Green Gables

The novel American Quilting chose for the shop hop was Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. I read this book as a teenager and instantly fell in love with it. I’ve always wanted to visit Prince Edward Island, though I suspect I really want to see Prince Edward Island in the 1880's. I love the antique bed American Quilting had draped with a classic Log Cabin quilt. I seriously covet their wooden ironing board, too. Maybe I should haunt eBay until I can find one to make my very own. I wanted to buy a kit for the scrappy purple star quilt I saw hanging outside the shop, but they didn’t have any. Instead, I bought a fat quarter of every purple print in the store. I still don’t have enough to make the quilt, but I can certainly collect purples until I do.
