I hope everyone enjoyed the blog hop featuring the Ruby’s treasures fabric line from Barb Eikmiere. After being asked to participate in the hop and deciding which block I would showcase, I thought about an old box of old Kansas City Star patterns that I had. I dug the box out and discovered that I have 49 original patterns from the Star newspaper that were Ruby McKims designs.
I didn’t know at the time that I had picked a design from one of the patterns that I had.
I looked through all my patterns to see if I had any of the patterns that the other hop hosts had used. I didn’t, but I do have the one that Barb made using the beggar block pattern and her Ruby’s treasure fabric line.
What fun it was to discover that I had the original block pattern that had been published in the paper.
I hope you enjoyed the blog hop and the winners are Gloria Cotten for the fat quarter bundle and Kathy Cummings Slaughter for my e-book. Congrats ladies!
Have fun and enjoy using The Ruby’s treasures fabric line!

I really liked seeing all the old patterns. I had collected some old paterns they had been cut out but I didn’t care. They made me think of my grandma. It was a very sad day when my house burned to the ground. Nothing could be saved and just being able to look at these was wanderful to me. You never see them anymore. I’m just trying to find some of the old patterns to get copies of so I can make the old style quilt’s I had thank you for your time and consideration to read this and to keep this site up for more people like me to just come up on
