Quilt Festival

I just wanted to pop in and tell ya'll that if you're in the Houston area and going to Quilt Festival this weekend, I am teaching Cathedral Windows in an Open Studios Saturday Nov. 3rd from Noon to 2pm.  I believe the Open Studios area is by the food section.  Please stop by and see me and learn the fun technique of Cathedral Windows!!!  It's free, and Craftsy is sponsoring it!!

 

 

Market

Mom and I had a great first day at Market, lots of good things happening in SunFlower Land (I'll let ya'll know soon)!!  Anywho, here are some photos from our first day and I plan on taking lots more tomorrow!

Anna Maria Horner and myself

I picked up her new Embroidery book today!! Embroidery is becoming super popular again and I'm loving it!!

The Butlers and myself, Amy & David!! Love these two and their awesome fabrics! I just love that her hubby is now designing fabrics!!

Book & Quilts!

Hey ya'll!
Mom and I have been SUPER busy lately preparing for Market this weekend among other things!  First thing is that we just finished our first book!!!  We are working with Annie's Publishing (formerly DRG) on a book titled Sewing Room Accessories-At Home and On the Go!Moda Fabrics, Dear Stella Fabrics and Pellon graciously provided lots of fabrics and interfacing for the projects, we want to thank these fabulous companies for their generosity and support! We had so much fun coming up and working on these projects and we can't wait for ya'll to see them!  It's been really hard keeping it a secret and it felt so good sending the projects off to the publisher! The book is scheduled to be released in May 2013, we will keep you posted about the progress. Here's a sneak peek!

 

We have 3 quilts in 3 different booths this year at Quilt Market in Houston!! We are so excited and can't wait to see them in the booths!  If you're coming to Market this weekend make sure you stop by these awesome booths and check out our quilts!  If you do, make sure you take a photo and put it in my Flickr Group please!!

 

First up, RJR contacted us with their upcoming fabric line called Doodle Zoo coming out in the Spring 2013 and it's being premiered at Market this weekend.  We came up with this cute quilt called Doodle Zoo Train! Patterns and kits will be available in the Spring as well!

 

The amazing quilting is done by Angela Walters!!

 

Second up, Monaluna sent us their new fabric line called Havana and asked us to come up with a quilt using this adorable line!  We came up with this quilt called Havana Blooms and it will be a free PDF pattern on their blog soon!  I will keep ya'll posted when it's available!

 

Again, special thanks to Angela Walters for the AMAZING quilting!! You're the best!

 

Last but not least, we came up with Tile Isle using Dear Stella's Kallianthi fabric line. Pattern will be available on our website in the next couple of weeks!! I will let ya'll know when it's available!

 

I hope you like all of our quilts and please share your photos if you see them at Market!! Thank you to all of the fabulous fabric companies for letting up play with your fabrics...they are all beautiful and ya'll were great companies to work with!!!
