Each are handmade, each are totally unique — and affordable. Follow me on Instagram to find out when they are available.

Here is my All Hearts Come Home for Christmas row quilt. I designed this in 2003 for my son, Ryan, and retired the pattern soon after I gave the quilt to him. Now, I will offer it as a pattern again beginning in October. If you’re interested, send me an email at annie@anniesmith.net and let me know. If you need it before October (because you want to make it for Christmas), just drop me an email too.

It’s a pretty special quilt.

The quilt, hanging from a tree. The reception venue was a friend’s farmhouse lawn, bedecked with antiques everywhere.  A breathtaking event.

Here’s some closeups — their initials “carved” into the tree:

and some nest details. I tried my hand at some feathers here:

Both excellent books — definitely in my Top Ten!
