The bus went by today and it’s always a trigger for longing..It went by so fast and yet I am so grateful to be present for all of it. There is so much that can take us out of the day to day , we see it all the time. I ‘m just so glad to have felt all the good the bad and the ugly. There is something so precious about being present and available to our kids. I love mine to bits and I do miss the wonder that they experience in front of you every day..It’s exquisite. So when I saw this beautiful quilt on the beach that Jane from Maiden Jane made it made me miss their youth even more. She created something so beautiful that will be packed with memories over the years! Have you met Jane be sure to follow her she is delightful. Crazy Love is no longer being produced but lots of places carry them. Here’s one place I found. Quilt Home has a ton!!

Lucky Girl has lived up to it’s name incredibly and hasn’t even made it’s debut!! It’s just simply perfection for quilting. Marsha Moore has shared her direction with me and I couldn’t be more excited about it..She is so good at what she does..I saw these and had to share. These are such terrific fodder for your Lucky Girl Quilt!! It should ship beg October or possibly sooner so get those pre-orders in so you can fill those orders. We love our quilting community. Marsha you delight us in every way possible!!! So what’s your fave star? stripped or simple triangles..

Star Quality

I can say that because Michele Conroy Andy Whitby from My Georgie Boy hasn’t put the binding on yet. This is drop dead gorgeouness at it’s finest. Holy Cow!! Made in Australia I’m sure she will ship to the US. This huge beautiful double quilt is amazing made from Circa!! Only one available!!! I am so inspired by this each block looks like framed artworks. Way to go my Aussie friend!! You are on fire!! I had the wrong name posted..forgive me Michele!!
So there you have it !! Hawthorne Threads has plenty on reorder so you should not have a hard time finding it!!! Make sure to put your name on the list or contact her!!

Love the Dreaminess of the photo!!

Check out this stunner from Jack and Mae!!!! We woke up and just had to share..lots of tutorials on line just google rag quilts. These make great gifts because they are not as labor intensive a good beginner quilt I should say. My daughter made one at sewing camp when she was 12. I love the mix of Bohemia and the exuberance of color. Such a beauty. Sarah and Liz we love what you are up too keep it coming we want to see. They also make sweet tea wallets so you are never without your fave..very cool.

xo Jennifer

I really do because it’s my go to glue!! I buy the mat but the glossy is great too. Now listen if you have perfection issues leave them in the garbage by the door..seriously they so get in the way of any great art!! Here’s how I do it..I hate gloves..that’s why I’m always covered with glue and glitter but if you need plastic gloves this could be the time. Get out large great scissors the ones for fabric only. Using a cutting blade and a cutting mat is the best but really it’s not necessary. I do it all freehand lends to the handmade quality. Also the Accuquilt Go Baby is perfect for this . I love using for this, like the circles and hearts. Try to have a bunch of stuff cut before you start you don’t want to leave once you start. Dust off your suitcase. These old suitcases are great, I don’t think I’d recommend a samsonite because frankly they are so rounded and slippery but what do I know? Get your pieces together and start laying things down and butt right up against the edge. Just get a sense of your design. Take them off and then begin putting mod podge down lay fabric over and sponge brush mod podge again over that. Take your time and this is a no judgement no self criticism zone. The wonderful thing about mod-podge is that it is so forgiving. I’ve been doing these suitcases for 20 years mostly with old wall paper paper and it’s a hoot, the next morning when it’s dry it’s like fairy’s came in the night to make it all perfect. Seriously, it’s such cool stuff. So lay them down on sponge brushed suitcase as it lays down go over the fabric once again with sponge brush. Overlapping is cool no worries just make sure there is glue everywhere. Do one side at a time and then the sides let dry and Voila!! The trick is to get through the ugliness most folks give up..or think they are doing it wrong. If there are areas that don’t come together easily lay a circle of a square on it. Camouflage. This is where Accucut Go Baby come in handy! or do some fancy fussy cutting..Melissa P. can show us a thing or two!! Ok get the modpodge off the scissors pronto..even using nail polish remover because I have at least 50 pairs of scissors with glue on them. I wish I wasn’t exaggerating. Try to get fibers off the suitcase but don’t get crazy. I really want you not to be fussy on the first one then you’ll find your true North after doing a few!! oh and I have John Mayer singing in the background that seems to help!!! xoxoxo Amy Anderson, Lovely Amy Anderson writes a blog Mod Podge Rocks and can answer any questions!! Get to know her. I also recommend a mat acrylic sealer keeps it from sticking. I want to see yours. xoxo


Late addition!! Thanks Amy
