Arnold is recovering from his heart attack last summer. He sent photos of a reception that a local quilt shop hosted in November to celebrate the Moda fabric collection named for him. Friends and neigbors came to say hi. This is his cousin Cheri who made him a miniature Christmas stocking from the selvages from the fabric line.
The shop is Angelics:
A Quilters Haven in Canton, Ohio
Many of you sent get-well notes after the heart attack. They were greatly appreciated. He sent well-wishers a handmade reply.
And I received a handmade Christmas card of antique prints.
Arnold's Attic came out last fall. It reproduces
turn-of-the-20th-century prints from Arnold's stash in his attic.
Here he's sitting in front of a top made from the collection.
Here's a free pattern for this Ohio Star Puzzle.

I found another quilt made from Arnold's Attic prints
at the Etsy store called Pieces of Pine.
If you still have your Jelly Roll strips this strip quilt
would be a good way to use them.
Arnold says he's doing well. His many friends are glad to hear it.

So nice to see the pictures of Arnold at the quilt shop reception.
My thoughts and prayers for him continue.
The man is a treasure! Happy to know he is feeling better. Thank you for sharing with us Barbara.

Help please..
I found a picture of a quilt with a nice block pattern in internet. Unfortunately, there was no title to or a label. Maybe there is somebody in blogland can help me? I would intressted the name and perhaps the history of the pattern.
It was a wonderful two-color quilt in blue and white. I made a sketchy picture and put in my blog.
I would be happy to answer a helping.
greets from Berlin/Germany
