Hello cute people!!!
Today I want to announce that on Saturday November 9th...
there will be an event to celebrate all things
Quilty Fun!
Hosting this event is
in Logan, Utah.
This is a beautiful quilt shop
owned by my friend Kris and her husband Mike.
owned by my friend Kris and her husband Mike.
If you have been to an event there...
you know that they know how to put on a party!
The day will start out as a trunk show where
I will show all of the projects in the book one by one...
and you will get a chance to see them
up close and personal.
There will be giveaways also...
YaY!!!!
I will of course have my Bee in my Bonnet row along quilt there
and I will be talking about how this quilt came to be
and all about the row along on the blog and finally the book!
I will be doing a book signing while there...
so bring your book or pick one up there:)
Following the signing will be a lovely luncheon
and then you are invited to stay and sew with me!
I will walk you through each step of making my spool blocks...
and the quarter square triangle blocks...
For the sewing machine mat/cover
which is one of the projects in Quilty Fun.
You can use it as a mat...
and also tie it on as a cover:)
It fit's a featherweight and also my Bernina ...
so I'm sure that it fits most machines out there.
It's plenty wide but...
You could add a row on the end if you need it taller.
The spools on the front...
are actually cute little pockets ...
to keep your sewing machine notions close at hand:)
You simply tie it on the machine at the sides for a cover.
You can bet that this handy little mat/cover will be
traveling with me to every quilt retreat from now on...
to use while I'm stitching away:)
As you know...
all of the photography for the book took place in my home...
here are a few shots that you may not have seen before.
I will have each and every project at the trunk show.
So come and join me while I talk about each one of the quilts...
and also the mittens runner...
the cups pillow...
and the fall leaves quilty...
and of course the sewing machine cover:)
And if you are so inclined...
bring along some bits and bobs from your stash
to sew along with me!
I promise it will be fun!
For all of the information
about this event and
also to sign up...
I hope to see you there:)
Have a quilty kind of day...
and sew it like you mean it!
