A sneak peak from a top secret photo shoot
I went to my friend’s farm yesterday for a top secret photo shoot. It is only top secret because I took pictures of samples of my next two quilt patterns but since they aren’t ready, I can’t share the pics yet. And it is killing me because I am so excited about them. I better get cracking on finishing the patterns. But, I can show this great shot. I brought along the Bella version of By Sea or By Land and it stole the show, or at least it stole the shoot when it came to the air stream. The blues in the quilt and awning are just amazing together. Thanks again Hilary and...

Read MoreA Birthday Quilt
My wonderful brother-in-law just had a birthday and was long overdue for a new quilt. He was my great behind-the-quilt model for the Star Gazer and By Sea or By Land beach photo shoot and mentioned how much he loved some of the Storyboek 2 prints. He loves to dive and always shares the tasty fish and scallops he gets so it only seemed fair to make him a special quilt. I used Birch’s Urchin Shells Shroom, Kelp Play, Bubble Play and Bubble Life sashed with Kona Snow. I love how versatile this collection is and how mature and sophisticated this quilt turned out. Here is a close up of the quilting. I received a copy of Angela Water’s quilting book for my...
