I took the first day of a quilting class today at Elaine's Quilting Block here in Salt Lake. Yes, a new beginning for me to really learn the techniques of quilting correctly. I quilted with my mother as a girl, but wasn't feeling very confident on making one on my own. So I bought new supplies and with my old college sewing machine am cutting, pressing, and sewing away. I figure if I am going to design quilting fabric, I might as well learn how to quilt correctly!
Speaking of, Coquette is currently on saleĀ from Northcott, and I just found out that Love Nest will be on sale in August and hit quilting stores January 2011. I hope to be posting samples of that line soon enough.
I also wanted to let you know that tomorrow's $1 item at Design House Digital is going to be from me:). Check out these birdie brushes:
Can I also report that it is the loveliest thing to be home with my kids? Siri and I went on her field trip to the Clark Planetarium on Friday with her kindergarten class. The girls and I have made a lot of craft projects and I'm just feeling a lot less stressed out about things in general. And I've been able to work on several designs that were only half way finished! That has been a real joy.
