Friday Favorites: Meg Callahan
I am inspired by so many things, I decided that on Fridays, I will highlight a favorite person, thing, or idea. Maybe you will be inspired too! See all past Friday Favorites here.
<><><><><><><><><><><>
The other night I was at a Seattle Modern Quilt Guild meeting, sitting next to Season (another interviewee here on the blog, coincidentally), and who should sit beside me? Meg Callahan. Meg (who is the cutest, by the way) is a quiltmaker whose work I have long admired, and I think I was the last person to realize that she’d moved to Seattle about a year ago. (I’m so lucky to be around such talented people!) Anyway, I really wanted to know more about her work and she agreed to let me dive a little into her process.

You Inspire Me To Quilt
Last year, I got an email from my friend Cheryl, asking if I would like to contribute to a new book she was writing. I would have said yes before I even heard the project description, but what she described sealed the deal for me. You Inspire Me To Quilt is for all of us who are constantly presented with those sometimes harebrained, sometimes, off the wall, and sometimes sweet and inspirational ideas from our loved ones. As I contributor to the book, I was asked by Cheryl to take one of those ideas and turn it into a quilt. I was excited because I knew exactly what I wanted to do.READ MORE

Update: This pattern is now available for purchase in my shop! An easy quilt pattern for any skill level.
I recently finished this commissioned quilt made from baby clothes and now that it is safely in the client’s hands, I wanted to share it with you and talk a little about it. It was so incredibly fun to make! Her original request was for a quilt using her son’s clothes, sized to fit his twin sized bed. READ MORE
