new kits!

Finally kits are arriving on my website. I've had lots of requests, and while I generally can't provide a great quantity, I'll do my best. I'm starting with two--the "Tied with a Bow" quilt as well as the cream rose version of "Frilly Farm Bag". I have an extremely limited quantity of each kit, so if you've been wanting to make either project, you might not want to wait.




Each kit contains the exact fabrics used in the original project--the quilt kit is for fabric for the top and binding, and the bag includes all cotton fabric plus the floral handle. Patterns are also included.

an upcoming class!

I'm pleased to announce that on March 19, I'll be teaching Coffee with Friends at Wooden Gate Quilts in Danville. So if you're a bay area quilter, I'd love to have you join me. I understand that some spots have already been taken, so if you're interested, you can click here and make sure you reserve your spot.

This is the quilt that was in the premier issue of The Quilt Life magazine and was designed to commemorate the drive to Houston that Pam and I made that fall.

It's an easy project and a good way to learn how to do fusible web/machine blanket stitch applique.

The class fee includes the pattern, a delicious lunch, and a pack of charm squares from my stash of vintage fabrics for you to use for some of your coffee cups, if you desire. (And if you're like me and prefer tea, you can call 'em tea cups and nobody can argue.)

Also, you might want to check my website...I'm doing lots of downsizing this year and have some great fabrics at equally great prices.
