Olympic Celebrations and a bunch of stuff finished!
Busy, busy week! Got a new sample made for a Block of the month I teach (details later), re-did some lettering for a second group of ladies that I join to play with crayons and finally finished two new patterns! Oh, and caught some Olympics action too! In honour of the Olympics, I had to […]
Part 2 of “Designing a quilt without fabric”
At around the same time I was finishing up the tree quilt design for “Old Friend, Northcott sent me another challenge. This one was right up my alley! ROCK fabric! They are introducing some new fabric in fall 2014 called Earth Rhythms and it’s gorgeous. Fabric-wide prints of rock agates in blues, browns and blacks, […]
A new design with no fabric!
Last fall I was invited to submit some designs for new fabric from Northcott. Needless to say it was an interesting process but one I learned a lot from, and, after some serious skill development, enjoyed.

It is another in the Fabulous Flowers series, a series designed to introduce embellishing on small quilt projects. I have lots of students who are curious about yarns and beading on quilts and have […]
Today’s the day!

Northcott has taken out a quarter page spread to promote their new Shimmer fabric line and look what they chose to feature! I will be running a promotion to win the pattern and kit to make the quilt, interested? Details will […]
Joanna’s Tulips
Last fall I designed a nice bright quilt for Northcott featuring a new tulip variety, the “El Nino” (pattern number QQ121 or Northcott PTN1211-10). It showcased their new Shimmer fabric and has met with good success. I brought the sample to The Quilting Quarters to show it off before sending away and one of our […]
