I kept the purple. It actually was a good moment for me because I realized it really gets to the heart of my issues with the MQG right now (ridiculous judging forms from Quiltcon, the new limited definition of what constitutes Modern Quilting, among other issues). As Kelly so perfectly put it--I…

LET US KNOW IN THE NOTE SECTION -- WHEN YOU PLACE YOUR ORDER -- WHAT NAME(S) YOU WOULD LIKE AS THE "SIGNATURE" ON THE HEART PATCH. IF YOU DO NOT LEAVE A NOTE YOUR HEART WILL SAY "Love, Dad" AS PICTURED. PLEASE READ ENTIRE LISTING -- We have had customers request if they could just buy the heart patch -- so -- we are making that option available for you. The concept of a quilt made from a loved-one's shirt is not our original idea, however, the saying on our heart patch is OUR SHOP'S ORIGINAL DESIGN. Our design is hand-lettered in a permanent, fine tip pen and embellished with a hand embroidered edge. The heart is then easily sewn to your own quilt. We can add any name you wish -- Dad, Mom, Papa, Nana, Uncle Don, etc.

I recently quilted an Octagon Shimmer quilt for a local client. This pattern is designed by Jennifer Sampou. I emphasized the octagon shapes by randomly quilting designs in a radiating octagon. I used a Mark B Gone pen to draw boundary lines and then quilted in between with varying designs. I would suggest using a size … Octagon Shimmer Quilt Read More »

Hi there everyone! How are you doing? Just some days and it’s Christmas, can you believe? I thought to do something a bit different than Holiday projects for this post and created two projects to cele

I made this layout for the Bo Bunny DT for 'Flashback Friday'. I wish I had a lot more heritage type photos to use for an assignment like this but I have to hit up my parents for some old photos. So I wasn't sure what I was going to use for Flashback Friday. Then I was shuffling through my photos and found this photo I recently took of my youngest daughter Meagan. Although she is 9 years old, she is still very much into all her stuffed animals and often carries them around with her. In this photo she is holding her favourite Teddy Bear she aptly named Beary lol! The flashback part of this layout is that the Teddy bear was actually mine from when I was a child. My Grandparents brought it to me from Germany, it used to actually speak German when you squeezed it's paw, but the mechanism that allows it to speak doesn't work anymore. But I love that my children still hold precious something that meant a lot to me as a child. For this l/o I wanted to go with some soft pinks to go with the beautiful creams and browns in the Bo Bunny Timepiece collection that I used here. I've been wanting to use the large clock die cut from this collection and I thought it would work well with the theme of this page. The pink blooms I again made from recycled dryer sheets. Again, super easy to do....just put a few drops of alcohol ink (I used Time Holtz Pink Sherbert for these blooms) or some food coloring in a small cup of water. Dunk your used dryer sheets in the mixture and just blot off on a paper towel.. TIP: IF you find the dryer sheet a bit to wrinkled to use nicely for your bloom and don't want to pull out your ironing board and iron a quick way I smooth out my swatches is to us my hair flattening iron. I just give it a quick smooth with the flattening iron and the piece is ready to work with (also helps dry it quicker too) ....so the next step is to cut some strips from the swatch and gather the two long edges using a needle & thread (I use about 2 and a half strips for the large flower). My daughter made me the flower centers using some bling from the Bo Bunny's Buttons & Bling packages and some seed beads. Here are some close-up views of the above l/o..... If you'd like to see some more amazing layouts made for Bo Bunny's Flashback Friday, go have a peek at the Bo Bunny Blog today! So many heartwarming and touching l/o's made by the rest of the DT girls! Thanks for stopping by! ~Gabrielle xx

Afgelopen zondag hadden wij een hele bijzondere bee met de collega's uit Zutphen en die van Amsterdam, in Amsterdam. Er was geen verkeer, zo vroeg op de ochtend, de trein reed op tijd, hadden we zelfs een trein eerder, en om nu ver voor half 11 de winkel in te stappen...... Dan maar aan de koffie! Heerlijk! En voor wie het weten, de winkel is niet zo ver van het CS Amsterdam. De Dodecagon (do-dec-agon) hangt al in het raam...... Snel naar binnen, naar de collega's naar de Dodecagon, mallen, i spies, aai bare lapjes, slagroomtaart, kopjes koffie/thee, heerlijk soepje. Dan kiezen, kiezen en nog meer kiezen. Is Gerda al klaar terwijl ik nog aan het knippen ben! Het is toch wonderlijk hoe zij met een wieltje, plakstift, aan het werk is, alles in een hand, hup, hup, en klaar! Is er zelfs tijd voor een show en tell van antieke quilts. Waar de hoogte in de winkel zich prima voor leent. En zorgt voor de nodige hilariteit! Sta ik zelf met mijn neus, letterlijk, bovenop de quilt. Wat een idiote foto! Maar als je er dan met je neus bovenop staat, zie je dit! Broderie Perse uit begin 1800, wonderschoon. Aanvankelijk dacht ik dat het een border was, zo kundig is dit gemaakt. Dit is broderie perse 8.0, zo knap. Er is meer moois in de winkel, zoals deze prachtige sterren uit het boek van Willyne Hammerstein. Dan terug naar onze eigen Dodecagons! Wordt er geleerd, gekeken, bestudeerd en gefilmd. En is er nog een klaar! Ook ik kies repro's, maar klaar? Nee, echt niet! Maar niet getreurd, Het begin is er. Juud remember; Better finished than perfect
