My sister-n-law and I have been quilting buddies for a long time, unfortunately we live a few hours apart...but when we get together, we always manage to do something quilty! The last time we were together I helped get her going on this quilt.
This is my Urban Abacus Pattern. Connie did a great job on it!
I love the pink with the black and white prints. I just finished quilting it for her and used the pantograph "Gothic Vine". I thought it worked well for the quilt!
The Urban Abacus Pattern has been my most popular pattern out of all my patterns. You can see a few of them on my Sew Kind of Wonderful Flikr Group.
Good job Connie!
....also I got an exciting e-mail today:

Up till today, I was planning on going to Quilt Market for next spring, but now that Houston is a possibility! I'm not sure I could pull it off? I have to admit, I've got butterflies just thinking about it!
...also, it's not to late to enter the Quick Curve Ruler bag giveaway, who wouldn't want a custom made bag, with the colors of your choice!
