Wee Village by Margo Rose

I don't know if any of you knew about the Wee Village patterns by Margo Rose that were offered as Electric Quilt patterns in 2003.
There was a Yahoo Group that went dormant for quite a while that has suddenly come to life again.
Wee Village at Yahoo Groups
Margo has made her patterns available in pdf format instead of just the Electric Quilt files. My main point is that her individual patterns are now on sale for less than 1/2 price here:
Wee Village Sale at Sova Enterprises

I always thought I would make quilt blocks with the patterns done in redwork or blue work or multi colored embroidery (since I have never been very impressed with my few attempts at applique). Now I want to really get started on this long lost project and I just had to share with everyone who doesn't already have enough to do :)

Lisa Roswell Square

As many of you already know, Lisa Roswell, designer of The Primitive Needle died in a flood accident recently. Some members of the 123Stitch message board are stitching squares for a Halloween themed quilt for the family. I didn't have any of The Primitive Needle patterns but I did have this Jaquelyn Fox - Waxing Moon Designs chart that I have been meaning to stitch and the organizer graciously agreed to accept it for her project.  The fabric is white - I don't know why it looks blue in the picture.

AmericaLTWL

America Land That We Love, Designed by Jean Farish - started on 02-22-2011.
I changed the 2 hearts on each side of the top banner to patriotic hearts instead of the solid dusty rose colored hearts the chart called for. I am also stitching the state blocks in the order that each one became a state (stitching that date below the name of each state).
I outlined the first block with the wrong floss color but I have decided to delay frogging the border on that block for now – frogging is a real motivation deterrent to me and I am enjoying this too much to go to that place.

I believe this chart is now out of print but it has been found on the wayback machine here: CLICK HERE

I downloaded the charts in the early 2000s when they were offered as free charts on her old website so I don’t know if it’s true that all of the charts can be downloaded on the wayback machine.
