Take it up a notch!

I have to say I saw this this am in our flickr group and could not take my eyes off them. I love the colors, the balance just everything about them.  I remember Meg when she did lots of handbags so I am just over the moon with her amazing quiltworks!! Take at the look at the stocking on her blog..Her blog is called Boutique Nut Meg Designs and I go there for the music!!!  Seriously such talent so happy for all her growth..amazing. Really really great stuff can’t emphasize it enough!!!! Let me say this that Jane of Quilt Jane designed that fabulous star pattern….blushing I assumed it was from the olden days..never assume!!!!  Called the Star and Block 21 !!!She also has the cutest dog..

Just a quick peek!!!

Our girl Monique has been busy with Girls World Vibe!!  So darn wonderful!!!  Look at Carrie as one piece of fabric, almost didn’t recognize it as a drape. Brown is just the bomb and a splash of pink behind! The quilt ,the pillow, just wanting to be adored!!

Monique I’m moving in!!!

Bird Love!!

Who doesn’t think of Portlandia’s PUT A BIRD ON IT! just love that satire.  So anyway you all know I hand sew sequins on everything so why not a bird!!   So here is the debut of my felt birds with sequins and felt flowers.  Pre-cut flowers can be found on etsy.  Feel free to pin on Pinterest or Pinify on Facebook!!  How do we work? How do we get anything done?  I like you get inspired by all the pinning that I just get busy and start creating!!!  Let me know what you think  of my friends below and of my incredible quilting technique I do enjoy it though!! These lovebirds are great for Valentines! I’m having fun in Ct with George and you??

That was fast!!

sometimes..(if I am in a good mood)..I’ll pick randomly someone on twitter or facebook to send some fabric to.  I am so fortunate that the recipients display a level of good fortune like winning the lottery and it makes me feel so good inside.  So last week my victim was Susan (Sew Darn Simple) who gets me every time I see that little kitty appear on twitter!!  So I sent them not thinking much I really really don’t expect much cause I think that’s not the point it’s all about good cheer and having fun.  So the next thing I know she has created these amazing patchwork Box Pouches that deserve a french name like ohhhh lllllaaaa laaaaa!!! They are just the most amazing pieces of art work!!  Love anything quilted !!!  OK so she’s offering them to the winner of her raffle!! She’s offering them now so go make a comment please for me!!!!!  Visit her on ETSY she has an amazing following and creates the greatest Box pouches also check out items for that teen in your life great hipster bags!!

We Heart you!!

Just sharing some Valentine Love!! We made these bouquets last year and thought we would share again.  So these are made with a big heart punch, then glued back to back on wire stems, then finally position into a bouquet.

One is photocopied old music sheets, one is old valentines that have been copied and one is comprised of doilies.  All of these items available on ebay or etsy!! You have plenty of time to make them before the big day..show us yours in our flickr group Sis Boom Sightings.

Oh and we love you for coming by!!!! Now leave a comment or else..:)

She’s done it again!!!

Lynn Harris of Little Red Hen demonstrates her love for color and the wonderful way she uses solids to create intricate rhythms !!  She is extremely clever and I could never thank her enough for such incredible beauty.  I am so grateful to Lynn and Monique of Sew Fun by Monique for their talents with Crazy Love.  I feel super blessed to be able to bring to the quilting community new takes on old techniques.  These are just amazing quilts with the ability to inspire and show you different configurations of the Crazy Love collection. And we are not stopping here.  2 more mystery guests will be showing their talents with this fabric collection so stay tuned..Thanks Lynn for being the amazing confidant quilter you are because you show others how easily it can be done..Hats off!!

The unstoppable Hickity Pickity!!

Most of you know our gal Judy Buchanan because she stops by all of your sites and facebook pages and cheers you on.  I am so impressed with how she runs her business and just this evening I discovered her facebook page filled with enthusiasm from her followers!!  Make sure to like her on facebook and get inspired by her wonderful colorful world. She has a shop in Florida, an etsy shop, a website that you should follow and a fun blog .  She does it all so beautifully and like all the friends of Sis Boom she is so not afraid of color.  As a fabric designer I look forward to seeing how her eye interprets the collection and how she sees it working in her designs.  It’s an amazing win win. Georgia Handy is the photographer took the shot of this little girl for Judy and I tell you eye popping.  Lots of talent!!!  Hats off to a super 2012!!!!
