Hello! Thanks for stopping by Lyn Brown's Quilting Blog. I'm a quilting teacher who loves to share the world of quilting with others. This blog is for sharing free quilt patterns, ideas, instruction and inspiration. Take a look around and don't forget to leave comments and questions!

Happy Halloween! I visited another quilt shop, quite by accident, while down Temecula way last week. It is called Pieced with Love in Murrieta near the intersection of the 15/215. Pieced with Love is a beautiful shop with a great variety of fabrics offered.

Admit it! You’ve seen ’em! All quilters have! UFOs! Not in the sky, but in closets and cabinets, in bags and boxes… Our quilting UFOs- UnFinished Objects!!!
When I was at my Friendship Group’s Quilting Retreat in the local mountains a few weeks ago, we managed to fit in some time shopping at the local quilt shop, Mountain Quilter’s Cottage.

It is time for another swap in my NOCCCD Classes in Cypress, Fullerton, Buena Park, Anaheim and Yorba Linda, CA. This time we are swapping Red Orange and Yellow Orange 8″ squares. And we are making this very cute 48 Carats quilt.
