Modern Patchwork magazine is on stands now! There are so many great projects in this magazine! And I'm a little excited and YELLING about it because one of my projects is published in it! The OUTDOOR CONCERT QUILT!!! I will try to settle down a little bit but it is always so rewarding to share my work with others! This quilt has an oil cloth bottom to keep you from getting a wet bottom when going to an outdoor concert, play or picnic.  It also has a pocket inside in which you can safely carry a bottle of your favorite beverage (my favorite is Ting! and that is a soda not a wine, just in case you were wondering) and a couple of glasses once the quilt is rolled up and tied into a bag.  The outside also has a pocket to hold your tickets, car keys and some cash. The magazine also has some fabulous patterns in it for fabulous bags, quilts, a laptop cover (I really need to make one of those!) and other fun stuff.  I hope I have made you excited about reading...
