The Latest from Allie Aller - "Idaho Sugar"

1905 Allie Aller

Because Allie puts so much workmanship into each of her quilts, she doesn't make many; so it's time to celebrate when she finishes a new one and she's sharing her latest with TQS.

Idaho Sugar - 68" x 68" - See if you can spot why Allie named it this. And take a look at the back. It has that little extra something.

You can see the beginnings of this quilt in Show 1906: Crazy for Crazy Quilts with Allie and Barbara Cline.

Allie, I love your work -- but most of all, I love your heart. Thanks for your presence on The Quilt Shoe.

Allie you are a genius! I really enjoyed your show and you have inspired me to create a quilt using my grandmother's hand crocheted lace. I love this lace but wanted a way to pass it on to future generations, you have given that to me. Thank you ever so much.

Totally enjoyed the video and want to save this one for the future to make; so unique. Thanks for providing!

The "Idaho Sugar" printed in the fabric used in a block near the center is possibly the origin of the name. A tremendous amount of work in each of Allie's quilts makes each one very special.
