It only seems appropriate that as I sit here in Houston, getting ready for Quilt Market to begin, I tell you about a beautiful new book that was just released by my friend Michele Muska. Quilting - The New Classics is a practical and inspirational book that covers 20 traditional quilt designs as well as 20 contemporary designs based on traditional designs! I was excited to be asked to design and make a traditional nine patch quilt...and lucky that I have a team of quilters and sewers behind me so I could actually turn it in! To kick off the release of this cool new book, we are having a blog hop...so you can jump around and meet each of the designers. I wish I could show you a picture of the quilt we made, using our La Belle Fleur collection....but that will have to be on Instagram later...I can only manage so many technical connections at once!
Follow along the hop below to see all of the beautiful quilts....I am sure they will inspire you to try your own classic or modern design!
Follow us @frenchgeneral to see lots more quilt inspiration from Houston!

It looks fabulous!
Looks like a fun book--have a great time at Market!
Can't wait to see your quilt! The book sounds great.
I love your new collection! The book looks great!
The book looks so inspiring. I don't know anything about instagram so I guess I won't get to see your quilt until I get my hands on a copy of the book.
I can't wait to see this book in person. I am enjoying the hop....
Can't wait to see your quilt. Love the line.
This book looks amazing! Definitely added to my wish List! :)
There are seriously good quilts in that book!
Really great book! I am now attempting a victorian/romantic wall hanging and trying to make it modern - tricky for me, at best, but I'm having a blast!
Looks like a wonderful book. Congrats.
This book looks like a must-have!!
What a great idea for a book. Congratulations.
