I know this isn't exactly a picture of a quilt. But it's a "quilt in waiting". Would anyone be interested in a Jane Austen themed BOM next year? Let me know.

A friend of mine, Karen Gloeggler, wrote a quilt book of quilts inspired by Jane Austen's books a couple of years ago. It was published by APQS, I believe. I have a version of her Northanger Abbey quilt in the book. I finished stitching down the binding while Hurricane Sandy roared through. However, I do not believe any of the quilts featured appliqué, although I remember vintage handkerchiefs in one design. Jane herself actually made a quilt, which is on display in England. English paper-pieced diamonds. It was the inspiration for Karen's book.

I love Jane Austen. Would love to see a BOM with her and her books (and heroines) featured.

I would love a Jane Austen themed quilt! I know someone else did one a while back, it would be fun to compare.
Another fun one might be a "No 1 Lady's Detective Agency" quilt. An opportunity to use batiks, and maybe throw in some wildlife squares as well!
Or what about an Audobon quilt? Various birds.....

Hi Erin,
A Jane Austen themed BOM?? YES PLEASE, that would be fantastic. You don't hear from me much but I read every letter you write. Big hug for you from the Netherlands.
