Quilt Maker: Laura Boehnke
From American Patchwork and Quilting, December 2007

With the hustle and bustle of the holidays approaching, quilt tester Laura Boehnke stitched up a four-block version that can be finished in just a few hours. Using plaids, stripes, and prints from the Farmhouse Cottons and Home Sweet Home collections by Joined at the Hip for Clothworks, Laura created a wall hanging with folk art appeal. "Instead of a satin stitch, I sewed a blanket stitch with black thread around the appliqués to set off the shapes, soft colors, and unique designs of each tree," Laura says.

Quilt tester Laura Boehnke's rendition of "Spun Sugar" using the Linda Potts and Marie Kelzer collections both from Westminster Fabrics features a beautiful tulip print.
