. Wish I had a excuse for a little navy sailor in my life. Love it! You are always inspiring. Janita
OMGosh - love them both but the rug is a must have ! Off to find that issue - hope Joanns already has it in stock. Thanks for more beautiful projects. Melody
Love all the projects! :) I need to get that magazine.
I saw your wonderful projects in the magazine Laurie ! Congratulations to you both! Thanks for the tip on Grunge -- awesome!
Love your projects in the magazine and that fabric background is wonderful, love grungy fabrics. I do have that book and was thinking of doing the sailor piece for my brother.

I love the penny rug as my son is career Navy! I found a copy on Amazon!!! Woo Hoo!!!
Laurie - Love the Candy Cane Bouquet - I went right out and got the magazine. One I had not heard of, but it is wonderful. In the instructions it says to iron interfacing onto the back of the fabric for the candy canes do it doesn't fray... but then it say to fuse the candy cane to the background. No mention of fusible web before this. Is there an error in the directions? - thanks for your help. Love your designs. - Debra
Oh please tell me there's a quilt pattern or quilt kit for the American Jane Ducks in a Row quilt you show on this blog! :-)
