Quilts in the Wild
Hello! I'm still here and sewing despite the lack of new posts. I've actually finished two lovely quilts recently, but they are both waiting on summer road trips (to two different locations!) for their final photography sessions. I know it would be fine to take them locally, but sometimes a fun location that fits perfectly makes documenting the quilt that much better. I keep a physical photo album with printed photos of every crafty project I've ever finished dating back over twenty years!
One thing that is ready to be shared is this finished Pin Banner. It's been a full year since I released the Pin Banner pattern and this one was made by special request for a high schooler who earned a varsity letter this year. To celebrate the anniversary, I'm offering 20% off of the Pin Banner pattern through the end of the month, no code needed, in case you have a need for one as well.
I also took my annual field trip to the Minnesota Quilt Show. This year, my mother-in-law and I entered our Cat and Mouse Floppy into the unjudged division. Nancy is the one who taught me how to quilt in the first place and we frequently bounce ideas off of each other. This was her first time entering a quilt into a show and I think she's hooked - we are already discussing what we can make for next year!
After we left the quilt show, we made a quick stop at Gruber's Quilt Shop to see my samples hanging (and buy some fabric!). This is one of the few places that has my paper patterns in stock - if you have a quilt shop and are interested in stocking them, please contact me from the wholesale pattern page of my website.
It was a fun road trip and seeing all the quilts at the show gave me so much inspiration - who cares about finishing items on my WIP list? I just want to start something new!
