Sorry it's been so quiet around here for the past month or so. My husband is a high school teacher/coach and we were finally able to vacation in July after football and baseball stuff was on a little break. Anywho, I've been super busy around here with lots of fun/creative stuff happening....more on that another day.
Today, I was LUCKY enough to go hear Angela Walters speak and give a class on machine quilting!! AH, can you believe it?!?! For those of you who don't know who the talented Angela Walters is, I suggest going to her blog Quilting Is My Therapy and see all the fun stuff she's got going on over there! She has a blog where she tells you what she is up to, a portfolio of a bunch of her amazing work, and a fun quilting forum where you can connect with other quilters! She is an AMAZING machine quilter who quilts all of Tula Pink's quilts as well as a bunch of other really cool people. Her first book also came out this summer called Free Motion Quilting, which you can purchase here on Amazon or here on her blog to get a signed copy. I HIGHLY recommend getting her book and I cannot wait for her next one to come out this fall!
Angela, it was a pleasure meeting you today and I learned so much from your class and presentation! Thanks for all your hard work and inspiring so many!
Enjoy the photos, I took a TON of photos of her in action but I'll only share a few today!
