Embroidery Design and Pattern Credits

I hope you enjoy seeing the projects I've enjoyed creating so much. I also want you to know that I have the talents and support of many fabulous people to help with their creation. In particular, I want to be sure you know where I found the beautiful embroidery designs I've used, so you can purchase and use them, too.

With that in mind, here are design and pattern credits for some of the projects you can see on The Quilt Show's set during my appearance. Where a magazine issue is listed, project instructions can be found in the magazine.

Pictures are coming!
