Spring is just starting in Paducah, Kentucky. The landscape is splashed with yellow daffodils and forsythia, white wild plum trees, and blushing magnolias. Soon it will be the dogwoods we so love here. To celebrate springtime in Paducah, we’re excited to bring you the Paducah in Bloom quilt! It’s an 80″ x 80″ sampler with 36 unique blocks. A block pattern will be released every day from March 18th, 2020 to April 22nd, 2020.
