I am SOOOO excited to finally see the cover. All of these words were sewn by her quilty blogging friends....see mine??? It's the word 'HUGS' down there on the right. DARN IT.....I'm gonna have to wait until December before it comes out but I guarantee you it will be worth it!!!! Tonya has been one of THE major influences in my quilting.

I was just bragging about Tonya's book to someone today! Isn't it exciting? She has inspired so many of us. You're not so bad about inspiring either! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to get a sneak peek of the cover. Hugs is really cute. I want to get the book.
ReplyDeleteYes, we are all excited about this treasure coming! Congrats to you having one of your blocks on the cover. Such a fun thing!
ReplyDeleteVery exciting. My block is the Joy block on the left. Tonya has been such an inspiration.
ReplyDeleteMe neither. My letters are HUGE, so I really need some guidance. I loved the LibAm challenge and then used the free form word technique in my donation quilt for B.C.
ReplyDeleteAnd how fun to include so many other quilters on the cover, Tonya is so generous!
What fun - looks like a great book. Love your hugs.
ReplyDeleteHiya Hon,
ReplyDeleteThis IS going to be the BOOK OF THE YEAR. With a foreword by Gwen and all that gorgeous eye candy, not to mention Tonya's simple instructions.
I really can't wait until December.
What fun! Congratulations to you and to Tonya. Wouldn't this make a great Christmas present?
ReplyDeleteHUGS!! to cute. Yes, I CAN NOT WAIT for her book to come out... love her quilts!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the cover of the book, I'll definitely be watching out for it. How fun to have a little part in it.
ReplyDeleteI love Tonya also. I made the word "CARE". Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteI was soooo excited to see Tonya's book cover, I didn't read all YOUR words, and ran over to Amazon.com to see if that book had moved from my Wish list to "Ordered" ! Rats - I still have to wait longer! Thanks for the cover photo though - aren't we all lucky to know early when a good quilty book is published by one of OUR blogging friends. 8-)))
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you, Belinda! I'm so excited and so looking forward to Tonya's book. Her's was one of the first blogs I started reading, and she's been such a help AND such a HUGE inspiration!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I have two blocks on the cover quilt! My HOME is right above your HUGS, and MAKE is in the bottom right corner. It is so wonderful that so many of us get to be included in this quilt and book! Tonya is such a generous person.
Now, waiting for December....
ya'all are making me blush. thank you, Belinda. love you too!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the cover. Looks like a great book. I visit her blog every now and then, love the words.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cool book. I'll be looking out for it!
ReplyDeleteHow cool for both of you,Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWow, and I am two below you, Belinda, with my SOAR. Unbelievably exciting--so happy I joined in the project. I agree, Tonya is very helpful and supportive and great at giving feedback. Fun fun fun !
ReplyDeleteWatch out, I am sharpening my already very pointy elbow and aiming it in your direction for a big nudge!
ReplyDeleteSqueak, squeak squawk...(elbow sharpening machine needs oil). Poke poke poke poke, JAB! JAB!
