Flower Bath II

March 27th, 2012

It has been brought to my attention that I do not have the newer version of the Flower Bath pattern in my online store. This will be quickly addressed! The new version is a little smaller at 41.5″ x 49.5″. It is also more easily assembled using fusible grid. I will be making fabric kits, so let me know if you are interested or watch for that addition to the store.

Hope you are having a beautiful spring; the weather in Texas is awesome!

Houston Quilt Show

December 7th, 2011

Last month I had the chance to help my friend Karen work her booth (Home a la Mode) at the Houston Quilt Show.  It was a great experience to see the vendor side of the show.  I have a new appreciation for how hard the vendors work!  It was great to see some of the show and do a little shopping as time allowed.  If you were there, I’m sure it was awesome as always!

Quilt Show

October 15th, 2011

Next week, October 21-23, I will be at the

Oklahoma City quilt show helping a friend in her

booth, Home ala Mode.  I am excited about the

opportunity to market my patterns and kits. 

Hope to see some of you there!

Shipping costs

April 26th, 2011

Today I mailed a quilt and was shocked at how much postage has gone up!  Yes, those higher gasoline prices affect delivery trucks too; I just didn’t give it much thought.  So my shipping charges have gone up on quilts, but patterns are still mailed FREE!

Hope you are finding some time to create.  That is always the struggle since life in general tries to claim every minute of our day!

Thanks so much for teaching me the technique of making watercolor quilts. It was so much fun to learn something new, fun and exciting. Your expertise is awesome, along with your patience. Thanks again for sharing your time in Kaufman today.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

November 12th, 2010

It is my hope that you all have much to be thankful for, such as good health, close family and cherished friends.  In addition to family and holiday preparations, I always look for extra time to spend in my studio to feed that creative urge.  So enjoy next week in whatever way makes you happy!

Bookmarks on sale!

April 15th, 2010

I have two styles of bookmarks left.  One is done from the Flower Bath pattern and the other is from an art quilt titled “Snorkeling”.  They are on sale for $1.50, regularly $3.00.  Great for a small gift!

Big Pattern Sale!!!

February 8th, 2010

All patterns are now 50% off and include free shipping in the USA!  A great time to stock up for yourself or a gift for a quilting friend.  Think Secret Pal or planning ahead for next Christmas gift exchanges.

I am in a spring cleaning mood, though it is still cold even in Texas.  It is fun to spruce up my studio and get things organized and easily accessible.  I like looking for containers that will best hold buttons, beads and other embellishments.  Let me know if you have a favorite method for organizing small stuff!

Fabulous workshop

September 21st, 2009

Last week I had the pleasure of attending a workshop in Marble Falls, TX taught by Katie Pasquini Masopust!  I learned so much about her techniques in creating landscapes with ghost images and different colors.  She was a very good teacher and made the class a lot of fun.  I can’t wait to try out a new project!

Fabric Kits

July 17th, 2009

If choosing fabrics for a project is not your thing, then check out a couple of fabric Kits I have added.  Holiday Tree kit has everything you need for the top, including the border and binding.  Jungle Babies has the fabric already cut for the top, but without borders.  I plan to add more kits soon.  The kits really make your project easier and faster!
