One of our all time most downloaded patterns is Ariel’s Wedding quilt. The quilt is jelly roll friendly and is a quick quilt to make with very little talent needed for matching seams. At the time I made it, I was a bit at a loss. The gals that were getting married all were decorating …

Made by YOU! Picadilly Circus Edition from Jo's Country Junction

I love seeing quilt that readers make using our patterns. I’ve had LOTS of people make our quilt Picadilly Circus. I think that is because I did the three part YouTube series on how to make it. Today, I have two blog readers who are sharing their quilts. First up is Linda in the UK. …

Made By You!! from Jo's Country Junction

I’m cleaning out my second email. I have been really good and have kept up with my first email account keeping less than 10 emails in that at any time. My second account, my joscountryjunction@gmail.com account has lots. But I’ve made progress and am under 200 emails. I’m happy with that as my starting number …

From the Depths of my Email…and Made by YOU!! from Jo's Country Junction

I know I say this all the time but my email is a little like a black hole.  Things go in there and NEVER come out.  I’d been better, not great, at keeping up with it but then last week with all the family stuff came up and my email got lost yet again.  It’s an ongoing battle.

Today I’m pulling out lots of emails and sharing them here on the blog with you.

This one came from Lynn.  She is busy putting together her Inspired by the Past quilt.   Thanks for sharing Lynn.
