I’m always attracted to beautiful embroidery work. When I saw Kathy Shaw’s books and her work I had to learn more! If you were curious about crazy quilts and stitches, you’ll love this chat!
Heidi Parkes tagline is ‘Artist - Quilts - Mending ‘ and I am intrigued by that. Quilts and Mending on the same line? Heidi will change your mind on what that means.
Leslie Jenison and I have been friends a long time, it might have started when we both did a ‘use this Nancy Drew Fabric’ challenge! She is an award winner quilter, fabric designer, and extremely amazing quiltmaker. Leslie and I chatted about how to stay healthy so we can quilt a very long time.
Lissa Alexander's newest book is all about scraps and it's fantastic! She is also the director of Marketing for Moda Fabrics, which means she is the organizer of getting all the amazing things about Moda out for us to learn. I've worked with Lissa since the first year I went into business. I'm also lucky enough to have gotten a bit of time to have her tell us about the new Color Cuts that Moda is doing!
I have a question before i start my block.. read on!
Most of the time I can do the block to show you, this is one of those rare times when I had so many deadlines I just could not fit it in, grrr... did that ever happen to you?
As soon as this stretch of travel teaching is over I'm making her block first! Now my question....
Here are my first 3 blocks
I'm trying to decide where to put colors on my bridge.
By the way, did I ever tell you the shipping department LOVES bridges? Guess who will get this quilt?

A - I'm leaning towards a black bridge, then maybe behind it the sea life print from my friends Franny & Jane.
B - Or I could do similar to Yavonne's with the black/white bridge and use my aqua in the other places
PS.. my aqua fabrics are not as pale in real life
Which way would you go.... A or B?
