Eggs that stand on end and forsythia in bloom indicate Spring has arrived in Boones Creek and Tennessee Quilts.  As you may know, on the exact moment of the equinox (7:44 a.m. eastern time this morning); eggs will stand on end.  My brother has been testing this theory for much of his life — he has a lot to do.  Today’s test was a success and confirmation of the arrival of Spring.  Have a terrific day.

This is the first of 4 shop samples we are doing from Jan Krentz’ new book, Quick Star Quilts and Beyond.  We started these when Jan was here teaching in October.  This one in Kaffe Fassett fabrics turned out great, don’t you think?  This design is on page 71 of Jan’s book. It finishes about 80 x 80.  This one is labeled “easy” and it is.
