Featured Quilt - A Love of Nature
This captured our hearts, not to mention we've never seen opossums on a quilt before. This sweet quilt, Woodland Sweethearts by Dee Robinson of Eddyville, KY, quilted by Anita Shackelford, was on display at AQS QuiltWeek Paducah 2024 as part of the 1st Entry in an AQS Paducah Quilt Contest exhibit. Take a look at how she incorporated wool into the quilt. |

Follow Kellie's Quilting Journey
Kellie Beckwith grew up in a family of crafters, so it came as no surprise when at the age of 15 she decided to take up quiltmaking. By 21 she was drafting her own patterns on graph paper and found herself drawn to timeless and traditional style of reproduction fabrics.
In 2020 she saw an idea of combining crochet with quilt blocks on the internet and decided to create a neater and simpler way of approaching this concept in her quilt designs. Soon others were asking for her to share the crochet fusion technique. See a quilt made with this technique and other quilts from Kellie's quilting oeuvre.
