Blogger's Quilt Festival: Scrappy Quilt Entry
Twice a year Amy, of Amy's Creative Side, hosts a Blogger's Quilt Festival over the time for Quilt Market. It has become a huge quilt show online. I love to peruse all the different categories and see all the amazing quilts out there.
Bourbon Street... Batik Style!
Every time we teach a Mystery Class, my mom and I each make a version of the quilt. (See mine here) This beauty is my Mom's Bourbon Street quilt. I am not certain... but I am pretty sure we broke a few laws taking these shots!
Bourbon Street in Confetti Dots
Taking photos of our finished projects is very high on my "Why I Love My Job" list. In fact I should make an actual list someday! (note to self) I try to find new places and spots to take photos, but usually they are in my house or front yard.
Cooper Carry-All in Shadowland II
Here is another project we made for Quilt Market in Houston! This is our Cooper Carry-All tote bag made up in Shadowland II from Kona Bay Fabrics. These prints are gorgeous and so easy to work with! We are making a Diamond Alley quilt in these too! Photos to come later =]
Introducing Bourbon Street!
This is one of our "long-time coming" patterns. We taught this quilt as a Mystery Class back in February.... yes, February. But patterns are now finally available!! Woo hoo! It is a good feeling to get something posted you have been working on forever!
Cooper Carry-All in Waterfront Park
My architecture nerd in me went crazy for this Waterfront Park line! Bridge line drawings, I mean, come on!! Anyways, it makes me happy! Violet Craft designed this fabric for Michael Miller Fabrics.
Introducing Piccadilly Circle!
Dig into your scrap bins and start creating this scrappy paper-pieced circle quilt! This is a great pattern for beginners trying to learn new quilting techniques and experienced quilters alike. Basic foundations, easy curved piecing and a little bit of applique to boot!
