Awakening Quilt Top



The blocks on my design wall are from a line called Audra’s Iris Garden by Brannock and Pateck for Moda. They’re lovely prints in chocolate, goldenrod, cream, moss, scarlet and violet. I chose this fabric for a quilt for Heather’s bed, because they’re colors she loves and because they were on sale. If only I’d bought fabric for the setting corners, borders, back and binding while it was in the store. Now the whole line is hopelessly out of print. I was thrilled when I found an online store – Charlotte’s Cottage Quilt Shop near Baltimore – with Audra’s Iris Garden on their shelves. I calculated the fabric I need, placed my order and collected an emailed receipt. But that was March 25. Now it’s halfway through April and no fabric. It’s time for desperate measures. I need to place a call to Maryland. Then, when they tell me it’s out of stock, I need to make a plan B.
