The mojo is definitely strong. Available time, on the other hand, is fleeting, so I'm trying to make the best use of it. I'm adding things to my to-do list faster than I can finish what's already there. An age-old story, right?

ROUND-UP
When I began to consider featuring Greek Key quilts in this issue, I was surprised how few examples I could find to share. But something about them has fascinated me since I made my own Keychain, which was actually inspired by a chair at my local Starbucks. True story!
I was pleased to happen upon Dizzy by Tiffany/The Tiny Seamstress, and happily, she has a pattern available too. It's made with a jelly roll, and I love the mix of solids and prints.

Also by Tiffany is a second version - a baby quilt made with just one square with a few extra strips added. Genius.
The May is for Makers campaign was begun by Lindsey/ LRStitched as a way of supporting indie pattern designers, reminding them that 'while we all love something for free, we also value time and artistry and we are willing to give our support.'
